My new adventure begins tomorrow at 6:00am. Yes, because I'm eager and excited, but moreso because I NEED to have that room with the insulation. There are five bedrooms in the old barn, and only one has the sweet promise of a good night's sleep undisturbed by shivering fits and numb extremities.
When I got hired at Horton Road, my first thought was whether or not I'd realistically make it in the cold months ahead -- which I know is lame - - but the truth is: my body has a low tolerance for dampness and cold. It just does. If I'm not warm, I'm simply not able to be a real person.
So.....................I've been preparing....because I am determined to overcome my limitations and have great fantastic fun. I've got long johns, smartwool, fleece, sweaters, face masks, ski mittens, raingear and can thankfully fit two pairs of pants on at once. I may look like a bumbling snowman and have the dextarity and finesse of a beached whale, but I'll be goddam warm.
You know what else warms mah soul, that's some Ninkasi IPA... I'm off to say goodbye to Eugene!
Wish me luck!
¡Hola Rach!
