gnarles barkley.

i love this duo. cee-lo from goodie mob and danger mouse collaborated to make some awesome tunes. it's been on constant rotation throughout the day.

speaking of music, PLEASE SEND ME THINGS I SHOULD BE LISTENING TO. i think my lack of new music has had a role to play in this mild depression. send me the goods, people. i'll love you forever (not that anyone who reads this isn't already in that category). as for major roles in shayla sadness, that would be the boy and the joblessness.

for those of us looking for jobs, maybe we should consider drafting that perfect cover letter. you know, the letter that communicates everything we REALLY want to say...

Reigning champion of the no post

A furious month has whipped by leaving no time for posts. Updating everyone on an entire month is a bit daunting, but here’s my attempt. Forgive the choppiness.

Snowboarding
I am consumed by this sport. I find myself waking up earlier than I would ever imagine to see what snow conditions are like at mountains I’ve visited. Then I spend my morning daydreaming about being near one.

Moving to Tahoe
I have decided to move to Tahoe so I can be near a mountain. See previous comment. I need to be a snow bum for a while. I need this. I’m upset it took me this long to get here.

Beer? Or Food?
During my unemployment, I have placed a higher priority on the former. Note to self…when drinking barley wine, consider eating something beforehand.

Boy
Met boy, liked boy, roommates didn’t like boy and me together, severe tensions, drunken nights, boy hurt me after we decided to chill because of tensions. Boy has since made me feel sad/lonely/insecure because boy decides to be a prick…

Bend, Oregon
Nine day snowboarding vacation. The perfect interruption to roommate and boy tensions. Amazing. Soothing. Could not have done a thing better at any time in any place. I improved exponentially (thanks to an amazing teacher…my dearest Jessica) although I still have a ways to go before I’m shreddin’ the gnar gnar pow. (I had that reaction too when I first heard it.) For those interested, the Deschutes Brewery rocks it with a killer Porter, Black Butte. Dark, rich and yummy.

Basketball
I don’t know if it’s the unemployment or the newfound love for my alma mater, but I’ve been into March Madness like crazy.
