    Where in Colorado are you? I am sure we'll get there -- it will be much closer than when we lived in NC! Have only been to one little corner of CO so far (Durango area), but what I saw was gorgeous!

    We are in the Denver area but spend most every weekend in the mountains hiking, camping, backpacking, etc. It is a gorgous place to live.

    Dear co-worker,

    please stop putting your husband down whenever you talk about him. It's not funny, it's not a female bonding thing, at least it certainly doesn't work for me, it makes him sound like an helpless idiot and it makes you sound mean. You chose to share your life with this man, at least grant him a little respect.

    Dear self,

    yes, when you walk in the door at work wearing XC skiing gear, everybody does think you've been skiing already. Even if it's nine in the morning in downtown Oslo, and even though they do know you regularly change to the work clothes you keep downstairs, and regularly ski after work. Really, there is no way of getting through that door without somebody asking if you've skied to work. Just suck it up and smile.
    Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin

    +1 on both. I've been there, especially with #1. I find it offensive to hear women continually complain about "all men." That's a stereotype no better than "all women..."
