Bliss or Oblivious

Christine February 6th, 2010

me: Skiing merrily along on a favorite run.

Matthew: Skiing merrily along behind.

me: Pauses in an open glade and looks back.

Matthew: On the ground; skis splayed asunder.

me: “What happened? Are you alright?”

Matthew: “I fell back on my skis and have been riding them sitting down, going really fast for the last 75 feet, with my butt on the ends! What do you think?”

me: Oh.

Answer:  oblivious

    Sounds like the way I always skied, snowplow and on my butt. Maybe that’s why I don’t anymore.

    Matthew is actually a good skier; it happens!

    Matthew on his rear coming down a mountain makes a funny picture in my mind.

    Oh – glad to hear you were ahead, Christine! That is always bliss to me.
