WAHOO!!! Adrien Brody won Best Actor for The Pianist…how exciting! Ever since I saw that film in Paris, I’ve been cheering it on. If you look at my desktop wallpaper right now, you’ll see Adrien on there playing the piano–it’s been like that for a couple of months now. Wow. How satisfying to see such a brilliant performance rewarded like so. Yay Adrien! Weekend was pretty ho-hum…but I welcomed it so…as I’ve been away for the last 3 weekends in a row. Friday, Pierre and I went to see Bowling for Columbine—I’ll have to agree with everyone I’ve talked to that it’s good. If you haven’t seen it yet, go.…

this is funny while i had a great time at whistler, it wasn’t the powder heaven that i was expecting it to be. All the snow went up top, creating a crazy snowstorm with winds so strong that it closed most of the peak lifts. saturday was okay but we couldn’t go any higher than the top of the gondola. and sunday…well, i’ll admit that after 3 straight days of snowboarding the weekend before and the experience on saturday made me lose my motivation and energy to get up early for fresh tracks. that said, by the time we went up to seventh heaven, we had to jet down because…

i had an AMAZING time up at whistler last weekend…the weather was just perfect and we hit powder almost everywhere we went. The most memorable time was on Sunday, going through the backcountry of Creekside with Jigna, Matt, Sri and Noemi—it was just a winter wonderland! [sigh] Check out some of the pictures I took. I got a chance to meet Tito, Pierre’s best friend from Montreal–really great guy. Anyhow, loved it so much that I’m going back up AGAIN this weekend. Check out the snow report though–it’s sick: New snow: 11 in. 24 hours: 19 in. 48 hours: 47 in. 7 days: 61 in. Powder powder–here we come! This…

120,190 — my new high score on bejeweled. For the last year, I’ve been obsessively playing this game that I downloaded onto my palm…and was challenged about a year ago to get over 100,000…a task I deemed nearly impossible. Last week, I just went on a streak and that’s what I ended up with. Wahoo! Sadly, it’s nowhere close to the All-Time high for the Timed game as posted on the Astraware site of 40,943,880. How in the WORLD do they do that? las vegas was a lot of fun–took lots of pictures which’ll i’ll post later. it’s been YEARS since i’ve been back…and i was sad to see a…
