Schwiggity-schwell, today only experienced some minor bumps in the road. The bus ride home from the mountain was unbeLIEVably annoying. It's like people lose IQ points when the go on vacation. Don't you bastard skiers know that skis go on the OUTSIDE of the bus?! Assholes. Also we hit traffic in the most random place, all of which made me miss the BBQ a good buddy of mine was throwing for the baskeball game. Not that I care two shits about basketball, but he's a good man and I was pissed I couldn't contribute.
On galactically lighter notes, I had yet another spiritual journey through the snow today. I mean, we're talkin knee-deep powder across the board, and so many freakin face-shots all day that I had to stop every 20 min or so just to figure out where the hell I was. Hell, there were points during the day where visibility was so low I started getting vertigo from lack of a reference point. Un-fucking-believable. It's days like today that redeem my entire return to this not-so-God-forsaken town. Well, that and the two stupidly unappreciated two years I spent with a wonderful girl here, but that's a horse of a different color. Anyway, if you ever get the chance to shred while listening to Iron and Wine, I highly recommend you do so. It is so choice.
Also, I got drunk tonight at my fav techno/house bar. Below are some lyrics that made me step back a bit today on the mountain (all fantastic artists = listen to them!):
No more fighting.
This is only a waste of our time
'cause soon we'll be leaving.
Will this strength still be mine?
I'll look out for you 'til I die, 'til I rot.
I'll remember you 'til I die, until I rot.
You're what keeps me believing the world's not gone dead,
Strength in my bones put the words in my head.
When they pour out to paper, it's all for you.
'Cause that's what you do.
-I Want To Know Your Plans by Say Anything
Found your mittens behind a box of pictures
You would wear them before I brewed the tea
That's one memory I can easily conjure
Weary memory I can always see
-Weary Memory by iron & Wine
Please show me how to live.
Please show me how to have a day.
I don't want to wake up now-ah.
Why do I have to wake up anyway.
