snow soon

despite disliking the cold, i’m really looking forward to the start of ski season. lots more snow camping, and lots more exploring new snow places. and pancakes. and to be honest, what’s the good of these in-between seasons anyway. once we actually get to winter, it’ll probably be a completely different matter, as skiing is probably the only enjoyable thing to be doing in the cold. having to break icy puddles in order to use holds when climbing is “not cool”.

(oh, and i’m actually working on getting some sort of structure thing happening, so i can have archives, and comments… and organisation, just like all the cool kids do. when this will actually happen is anyone’s guess.)

coolest thing ever (category: edible)

bah! not having new shiny things to post pictures of makes this all much less exciting. if i could find a picture of the new peppermint cream drumstick then i’d post that, as it’s the latest coolest thing ever (category: edible). however, there doesn’t seem to be much in the way of pictures of icecreams on the internet. shame on you google image search.

meanwhile, i went out for a wander through the CBD after lunch, and saw trainee policemen practising their traffic controlling skills. which involved standing in the middle of an intersection and waving their arms and blowing whistlees a lot, while the traffic happily ignored them and just paid attention to the traffic lights, which were working just fine.
