Ah… mid July. While the population at large is busy sunning themselves on a beach, (or in the case of Boulder, Colorado) next to a creek, I find myself sitting in a super-refrigerated office trying to assemble nearly 400 ski related products and reviews into a coherent buyer’s guide for FREESKIER Magazine. While I toil with ski test intro spreads (and updating this blog), Harvey and Shay do stupid stuff like jogging in 90 degree heat.
Dear Freeskier Magazine, It’s been fun. Real Fun. Volume 11 is almost done. Granted now that I’m claiming this the server will inevitably catch on fire and we’ll loose the last issue before it goes out the door this afternoon.
Despite the fact that I shared an office with a flaming Canadian who’s more interested in 1337 translators and vintage synthesizers than providing me pages to design (jay kaaay!), and the reality that I’ve had to work ungodly hours, often times sleeping on a hard couch from target in a fridged confrence room (ehrm.. “The Target Lounge”), I’ve enjoyed my time here and I’d go so far as to say I’m looking forward to doing it again next season.
How noble is Shay Williams? So noble that apparently he feels compelled to work on a Sunday. Maybe noble isn’t the right word but I don’t care. Just like I don’t care about a bunch of other stuff that I can’t think of off the top of my head. I also don’t want to be seen as a slacker, so here is proof that I also work on Sundays. (When I’m not updating my blog obviously.)
