You know, I can't tell you how many acquaintances I have who get me on the phone and want to "plan" out a trip to go skiing. I used to play along and even would get annoyed when they wouldn't show up, even though I was going to be there anyway.

Then I realized something...I'M GOING TO BE THERE ANYWAY! Why am I making "plans"? So now, I stop my "friends" with their "plans" and just tell them to call me on the cell phone when they arrive at Hunter and I'll meet them. Much easier! The moral...make your own plans and plan to go alone if that's smart and safe.

And I put "friends" in that paragraph in parentheses because my best friends are out skiing anyway too.
