I am out of here!

Post by Alyeska »

So long, today is opening day on the ski mountain and its time for me to hit the slopes.

Yep, believe it or not some of us have a real life. I have had to wait 7 miserable snowless months for winter to return, and here it is.

Well, his name DOES translate into "Huggy Bear" which is why it's hilarious to watch him pound on GMs and Ground Gundams.

It is...unfortunatly for some games...he just sucks...but it's always a hoot to win with it.

Now if Wong changes his avatar...that would be weird...to used to seeing Zen master Yoda for too long.

You just wouldn't be yourself any more, and my quote in Aerius' sig would make no sense.

However, if you made it a rabid sith yoda, by darkening the robe and making the eyes reddish, then it would be much better.

There's a lot of snow where I ive right now, but I'm sure come Christmas, there won't be any. Too late for that though. We're talking about avatars now.

Philly Area was supposed to get four inches of snow. We got light rain.

Hot damn that was fun. 24 inches on the top of the mountain and its all relatively fresh and soft snow. The only problem is that there is no snow half way down the mountain. You gotta ride up and down the lift just to get to the snow or leave the mountain. Ah well, any skiing is better then none.

You better remember us, poor snow-less folks, when you're going down the mountain! Have a great time! 8)

Ah! It has already snowed in Serra da Estrela.

The bad thing is, it has already melted.

And it's never enough to ski :(

We've only had a bit of wet snow here in MD so far, but I'm going up to MA for the weekend, where they've got quite a few inches on the ground. I love snow. It's so pretty and there are so many fun things you can do in it *raises one eyebrow at Iggy*...aren't there? *innocent smile*
