I am decidedly distracted today, unable to focus on the massive amount of writing I really should get done today for work. Looks like I’m going to put in some time over the weekend, at this rate. I swear I have ADD at times like these.

I’m thinking of snowboarding now since I’m heading to a local ski/snowboarding kick-off event with some friends this evening. I can’t wait for snow! Though I must admit that boarding out in the northeast is nearly as good as boarding at Tahoe, my previous stomping grounds. Call me a snow snob, I don’t care, but boarding on ice sucks. Anyway, my love for all things gadgety prompts me to think of new accessories for the upcoming snow season. At the top of my list is a new helmet with Bluetooth built in. No, I don’t talk on the phone regularly while boarding, but it’s the easiest way to stay in touch with the people I’m boarding with, and it does become a pain in the rump to dig my cell phone out of my pocket repeatedly throughout the day. So, Bluetooth helmet it is. I’ve checked for reviews of them, but really haven’t found any. Might have to bite the bullet and buy one and then do my own damn review of it!

My quiver currently consists of a Salmon Ivy 146 and a Burton Feelgood 149, in case you’re wondering. I haven’t been using the Feelgood much at all out here – all ice and no powder make for a preference for a shorter board – so I may put it up for sale shortly. We shall see…
