On the transition from the Silicon to the Tanana Valley, from urban to rural life, and from working in industry to being a full-time student to working in academia. If you see your name or photo on this blog and want it removed, please let me know and I will do so!

Note to self
If a friend in a group you're skiing with suddenly pulls up beside you with no gloves on, and asks if he can borrow an extra pair, do not ask what happened to the pair he was just wearing.
Because it makes him blush and stammer that certain of his body parts got cold... and he'll never be able to return the favor, because you'll never want to borrow gloves from him again! ;)
This wasn't actually me that this happened to. I was skiing with my friend M, and asked how her ski with a different group had gone. She said, nonchalantly, "fine, except that poor R had to put his wanker in a glove." Except she didn't say wanker. :)
Yeah.... well you have to ask. I mean c'mon, you don't just loose a pair of cloves very easily in minus 20 on a field of white snow. You'd notice u were missing them... instantly. You can be nice and say ok here you go, here's my spare pair, but...?
Yeah ok so sue me! I said cloves not gloves! My hands were cold as i was typing this! I need those gloves too! Now I COULD see how you could loose a pair of cloves especially if they're garlic. I don't care what you all think I still have plenty of cool points!

Love it!
And also love that the Word Verification thingy for leaving you a reply was.... moose!
Haha, well that's pretty smart of him, and I'm glad to know that you carry an extra pair with you.
As for the breakup of the ice, I wonder if it'll be late this year? Seems that the whole country's having a pretty loooong winter.

Gee, and I was thinking he may have had to use them as TP. Real Fairbanksans just grab a handful of coarse snow and scrub till they're numb!
He had to put his willy in a glove?????????

"cloves" could be how a person with a lisp says "clothes."
