A Gin for computer deal 6:13AM

Whoah!! Sorry people this has been a long time coming. Still I've sorted out a Gin for computer time deal with Bill so there will be more entries forthcoming soon.


Okay I'll be breif now cos it 10pm and i've got to be up at 6:30am. I was out last night and tonight drinking. Last night i was also up pretty late chatting to farmgirl for her belated birthday call. It was cool to catch up farmgirl :) - next time maybe i'll be less pissed. Anyway had a good yarn to room-mate and Sarah (chick i met on the way over here) after that and managed about 5 hours sleep.


Arrgh better go.


Heres a super quick summary to keep you going: I'm now a lift operator at Winter Park resort in Colorado, USA. Currently (and hopefully permanently) i operate a high speed quad chair detachable, its kicks arse. Its been well below zero most days. There is 6 foot of snow and i have a new pair of snowboard boots. I ride a board i've borrowed for a bit to work each day. Often through fresh powder. I get three days off a week to go riding so hopefully i'll get heaps better. I spend my lunch hours riding. There is another dude here called Ashley whom i met at the airport. Every body calls Ash. Or Side show bob, due to his serious dreads.
