Well that's what *Sam* was saying when we went skiing this weekend. Oh come on Honey, dont look at the signs, I know you can Ski this! Ooooh but signs are there for a reason Sam. Do you notice Sam that the skull and cross bone advisory is posted along with the "expert skier only" flourescent orange sign before we are about to hit the slope? Nope.. cant read says Sam. And so alas my intermediate skiing skills were tested as my advanced skiing boyfriend flew down the hill. I, on the other hand, gracefully as can be (under controlled chaos) made it down the hill.. oh ... 30 minutes later. Nonetheless I did it! Double Diamond.. no biggie.. you no scare me!
2 Gin and Tonics later at the bar I spoke of my run down the slope and also made reference back in '04 when I was in the Olympics doing those runs with my eyes closed. Oh yes.. people in the gondola stared at me. Not staring because they are in the presence of an olympic athelete, staring because I was probably buzzed and making a fool of myself.
We had a fabulous weekend staying at the Resort at Squaw. Drinking at the outside bar near the snow and fire pits. Listening to live music and just enjoying the pure beauty of the valley. We laughed a lot, skiied a lot and had the best time.
Hope you had a great Easter.

Sounds like fun!!
That totally makes me think of a line from a Laurie Notaro book. She says when she used to drink she thought she was a gymnast and had a Motown like singing voice as evidenced by her trying to scale a fence and going to a karaoke bar. I guess you were just an Olympiad. You should have mentioned you were a waterski entertainer at Marine World!
