Poster: A snowHead

I'm finding I can't help looking at webcams of ski resorts that I went to last year. I've been doing this at least once or twice a week, all through the summer. Is it just me

WiRED, Nope, perfectly normal activity in my book, turn on PC wait for it to load download e mails etc, click on webcam of resort, click on zoomed webcam of resort, make coffee, start days work, obviously as Autumn progresses webcam checks become much more frequent during the working day!

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Totally normal behaviour. It's nice to keep an eye on the places you've been in the past.

This rule runs true for ex-girlfriends too - some of them have clearly not aged as well as others, and there may have been one or two who appear to have swallowed a whole calf......

Bode Swiller, of course not. Still got several pairs of 34" waist trousers in my wardrobe.....

WiRED, Very normal, in fact I would say that if your only checking the web cams a couple of times a week, then you only have a very mild case!
As boredsurfin, says, usual routine is always emails, orders, webcams every day whatever the time of year (oh and never turn your pc off if you can help it, then you can view the webcams much quicker )

It's extremely normal this time of year. It's very important to watch those precious first few flakes appear. It gives you an enormous sense of personal wellbeing.

I have the sudden urge to look at a few webcams.

You know it makes sense.
|
geepee, there are no webcams of me getting into a 34" waisted trouser. Maybe I should set one up?

Isn't a 34" waist a bit fat? I'm sure I read somewhere that anything above 32" is associated with increased health risks, etc. Admittedly I'm a lardy lass, but I'm not that big.

queen bodecia, I think Guvnor maybe a bloke and therefore allowed to be a bit bigger in the trouser department.

livetoski, No, I didn't give you the whole story. It's every day.
I suppose it's all about the anticipation of that first flurry of snow. There's not really any justification for looking every day, although there was that day in June when Tignes and probably most of the Alps got a covering.

I suspect Rule 34 of the internet just came into effect...

Watching the web cams, feeling a tiny little tug in the pit of my stomach when I think of myself skiing down those very slopes.
Frequently taking my skis out to run my hands along the bases and check the edges (nope, nothing's changed since the last time I fondled them).
Constantly playing all 22 ski movies in my collection on shuffle in the background while I potter around the flat.
Welcome to my world.

p.s now the panic is over, web cams get viewed every day as part of the boot up process. I think this is quite normal behaviour.
