Went back home to the states for 3 weeks around the holidays. Flew into DC, rented a car, drove to OH, then to MI, then to another part of MI, then to another part of MI, then back to OH, then back to DC and flew back to Warsaw.
Had a fun little shindig at Ed's place and got to see all the people I've been missing. Thanks to everyone who showed up! Even got to do a little light painting because Ed's the shit and made me a couple neon green light wands.
Went and saw my (current) favorite band, Chimaira, at the House of Blues in Cleveland. It was awesome except for the 2 assholes that ruined my favorite song by getting into a fight right behind us. All of a sudden a group of people slammed into us and pushed us 20 feet. The one dude shouted "YOU ran into ME, motherf*cker!". They were actually fighting over who ran into who in the middle of a sold out concert.
Rented a cabin in Zakopane with 14 people from the embassy and had an amazing time. It's a ski town in the Tatry Mountains on the Slovakian border. Spent an entire day snowboarding for the first time since I moved from MI. There were 4 of us guys, and I was the only one who had ever tried it before. We met a cool Polish chick who went to high school in PA who gave us some lessons that really helped out a lot. I'm getting much better and can make it down the hill and stop at the bottom without falling now. You probably won't peep me in the X-Games any time soon, but I'm dying to go again. I think we'll take my dad there next winter.
Spent the last 3 days on the couch, sick as hell. Probably spend all day tomorrow there, too. But hopefully I'll be better by friday. This weekend is the last chance to see the Warsaw hockey team play, and I really want to go so I better be ok by then.

i still read it, but i didnt want to guilt you into blogging.
they have a unicycle track at the ski lodge?
let me know if you need some fireworks for a more impressive trek down the hill next time you go.
actually i had some cool ideas for some light painting pics. i wanted to go back to the mountain and have one of the guys who is a really good snowboarder and have him hold the green lightwands in his hands while he goes down the mountain. plus barbie thought the light painting was so fun that she bought me some more tools in town. a little hand held fan with different colored leds on it, and 2 foot long torch thingys.
I read it. In fact I cry myself to sleep when I don't have any updates from Nathan and Kim. You should really update this more. I'm fragile like that and you're hurting me.
you could tape the wands to his ski poles... or just the neon for that matter
