30 year plan

Ben's dad got us an interview to re-make his company's Web site. AudioDig hasn't yet had a lot of clients, so we were pretty excited and nervous, but I think it actually went well. So with any luck we'll have an actual paying job soon, and then I won't sound like a liar when I tell people that I have my own Web design company.

Snowmoboard

Thanksgiving report:

1. Ate dinner with Dad's in-laws. It's kind of weird to spend time with those people, not because they're weird, but just because I barely know them and we still act like we're family. The nice thing about your own family is that they love you despite the fact that they know you so well.
2. Bunked up at Snowbird with the Jackman's and the Dubois's. I have multiple surrogate families now. That's kind of neat. And these ones even know how big of a jerk I am, and they still like me.
3. The snow this weekend was so good. Based on the amount of snow that I had to dig my car out from under (literally: I used a shovel), I'd say we got about 3 feet over the weekend. Saturday while we were skiing it was snowing so much that we'd do a run and then by the time we got back to the top the same run had fresh powder again. I think that's what heaven's going to be like.

A Hope for Normal Conditions

We went to lunch early today, and its a good thing that we did, because it started melteding pretty hard as soon as we got back. I think its worked its way into frozening. I hope it at leasts normals in the mountains, but it would be fun if we got some normal here, too.
Brighton opens tomorrow. Are they the first? Well, I'm excited. I'm torn about what to do with my money this season, though. I really liked the Brighton night pass that I had last year; that worked out pretty well. It costs $250. I think the rumor about Sundance puts a mid-week pass at $130 or something like that, which is much more in my price range, but then there's no night skiing and probably no Ben, which for sure would slow down my improvement rate. A real pass (even for students) to Brighton is about $500. I need to sell a Web site or something.

Ok, check out how good yesterday really was:
We got our tests back in Art History, and I was completely expecting to fail it because I didn't know all of these dates and crazy italian artist names and such, but I actually got an A. How, you ask? Well, apparently the teacher liked the essay section of my test so much that it just completely overshadowed the crappy short facts section. I made some claims on the essay that kind of looked at things in a different light than how he presented it in class, but I guess he loved it. So class was good, and maybe I won't fail after all. So I get out of class and Ben and Kim are like, You wanna go to Incubus? and I'm all like, I'm poor, and they're all like ITS FREE! and I'm all like, sweet. Ben and Kim practically own 105.7. They won Green Day tickets, and Incubus tickets, and... well, probably some other stuff, too. So Incubus was pretty sweet (but we missed Sparta) and they did the coolest drum solo ever known to man, SO cool, in fact, that it took 3 members of the band mounting up on percussion instruments, 'cause just one drummer couldn't contain all of the cool that they needed.

So I got a new mom now. And 4 new sisters. Are you allowed to think that your sisters are hot? You know what the sweetest part about weddings is? The line. I know, its really silly, and its stupid that people do it, but its cool when you're just a guy in the line and not the person that people come to see, because you can tell all kinds of crazy stories about who you are and what you do. I was kind of limited this time because people knew that I was the groom's son (Ben's wedding had crazier stories), but I did change names and ages and professions a few times.

I got an e-mail from Kim today, and I'm really worried about her. She appears to have some strange insecurities. Here's what she said:

Hi Be, how's it going? So what's the deal with your website saying I'm in control of Ben? And why did you put that list of dates on there? I'm embarrassed now. What if other girls see your site and hate me for judging dates that way? I'm not like other girls, you know. And what's up with 'Hi are you?' You're weird.

Kim! What are you talking about? No one will hate you! You have absolutely no reason to be embarrassed. Right, world wide web? Who's with me?

My best friend replaced me with a woman last week. That means that he got married. It's all right, though, because his wife is way cool (for a girl), and she says that she'll still let us be friends, even though she's in control now. I added some menu things on the side there. The Andy Richter and Trade Wars pages are both in the media section now. The sections aren't all full, so click around often to see if I put up anything that's not retarded. Nevermind, don't waste your time.
