Wife and kids are going away this weekend so I want to get out (so much cheaper when it is only me). I don't want to have to go to Kmart. I hope some place I like is open.

As long as mother nature is cooperative, Mount Snow 
Otherwise to one of my local bars in CT to drown my snow sorrows

Most likely no-where. With the deposit of vacation days I have left, I would rather pick a day next week to head out for the first time. I'm concerned about number of people vs. open terrain. Killing me not to have gotten' out yet, but I'm all about the quality of my days. A nice sunny relaxing Wednesday or Thursday would be optimum. Haven't decided where yet but probably K. Maybe Mt. Snow if open with something on TNF. Hopefully to start in earnest next weekend. And I do believe in the "law of averages". When it comes I will go.
My wife definitely wants me to start skiing because otherwise I'm on-line buying skis and booking vacations..............................which reminds me of this little ditty:
FEELING THE ITCH:
no I havn't been sleeping with any promiscuous women; i'm just reaching the height of my withdrawal from skiing. I'll set the scene:
I'm sitting here in my den at my computer wearing my new boots, pants, and jacket, with my goggles on, and watching ski dvd's. It's reached that point. Skiing has occupied almost all of my thought lately.
Even at night; my dreams of naked women and exotic sexual encounters of different varieties are now replaced by images of waist deep powder, tree skiing, and of course, massive bumps. My wife thinks i'm crazy, and I probably am. I mean wearing ski boots just because? Well I justify it by telling myself that the more I wear them now, the less break-in time will be required once I do go skiing, but really I just miss the feeling of having them on.
I don’t know what I'm gonna do. One of the only things I've found that alleviates my anxiety is to buy skiing-related items off the internet and have them delivered to me here at home. It's like Christmas when I get that package slip, and walk back up the driveway with my box/boxes. Even though I know exactly what is inside, I still tear into the packages and immediately try on/use whatever the item is. The downside is that I'm spending money that could go toward my mortgage...oh who am I kidding? Money that could go toward BEER!
So yeah...how is everyone else holding up? I wonder if the boss will let me wear my boots to work...

Hunter for one run. (Unless we're insanely lucky.). But, skiing under the guns all day on HBK sounds good to me.

Sunday River on sunday. Hopefully the cold stays with us. It would be nice to be able to ski onto the lift for a change.
