Got the elbow cast off yesterday, but now my elbow is super stiff and i can barely bend it... thanks to the hospital booking my appointment a week too late, so i have to physio it like a mad man for the next 3 weeks... atleast i got a better sling for it this time. Erin moved back in yesterday too, so now it's Erin and TJ living with me, we all get along so that's good. Happy birthday dad! Hot water tank is busted and the landlord is in China, his buddies that fixed it last time couldn't figure it out, so they're gonna call Home Depot tomorrow and see if they can fix it or replace it... gonna be cold in the shower the next few days. I'm gonna go work on my elbow, seeya.
edit: won't have hot water for atleast a week until they replace the tank... great.

I've had a cast on since January 8th and it's getting really annoying... hard to shower, takes 10 minutes to make a sandwich, can't wear pullover sweaters, have to wear my jacket hanging over my arm so it gets cold fast, have to type with one finger, and so on. I go back in to the hospital on Thursday to get it checked out, so hopefully the cast comes off that day too. It used to be really swollen, one day it was like twice the size of my other arm, and painful of course... but that's where the prescribed t3's kick in! Erin is moving back in on Thursday too, so it will be TJ, Erin, and myself living here... stoked! I think I'm gonna shave my head again, I liked it better when it was short. TJ hurt his tailbone last night at Grouse coming off a box, I'm sure he'll be back in action soon though... and I can't wait until I can get up there and snap some photos! 3 weeks without being able to take photos is killing me.
I met up with JF Lessard and Nic Cote yesterday, they shredded some plaza, then we showed Nic around... we went to Hastings Bowl and Leeside, fun fun fun! Adam Dufour showed up with his girlfriend for a bit too. JF and Nic showed me the ULC catalog, I had two photos published in it (backside of the cover and the back cover), soooooooo stoked! I checked out the newest SBC and Colour, I love seeing what the Canadians are up to. Then JF, his girlfriend, Nic, and myself went out for dinner to the Yaletown Brewery, really nice restaurant! I got myself the Shanghai Ginger Beef, came with rice and red/green peppers, it was super spicy, but awesome! They have good beer too! It was nice to meet Nic. After that I parted ways with them and chilled out with Jarek for a bit at his place and watched Satori Movement, chill time. On the way home from his place people were leaving the BC Place from the Lil Wayne concert... chaos in the streets. So many people, it was crazy. TJ is at work (Sportchek) right now, and I'm bored out of my mind, so I thought it was due time for a blog post. Weather is amazing outside, nice and sunny and I can finally see the mountains... but not much I can do with that right now...
Also saw this ad on Craigslist, some people should learn to spell:

Sorry I haven't been posting as often as usual, it's because this happened to me:
Went snowboarding at Grouse for the first time with TJ, and 5 runs in or so I did your basic catch the edge going full speed and my arm broke the fall. I dislocated my left elbow, tore some ligaments, as well as fractured it... great time.
Now I have to do everything with one hand, or as with typing this... one finger, it's getting really annoying. Takes me a long time to do everything now, the worst is making food. Hard to sleep at night with a full arm cast that is super itchy underneath and I can't even hold a camera... but I was able to scan some film yesterday, 3 rolls to be exact. Here is some family:
Dad
Grandma

Went out for dinner with Erika to the Mandarin, all you can eat Chinese buffet. We ate so much we literally threw up... Holidays are over and I'm heading back to Vancouver in the morning, flight leaves at 7am, so I gotta wake up early, great. Then I have a 40 minute or so flight to Toronto, then my next flight is at 2pm, great. Not much to do in an airport for hours...
I'll post up some photos when I get back.
Also I need to find a job, hopefully with photography, anyone?
