mile high life




so this happened last week. i’m still not quite sure what happened (i was knocked out for a couple seconds), but i’ve been told a boarder clipped me from behind, i wiped out, and tumbled, hard, down the mountain. i left the medical center, on crutches, just as the flurries turned into a decent snow fall, and night skiing had just begun. (all my years on the slopes and i’ve yet to catch a run at night.. planet bullshit). i compensated for my loss by hobbling to the village, still on crutches (and drunk at the time of this picture), in the middle of a snow storm (with gusts of wind that seriously almost knocked me over several times) and balanced out my ratio of hot rum & ciders to pints of avalanche amber.. like a champ.  on the bright side, i followed up with a new doctor yesterday.. no torn ligaments, and a full recovery in two to six weeks (yay!). i’ll be back in no time.
