Sunday River
Ali and I had a great time at Sunday River. The only complaint was that it was a little on the cold side. A few days were below zero with a wind chill of negative 25. On those days we could only stay out for an hour at a time. Our hotel was great — slope-side with a heated outdoor pool and hot tub. There is nothing like sitting outside in a hot tub when it’s 0 degrees and snowing. Our room had a kitchenette, which allowed us to eat breakfast and lunch in the room and save a decent amount of money (hence the shot of ali in the grocery store).
We were able to ski most of the mountain (see the trail map for details) with the exception of two peaks which are … Read More »

Aimee
I first met her when I was a freshman in high school; we both had geometry together. She was a couple of years older than me, and I figured I didn’t stand a chance. I was the model for self-esteem back then, not that much has changed over the years.
Her name was Aimee, she was an Annabel, and a girl I thought was cute. However, it never went any further than that; at least not for three and a half more years.
Come to think of it, I’m not even sure how it happened — I think it was at a party at Gabe’s house.
Gabe and I go way back; we met in the third grade. It was our first year at Sacred Heart, and neither of us really knew anyone. Somehow we realized that we … Read More »
Nerd
I stumbled across this nerd quiz, and decided to take it. I had no idea that I was such a nerd. I was expecting something in the 50-70% range, but nothing like this …
Pining
My great aunt Molly died a couple of weeks ago, and ever since I found out I’ve had a strong desire to go home. I would have gone down when it happened only there wasn’t a service (at her request). The thing that is most holding me back is that it is hard to work from there, and I don’t want to use vacation time for the trip (I know, how selfish of me). I guess the real issue is that Ali and I already have a vacation planned for the end of January to go to Sunday River in Maine, and I didn’t think it would go over too well if I tried to take another week near an already planned vacation.
I am looking forward to the Sunday River trip; the skiing has been pretty weak … Read More »
