Yippppeeee!
I found my girlfriend again!
*wanders in with devil sticks in hand, and looks around for breakable stuff*
I wish my body would sort itself out...
In France I would be really tired for the first couple of hours on a morning, then I would wake up for the 7 or so hours I was on the river, then would go really REALLY tired when I got back, then would wake up and get energy again about 9pm, and start to tire at about 3am, when I usually went to bed.
Now I'm back in the States, I have a 7hr time difference.
So its 11.45am here, which makes it 6.45pm there, which is probably the reason I'm suddenly knackered!
Which is probably the reason I'm probably not making a lot of sense.

You still in Denver, pounce?
I should've come up to see you in the winter when it was snowing- I could've gone snowboarding aswell then.
Well, I'm here till at least October, and then have to take a trip to the UK (bloomin' 90 day tourist visas!), and then will be back over 'till christmas.
I'm sure we'll be able to see each other again!

Christmas in Newcastle with the parents is a necessity.
Also, its the only time I get to see my brother.

Do they have snow in the summer still?
Or do we have to wait 'till the winter?
I'm used to the uk, where we're lucky to get snow even in the winter! (although Scotland's not too bad).

yup. still in denver. but ski/boarding season is over. still get a little snow here and there (it snowed in june
) but not enough.
go figure, here i was in the snowboarding capital of the world (ok slight exaggeration i know) and i didn't go even once. eh, gives me a reason to come back and visit next winter.
but once i'm in vegas, you can come and visit and go gambling or something like that. and it would be even cheaper to fly there than to denver! (stupid southwest doesn't fly here )

oh ya, definately. but i'd have to recommend Blue Man Group too if you want to go see a show. WAY worth the money, and less expensive than cirque.

Blue Man Group is awesome. I saw them in Houston.
I know cirque is expensive, but the reviews on the shows I have in mind... O and I think the other is Zumanity .... are impressive.
We'll play it all by ear.

Christmas is the MOST romantic time in New York. The big tree, the snow, the hustle and bustle of all of the shopping and beautiful window scenes... and it being just cold enough to tickle each other with cold eskimo kisses.... or just snuggle on a couch in an overly heated apartment and drink hot cocoa.

Vegas it is then!
(God, so much for us saving the money!)
Yeah, it would be good, when we can afford it. Just DON'T let me gamble on ANYTHING- Spitfire, you know how addicted I can get to stuff. (And not at all to a certain computer game in France!)

I mean..not RIGHT now, of course, but once things get colder, and there is snow on the ground in those places with mountains and such??? PuLEASE?

Of course we can go boarding!
I might see if I can sell my board when I'm at home, and just get a new one out here. Mine's a little bit short for me. It spins well, but I'm not too keen on it otherwise
If I get properly back into my boarding, am I allowed 'clicker' bindings? Pleeeeaaaase?

Since I've got no vacation days left, though, it'll have to be weekend trips.
