...so my communication with the outside world, which consists of people outside of Kevin and David, came to a screeching halt. I gave up my cell phone and my home phone is through the internet, so therefore I haven't spoken to anyone since last Tuesday, except those persistent assholes who bothered me by calling Kevin's cell.
In the mean time it finally started to snow last week for the first time since Christmas week, but it was short lived and a new high pressure zone has moved back in. We got some fresh tracks on Fri-Sat-Sunday but it was all skied out by today. We still need that big storm where we are stuck in our apartment and t
he town shuts down for a day or two. Then there will be an adequate base of snow to bring me skiing pleasure. It has been a very dry winter here in Tahoe and hopefully this trend will change in the coming weeks because I didn't move up to ski groomed trails. Also the less skiing I do the more I miss my friends back in AZ and it makes my move unjustified. Even though I have improved my skiing skills dramatically and have trimmed some fat in the last month, I expected more out of SLT. But then again there is summer.I hear that the summers here in Tahoe are killer sweet and this will make up for the dry winter. We will have Kevin's boat up here by late April and can enjoy the great outdoors through different mediums then downhill skiing. Between boating, biking, hiking, climbing, and drinking on the beach I will have to some how find time to work. Which brings me to my next thought...
...my new job working for Leon. I'm working at the rental shop as planned but had to find a second job due to only working 10 hours a week at there. So I responded to a bunch of random CL ads and landed a job parting out snowmobiles on eBay for this guy who runs a snowmobile shop. Also while I'm there I answer phones for Leon's girlfriend's vacation rental properties from 2-8pm everyday. It has been a good job so far and he pays me well. Also I'm learning some little things about mechanics that will be useful down the road.
So my schedule has been the following for the past few weeks;
- 8-9am - Wake up and stay under covers watching stolen cable (ESPN)
- 9-10am - Breakfast (3 strips of man fruit and 3 eggs) and getting ready for the mountain
- 10-10:30am - Getting out the door (for those who know me you understand this 30min daily routine of mine)
- 10:30-1pm - Ski my face off
- 1-2pm - Shower and go to work while and eat on the way (usually I "Eat Fresh")
- 2-8pm - Work (tearing apart sleds and eBaying)
- 8-8:30pm - Shoot the shit and grub at Leon's house
- 8:30-10:30pm - Chill wit da rommies and get Lost with Kevin
- 10:30-11ish - Sportscenter
