Last night, I felt the darkness slowly seeping into my pores while I was skiing up Whiteface Toll Road. My skis were following the footsteps of a child. I'd like to blame the night sky for making me think such creepy thoughts about why a kid would be running down the mountain by themselves in the dark.
I don't think my mind would have gone there if it was a sunny sky. I probably would have noticed the footprints of an entire family and maybe some sled marks, but alas it was dark.
The dark days are slowly becoming lighter and lighter and I will not let the winter darkness beat me this year. What do you do in the winter to scare away the darkness?

A lot of people drink or smoke pot, but I just eat everything in sight. I don't recommend any of the above.
i recommend smoking pot or, ideally, vaporizing, much healthier and it's a great jump start in the morning before i wake the kids...
save the alcohol for the evening and use in moderation. (single malt scotch whiskey will do)
i heard that some people will drink PBR on the ski out!!!
cant imagine that tho...
I usually go insane and talk to lego people but other than that, it's nice having a fireplace and plenty of hot chocolate. Oh and bake all sorts of stuff I shouldn't be eating :)
all of the anonymous comments out there, you're not fooling me, i know who you are! :) yes, scotch makes me nice and warm, sometimes incredibly drunk. i've enjoyed having a bota box of wine on the counter for the month of january. i guess it's time to buy a new one...
i am coming back, fear the darkness no more.. dawn patrol wf, get it done(tough guy bc hard dude talk)
sit inside, drink, be content, miserable, humble, resigned, (depressed dude talk..)
somewhere in between..
i am coming back though, i hope you and drew have kept the raving to a minimum in the camper...:)
I go south.
