gud weke end on the eastside. drove up friday morning with teh mangler and his dogs to Pine Creek.
Did a couple warmups, then got on teh Atomic Gecko. That shit is hard. Basically, it's 7 bolts of continuous 11+/12- crimp/sidepull/crimpsidepulling on a gently overhanging wall; no rests, no real let up. Needless to say, I did not zend. Took a TR run after getting the rope up, got beatdown on TR as well.
Met up with Nate and his gf in Lake Crowley, ate dinner, then drove up over teh hill to Reds Meadow. Hit the Bear Crag Saturday and Sunday. Fired teh Flamed Thrower on second try of the day (4th try overall); that thing is excellent. First try I had gotten the last bolt clipped (where I fell off both tries last year), but then couldn't do the awkward shit above to get to the anchors. Got some better beta, and barely zent on try #2. After that I onzited teh Moisturizer, one of Big Tony's rowts. It's probibly only seen a few ascents, and could use some cleaning up. Fun, but not as good as some of the area classics. Scoped a bit of beta on the first half of Bear Backin' It for Sunday.
Next day I warmed up, and took a couple goes at Bear Backin' It. Second try I got through the crux boulder problem but was too tired to recover on the jug + knee scum rest. Will probibly have to get all the beta on that one really dialed in to zend. Took a TR run on Flying Circus; that is definitely not a classic. It's basically a painful dyno sequence to easy, not that steep jugs. Hiked out, ate a burger in Bishop, and drove home.

Ended up in the Palisades this weekend. Did the rain make it to you before you were done Sunday? It was raining yesterday morning at Glacier Lodge. Ended up meandering back to SD watching the thunderhead in the rear view.

Yes. I'm glad I went to the ER, while I was there for 5 hours it was pretty good one stop shopping.
Thought I was doing okay with the fever, but it was back up again when I woke up this afternoon. I'm hoping the binding effects of the tylenol will counteract the loosey goosey effects of the anitibiotics.

If this is the case, they must be handing out Tylenol-Codiene like it is candy to our northern brethren.

I wouldn't hold too much hope in that. And why are you taking tylenol, anyway, instead of ibuprofen? IMO when you are already taking medicine that relies on you having good-working liver (such as many antibiotics) it is better to go with ibuprofen that doesn't strain the liver as much. But I guess it also depends on which antibiotic you are taking.
I hope you get better soon, whatever you are taking.

Ibuprofen doesn't seem to make a dent in pain for me. I don't know how well it works on fevers either.
I hear what you're saying though, and I'm trying not to take too much of it today, but fuck my lower back aches. I figured it couldn't be too bad if the doctor approved giving me a dose while I was in the hospital yesterday.
At home again today. Trying to eat (I think it's the antibiotics making my belly hurt). At least being sick is great for weight loss? Would like to get the car in the garage today if I could to get the air conditioning looked at.

Also should mention that we went and looked at sprinter vans on Saturday. Fuck, these kinds of vans are expensive, and buying them second hand is still expensive. Hopefully if we buy new then we can at least get decent resale out of it at the end.
We also looked at the new (to North America) Dodge van. I'll have to see it's track record over in Europe to get a good feeling for it. The Ford Transit is coming next year (2015), but I think we want the van before then.

Ohhh, nice! You should see the pics of the van that Banz's friends have built. They are here with it, and it is pretty sweet. Solar panels on the roof, and all. I'll take some pics for you before I head home.

Yes please! Right now the biggest question is how big a van we actually need. If Nathan wasn't 6ft tall we would require a lot less space for a bed.

I could easily take this bet and then tip the odds in my favour, but 1) I'm still not sure if I could tips the odds and B) if I did manage push hard enough to tip the odds you would just start odd on the likelihood of our divorce.
