<\/a><\/p>\nNot only is blog the worst, and most ridiculous word in the English language (yep, it’s acceptable in Scrabble), but I am obsessed. Like, more obsessed than I am with online scrabble<\/a> (and as I’ve already made one reference in this post, you can see that’s a lot.) Friday I went up to Mt. Hood with no intention of journalising in any way. I didn’t even bring my camera. I was going to just ride for fun, because it’s the holidays, and I don’t feel like anyone who is paying cares about homey shred sessions.<\/p>\n As it turned out, Friday was pretty much the best conditions I’ve ever ridden at Meadows. We rode all day with sweet pro shred Darrell Mathes<\/a>, and there were even a few runs with one of the morons from Jackass. Most importantly, it was deep as hell and I rode for an unprecedented four hours. The whole time all I could think was, man this would be one hell of a blog, and I could probably even get paid for it. So now I know, never count out blogging as a possibility. As sad as it may me, I’ve gotten to the point where if I can’t blog it, I don’t even want to do it. Pathetic really.<\/p>\n Later that night Jen<\/a> had a Pot Luck to which most people brought no pots of food (lots of crackers and beer.) I almost forgot, remembered 20 minutes before I was supposed to be there, whipped up some pasta primavera (thanks 30 minute meals!) and still managed to be one of the first ones there. My favorite Portland blogger George<\/a> and I swapped college stories and talked about the internet, and thank god he was there shooting photos so my skate session in a dress will get blogged.<\/a><\/p>\n I awoke today to find it was still snowing in Portland and my flight to Vermont was cancelled. I am rebooked on one tomorrow, but not feeling super confident that will take off either. I’ll be sure to blog about it either way!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Archives Not only is blog the worst, and most ridiculous word in the English language (yep, it’s acceptable in Scrabble), but I am obsessed.
