For the past three weeks I have been in self-imposed seclusion prepping for the GRE. My days and nights are filled with vocab flashcards and math drills. I dream in data. My family's become accustomed to me answering the phone with, "Help me with the Quadratic equation" or "Obliquy is to opprobrium as vituperitive is to polemic?" (It's not). Suffice to say, it's pretty unbearable.
So imagine my surprise when I opened my inbox today to see a note from an old friend inviting me to Aspen with him over the break. Conveniently, it falls just a few days after I'm scheduled to do battle with the GRE... and I cannot think of a better way to celebrate. Last year, we took this incredible mogul course and I've been reminiscing ever since. (See photos above - unfortunately I'm one of those people who always forgets to snap pics while on the snow - I'm too busy having fun!) We had the perfect sunny weather and it was early enough in the season that the mountains were ours for the taking.
Though my office has been adding holiday tracks to our playlist for weeks now, to me, it doesn't feel like holiday season until I'm on the lift. Christmas can't come soon enough!
Happy Holidays, all!
