"I can't go today" whine thread...

[Fluffy Kitty]

My wife's not feeling well today. Gotta stay home to do some errands for her.

=/

I'm getting a leisurely start - since my knee will only support 5 or *maybe* 7 runs, and there's no new snow overnight, I might as well chill and go mid-day.

 

[Albertan ski girl]

I can't go today because we're going tomorrow...

 

[Tvan]

I can't go today because it's snowing too hard to drive.

 

[jellyflake]

Office instead of mountain today. And tomorrow.

 

[Jilly]

I just quit today. It's storming and its windy cold riding the lifts. Hot soup time!

 

[ski diva]

I can't go today because it's between Christmas and New Year's and my pass it blacked out and I'm too cheap to go somewhere else and pay holiday rates.

@ski diva, I'm with you on that one. However, I might make the exception tomorrow...supposed to get 14-18in at the River tonight, and I'm not so sure my floor can take that much drooling if I just sit there and watch the snow.

Tomorrow = doctor's appointment. I schedule all the stuff I don't do when I'm skiing for this week.

Shows how smart I am.

Murphy's law...it always snows when you plan something else

I'm not going because my mountain is too crowded... ski world problems my hubs says.

The lines were loooooong today, but that's because I didn't get an early start, and Breck is what, the most tourist-infested ski resort in the country? My 10:30am arrival coincided with everyone else's. The lines got much shorter during lunch. I munched on juicy snap peas, apple slices, and creamy cambozola with crackers in the lift line.

Erm, sorry, that doesn't really fit with the theme ...

I *will* pay for Loveland tomorrow to ski with a friend. Not a lot of runs, but should have far fewer yahoos skiing right up on my grille with insufficient control. I've turned into the little old lady "Get off my lawn!" of skiers.

I can't go today because small children are currently devouring my soul

How's Mowgli's potty training coming along?

 

[heather matthews]

....because it's summer.

 

[Kimmyt]

It's slowly progressing. Very slowly.

 

[newboots]

Because I have to buy groceries and do laundry some time.

Nights. Duh.

Work is harder to time shift ... at least for me. I do have a friend who successfully juggles an IT consulting business so that he can ski regularly mid-week.

 

[veronicarella]

I can't go skiing today because I'm cross-country skiing today

 

[lisamamot]

I didn't go today because I had to pack; flying to FL for a soccer tourney with my daughter....sigh. Why can't there be an indoor tournament in, say, Utah?!
