Well, my quick trip to Canada was a pretty good time. The first night I got hammered at a pro hockey game along with 19,000 Canadian freaks. Then I went directly to an Irish pub with the director of sales and had thirty nightcaps. Woke up at 6am lying across my bed fully clothed and wearing an official Calgary Flames jersey. Then I actually had to go work. Fortunately we got the job wrapped up pretty quick so I headed out of the city to check out Banff. There was a glimmer of a hope that I'd get to make a couple o' turns on some fresh Canadian powder, but there just wasn't time. Nevertheless, I did make it to Banff and I gotta say those mountains are pretty darn amazing. They're just like these huge jagged rocks. Very nice. I didn't get to do much, but it was very nice to be back in the hills if even for just a couple hours.
So I get back to Calgary that night and decide to walk down to Chinatown and have some ethic chow chow. I ended up with some kind of kimchi stuffed cat. The stink that it (along with another 500 Molsons) produced the next morning would have knocked a vulture off a gut wagon. Seriously. I had to leave my hotel room. There can be nothing good in cabbage.
Overall, not a bad trip and Calgary is a really cool city. It would definitely be on the top of my short list of places I could hang my hat.
Hopefully I'm done travelling for a while so I feel like a can focus on my beach body now. Hooray!

Dude... that's pertier than albq. Heck, that's pertier than snyder. But i'm on board with the strategy: poison yerself proper before detox, what so's you can appreciate the difference. The troupe i climb with invited me for some a.m. boozing tomorrow for one of their birthdays, so i'm gunna do that instead of working out. m' body needs a rest anyway. And fortunately i don't have a math test tomorrow after all, so i can stumble into class with few consequences. Then there's Josh's wedding apr. 25th...
And i'll go ahead and put in a vote for making a trip to Banff next season.
Dude. I so wish I could make Josh's wedding.
And it's all about the vitamins and minerals with cabbage. Seriously, i'm gunna trick steph into trying kimchi. LMAO. and they really still drink Molsons that far north do they? That weighs heavily against my otherwise fairly neutral view of Canucks.
