Snowboarding angst. Yep.
I was in the small park today working on my grabs, and trying to nosepress the box. I was lapping the park for about 3 hours before a snowboard instructor waved me down, introduced himself as a park coach and then handed me his card. I’m like, “Thanks!” I’m sure he meant well, and was being friendly, but I felt sooo bummed out after that… like I’m THAT...

You're a hot 25
What is up with all the ladies on here in their early mid-twenties complaining about being spinsters?!
Me: Why am I single?
Brain: You are weird as fuck
Body: And fat
Face: You're pretty ugly too
Food: It's okay, I'm here for you.

I have determined the reason I haven’t been on a date in a while is because I don’t smile or make eye contact with anyone when I’m out and about during the day.

I’ve been frustrated with myself lately because I feel like I haven’t pushing myself to progress fast enough. Then yesterday, my shred bro fell off a battleship rail backwards, landing headfirst. She was wearing a helmet, said she was OK afterwards, but then passed out at work this afternoon. Apparently she has a concussion, and won’t be riding again for about 4-5 weeks. That...

Forever Alone? Maybe.
I often complain about being single, but I haven’t actually made any effort to change my situation. It gets lonely, but then I think back on the last guy I dated briefly (< 3 months). I ask myself, “Do I really want to go though that again?” I know I can’t assume every guy I date will be like him, but what if they turn out to be his doppelganger?
Then I also reflect...

Now That I'm A Crusty Old Hag
My health insurance rate is being raised this month because I’m turning 30. The funny thing is, I’m probably more in shape now than I’ve ever been in my entire life (snowboarding and yoga 5 days a week will do that to ya).

This Is Probably Why I'm Single
I have a few body lotions I usually reserve for special occasions like date nights. This morning, I was like, “Fuck it. I haven’t been on a date in half a year. No sense in letting it sit here.” It works out because perfumed body lotion is just what I need when I’m wearing my snowboarding base layers for the 3rd day in a row.
Before you get grossed out, all my base layers...

Morning shred on New Year's Day
Ticket Scanner DudeBro: Why do you always ride alone?
I did a little bit of riding this morning. I usually don’t go on the weekends because of the crowds, but I was expecting everyone to be too hung over to get on the mountain for first chair. (‘Cos, you know, everyone was out raging last night, except me.) I was correct, and left around 11am when the weekend crowd started showing...

NYE Pity Party
I’m spending NYE alone in my apartment…watching Bridget Jone’s Diary and eating St. Yves mini veggie corn dogs.
