Ok ok ok.
Here's the real story.
The biner was a legitimate fuck up, my bad yo.
The ch0ck s4c was a fluke; I was taking off EPOCH's backpack (I was being a good second and offered to carry it so he could lead without it) and it got stuck as we were changing shit up at the anchor. Thinking the waistbelt was a bit stuck, I gave a yank and it ripped the belt buckle in two.
I blame Friday the 13th.
BUT, I got the ch0ck sack back, which Doc didn't manage. Thus, since I got it back and lost it doing good, I'm one above Doc and the Greatest Second Ever.
Jay and I had a real good time, despite being behind the slowest climbing party ever. I didn't really mind, we got to hang out and take in the view. Hope to do it again soon (climb, not wait). Jay is a solid dude, climb with him if you get the chance!
The only "meh" part of the day happened when I made an awkward reach behind me (following a pitch, thankfully). Must have done it just right as my bad shoulder popped out slightly. Subluxation, same thing that happened a year ago. Good news is it already feels good, but rest is in order. By the time I get out west, I should be ok I think.
Not many pix taken, unfortunately

If you were sitting around hanging out waiting for the slow fucks, why no pics?

Wrote this down yesterday afternoon:
In reply to: I just remembered a dream i had this morning. I was soloing, climbing something in the 5.10 range i think, when near the widening top of the slightly overhanging crack I was climbing in I came across a block wedged into the crack. When I grasped it with both hands, it fell free, taking me with it all the way straight to the ground and landing on my left side. I remember feeling the fall the entire way to the ground, my delicate organs turning to mush on impact, my legs broken and twisted. I was conscious the entire time, and when someone came running to my body, i remember trying to tell them that my legs tingled in a funny painful way, could you please make them a little more comfortable please. This is when I realized that I could not speak or move.. It was then that I also became conscious of the fact that I was dead, that I did not need or want medical attention... just turn my eyes up to the sky please. when I awoke from this dream, I lay there on my portaledge (hanging it from the side of the truck for convenience and comfort) feeling the dream move through my entire body. It was something... different? ... strange?... alarming and yet peaceful in its own way. I wonder what it means? It has caused me to be more cautions about soloing today, this is certain.
It is unusual for me to remember dreams, when I do they're usually kind of fuzzy. I ended up getting on Wheat Thin, trying to onsite solo it. I reached the crux and had to downclimb, just couldn't get my head around it.
On returning to the Bath Rock parking lot, I happened to run into an old coworker of mine who'd just finished soloing around on Bath rock a bit. He suggested I join him for a quick run up Theater of Shadows. Turned out to be a fine one to get the head back in shape, a super-soft 5.7 but 4p's long with the best views of The City once you reach the summit. Put it on your to-do list, WMD.

Yeah, while you posted this, we were fighting off a collective hangover at a driving range. I still suck at golf, but it is a lot of fun to whack the shit out of a ball on occasion.

YES! I am not the only one who dropped something that can be made into a vaguely sexual reference off of thin air!!!!

I'm beginning to think it was just an elaborate excuse to get out of climbing with WMD.

I don't think we brought the camera. I probably would have dropped that, too. We were chatting with the people we were sharing anchors with, didn't really think of it.
Oh yeah, Jay dropped his cell phone too. It didn't go over the edge, though. But the effort was there.
Jay, did you pack the camera at all?

Also - I'm going to spoil it for WMD - WMD has a 1UP on DOC. Not only did he drop one of my biners, his sack dropped on Thin Air. He speaks like a man now. You should have seen all the white crap flying everywhere as it fell. There was a party of three that took for-fucking-ever ahead of us. I think he was trying to impress the ladies... So, if anyone finds a sack at the base of Thin Air that is filled with white crap, it belongs to WMD and he'll come and pick it up in person. Wait, he just returned. He found it. Doc's nuts are still unaccounted for, though. I missed this the first time through. Think you could provide us a sampling of the replies to his note?
I wanted to write "Check the base of page 1562 of the BET, to$$3r!!" But I didn't have a pen. I might be in that area tommorow, maybe I will do it then.
Jay had the idea of mailing it to someone from this thread.

I was soloing, climbing something in the 5.10 range i think, when near the widening top of the slightly overhanging crack I was climbing in I came across a block wedged into the crack. When I grasped it with both hands, it fell free, taking me with it all the way straight to the ground and landing on my left side. I remember feeling the fall the entire way to the ground, my delicate organs turning to mush on impact, my legs broken and twisted. I was conscious the entire time, and when someone came running to my body, i remember trying to tell them that my legs tingled in a funny painful way, could you please make them a little more comfortable please. This is when I realized that I could not speak or move.. It was then that I also became conscious of the fact that I was dead, that I did not need or want medical attention... just turn my eyes up to the sky please. when I awoke from this dream, I lay there on my portaledge (hanging it from the side of the truck for convenience and comfort) feeling the dream move through my entire body. It was something... different? ... strange?... alarming and yet peaceful in its own way. I wonder what it means? It has caused me to be more cautions about soloing today, this is certain. It is unusual for me to remember dreams, when I do they're usually kind of fuzzy. I ended up getting on Wheat Thin, trying to onsite solo it. I reached the crux and had to downclimb, just couldn't get my head around it. On returning to the Bath Rock parking lot, I happened to run into an old coworker of mine who'd just finished soloing around on Bath rock a bit. He suggested I join him for a quick run up Theater of Shadows. Turned out to be a fine one to get the head back in shape, a super-soft 5.7 but 4p's long with the best views of The City once you reach the summit. Put it on your to-do list, WMD.
Cool Sty. Will do!
Careful soloing.

Poor guy is going to have to sit through a wedding sober. Ha. That's what you think. So when is/was this damn wedding? I'm beginning to think it was just an elaborate excuse to get out of climbing with WMD.
Me 2.
We should climb thin air and then drop the rack.
We'll use your stuff, Doc.

Yeah, I look forward to that day.
Have him mail it to me, I'll scan it in and post it up.

We were chatting with the people we were sharing anchors with, didn't really think of it. Oh yeah, Jay dropped his cell phone too. It didn't go over the edge, though. But the effort was there. Jay, did you pack the camera at all?
the camera was in the top of the pack all day and I didn't even think of pulling it out. Sucky me. Next time.
Though I don't know how the boss is going to take to me taking the first three Fridays of this new job off. Kind of sketchy ethics if I say so.
Looks as if I'll be able to make Tard Farday for the Ruckus.
Fuck it, I'm making another post ...

In other news...
I made it a 3 day climbing weekend.
Tood friday off to unsucessfully cut WMD's rope. Unfortunately we used my rope all day and I'm too much of a cheap bastard to cut my own rope.
Yesterday I was out for about 3 hours ropeless at the boulderrrrrrring spot down the road.
And today we awoke early enough to race through the rain to get a climb in at Camden. So, I've been out three times this weekend. HA!
Same thing next weekend, except it will be 3 FULL days of climbing - plus the hienous approach drive. But the good this is that finals are this week so I have no commitments to school or otherwise for this trip.
BAM!!!!! For the PTFTW up there ^^^
