So the groundhog sees his shadow, and immediately we get dumped on!
These photos are actually from my second time sledding, with Loren, Elizabeth, and Jess, earlier this afternoon. Yesterday I went out to the same hill with Brad, Nick, Bill, Bryan, Alex, and Derek. Admittedly, I felt a little out of place, being the only girl as well as the only freshman, but there's other far more complicated reasoning behind that feeling too that I don't really care to elaborate on. It's just another detail of the whole run-with-three-crowds-claim-none scenario, plus I think too much. They're nice guys though, and I had fun. In fact, this Tuesday night Brad and Alex and probably Bryan and I are going to watch Ikiru together, so that should be interesting.
On my way down the hill at one point while I was sledding I hit a rough bump, so I anticipate a nasty bruise to blossom above my ass and change all kinds of colors over the next week. I also rolled over onto some packed down snow at one point so I'm a little achy around my shoulders. On top of all that, my entire body hurts from working out on the elliptical yesterday, dancing a bit last night, and stomping around in snow for a total of four hours within two days. So I'm pretty banged up and sore in general. Call me a masochist, but it's satisfying - winter weather and pain are two things that assure me I'm alive. My body's reactions and recovery are comforting to witness.
Ever the ass of the group.
