We should probably talk a bit about our trip with you too at some point, but it's pretty much the same thing as last year.....but hopefully without the bitter cold. Yes, we should email or PM. It should be much less drama-laden (on my side) as I no longer have to clear my plans with a moody SO...

I've been largely sticking to the more rustic hearth loaf, but last night I made a fucking awesome cracked wheat sandwich loaf WHITE FLOUR!!! RAZIST! Speaking of which, I need a bit more WHITE FLOUR! Almost out...

Very-VERY_ VEEERRYYYY_ WEAK-end report. I touched wet rock. I flailed. I whined. I am weak. And I have confirmed by careful experimentation that even wet rock and muddy tent are better than no rocks at all. Ed sent Burlier's Bane. I call it his 2nd 11c, but am willing to concede that it is his first 11d. In any case, he climbed strong, and I was super-psyched to be there when he sent. It was a long road to come back after his injury last February, broken ankle, knee surgery, and all, but he is stronger now than he was at the same time last year, and that is awesome. Got to see camhead for the first time in a long while. He still looks like camhead, only with longer hair. He also doesn't climb at the Red anymore. and he can do his own weak-end report. I had way too much bourbon, and not enough sleep, and I am sore all over. But I can still climb 5.10 one-legged.

If you hadn't been a damn cripple I would have been really butthurt.

You should be thanking me for making you climb that. I know it would have been cooler to say that you had done two laps on Tuna Town (bottom) instead, but we all know that the bottom of Tuna Town only counts as 11, and Stella is probably stiffer than Tuna start.
