A few days ago Alison brought home a copy of Ski & Snowboard Canada magazine’s resort guide. That magazine and this unbearable 40 degree weather were all it took to get me longing for winter.

Think of how lame summer is.

Instead of wearing thick, knee high snowboard socks I’m wearing thin ankle socks so I don’t look silly when I wear shorts. Instead of avoiding trees while on a snowboard I’m desperately trying to find trees so I can hide in their shade. Instead of using massive amounts of energy to have a ski lift pull me to the top of a mountain I’m using massive amounts of energy to keep my apartment cool enough to sleep at night.

Lame!

Since I don’t have the money to fly to New Zealand, Australia, Chile or Argentina I’ll just have to pray for an early snowfall in this part of the world. I’ll count down the days until the Toronto Ski & Snowboard show (74), curl up on the couch in my cool, air conditioned apartment, close the blinds and pretend that every street sweeper or garbage truck that drives by outside is a groomer grooming the runs outside my window.
