Pre-Post Season Blues (and Greens)

Without a W-2 job anymore, I find that I have a lot more free time to do stuff. Like read a book. Visit shops. Snowboard all day. Plan out my year. Usually by this time of April, I've committed to post-season plans. This season, I'm lagging. I have to go somewhere. That's not even a question. And I've saved enough cash this season to do something from May to July for sure. I've toyed with the idea of going to South America. But we, Joe S, the Ninja, and I, have unanimously agreed that it would not be a good idea. Not this summer, at least. Then a trip to Indo fell into my lap. Yes! Indo! Surf trip! I think that's what I need. A couple weeks on Bali, maybe a week in Thailand. Could do a dude some good. Secretly, I'm a bit jealous of all the homies and homettes leaving Tahoe this spring. They're hitting the road. Traveling. Adventures. I remember when I was like them. In many ways, I miss the freedom. But life is dynamic and things have changed. Sleeping on sofas for weeks at a time puts a hurt on the hurt back. Drinking all night ends the following day before it even starts. Of the things that haven't changed includes my need for surf. Yes, need. It is necessary for my well being. Apparently, flotational devices are necessary for ninos.

Neon Neon, Does It Offend You, Yeah?, and VHS or Beta have been rocking the pizzle hard. Neon Neon also has an awesome mixtape that can be found here. Downloading it would be doing yourself a favor.
