My Board Gently Weeps
Songs that Hop, Skip, and Jump
It is almost February and I have yet to strap a single boot onto my beautiful snowbaord. She sits and waits patiently in the corner. Her bag covers her view of the window, so as not to tease her with a view of the deep snow outside. I yearn for our passionate sessions. Wether it is the swish of soft powder, the grinding of an edge into an icy slope, the plop of my board as it lands, or the ratcheting of my bindings, I miss the peace I find in these moments. Truly nothing can take its place.
Last night I dreamed I was at the mountain. I ket trying to make my way over to the lift, but everytime I was met by someone or something impedeing my process. I talked to old friends, I rushed in to wait tables at the Beech Tree, I even went and got my board tuned. I just couldn't seem to make it to the one place I was truly headed.
The good news is, I just got off the phone with Drew, and he is planning on driving up tommorrow to see my show at the skybox. I hadn't told him about MB, but I think he must have sensed a disturbance in the force. I will be glad to see him.
