I’d like to apologize to those of you awaiting the Greatest Snow on Earth.  You see, the Universe is in the process of showing me who’s in charge and I guess the rest of the world just has to wait until I’ve learned my lesson.  Since June (and perhaps the August before that) my liver has ceased to function properly and my hamstring and patella have been maimed in such a way as to render me just slightly below functional.  This would have stopped most smart people, sensitive enough to take a hint—but not me.  The second I learned I could ski (marginally) without injury--  it simply stopped snowing.  I apologize for any collateral damage.  It may take me and the Universe a while to come to an amicable agreement.

I wish you would. They said 70% chance of 7-13 inches in the mountains. It was a sad show. Running? together? I hope to be wogging by April. But unlike you, have even given up going to the gym after 'the accident'. (I just can't be trusted not to break any new stuff or fall on my knee). So I'm taking a break until spring, and plan on exercising only my brain. I'd like to get the GRE passed this year. Let's hope my brain isn't as far gone as my body.
