Wint*r W*nderland

It's been a while since I've posted - longer than I'd thought it had been, actually. I've been pleasantly distracted by ongoings in the offline world. It's funny how things happen sometimes, but very shortly after the Impersonals post, I met a great gal who loves to x-country ski. Now, either of those two items alone would be reason to have less time for posting: both together, well, you know the results.

It's really looking like the picture postcard winter one imagines when thinking of Montreal in winter, and there has been good, and lately, great skiing to be found on our beloved Mont Royal. Having the park in the middle of downtown is one of the pleasures of living in Montreal and having someone to ski it with is just great. Yesterday felt like a one-day holiday, for example: went to Eggspectations for breakfast, then x-country skiing in fresh, powdery snow, then to the Atwater market to pick up great cheese, baguette, and wine for dinner followed by a mindless but fun movie (Pirates of the Caribbean II). A great day of R&R with R.
