So, skiing. Friday morning our plans changed – James, whom works at Loopt, was able to get their corporate cabin for the weekend, which is up somewhere just north of Tahoe City. So we cancelled the motel in South Lake Tahoe (pfft, $160 cancellation fee… arses) and planned to hit Alpine Meadows instead. The name… Read more

21st of March, 2007[continued from previous entry] So I was a bit seedy still in the morning. I’d set my phone alarm to 8:30am, so that I’d have time to grab breakfast (7am-9am) and shower before checkout (10am). However, at about 8:50am I suddenly realised I hadn’t set my phone’s clock forward, so it was… Read more
