Climbing three times a week and I'm trying to go sans tape because I found I climb much better without it. However, I feel like my oozing open wounds are going to get gangrene and my stump is going to fall off. Halp?

Also, GO, I'll be at the Thornton gym tonight gimping it up if you guys get the bug.
We shall be down at the creke for the next week, if anyone gets the bug.

Speaking of ooze and gangrene.

Thanks but I wood rather shoot myself in teh Phace.

Hey, I'd rather you shoot yourself in the fucking face than come join us too! We have something in common!

Now, kindly crawl back into that miserable little hole you came out of.

I knew we'd find something in common. So how's teh snow up there? Looks like moab got hammered.

I guess I'll spray for Lena, since that's not as spraytastic, or something. She just took down Stain at the Doucherlode, for her first solid One Two Ceeeee. It even has a big move in it, not sure how she did it!

Getting kind of bummed on the weather here; everytime I'm werkin' the werkz, it's nice, and everytime I am off, it sucks. Today I rehearsed some pies for Puritan Day, turned out pretty good, and then am gonna try boldering in 25 degree weather tomorrow. Woo!

Thanks for the spray-by-proxy! I couldn't disappoint Mr. Manderson after he so kindly hung the draws for me. I don't know which long move you are talking about... at the crimp section I did something that Mike called "the rose move". The last move to the anchors I jumped just a tiny bit. And all the other moves I just reached.

But mostly, I turned off my head, and just climbed.

The weather was awesome., I couldn't believe how warm it felt on Saturday, with 42F for high, and partly cloudy. I climbed in a tanktop.

On Sunday we woke up to the thermometer at the cabin reading 16F. Everyone wilted (frosted?) a bit at the news. Nobody wanted to be out early, but Ed and I had a long drive back, so we braved the outside world when the temps went up to 19F. By the time we got to Chocolate Factory, it was whooping 22F!!!

Ed was having serious misgivings about any climbing actually happening in such conditions. He was willing to go along, but told me that I would get all the blame, if it was too cold. For fairness sake, I requested to have all the credit, too, in case things worked out. Angelic And they did. he didn't even freeze on the warm-up, he got 11a 2nd go, and flashed 10b, and declared the day a success. Woo, my credit!!!! It didn't break 32F for high, but it was full-sun and pretty nice.

Unfortunately I tweaked my knee on Stain. Didn't even notice it until I came down and sat for a bit. it must have been the drop-knee before the last bolt. Can't bend it past the toe, and any sideways movement hurts.

Kinda bummed, but I am going to give it 10 days rest, and hope for the best.

Hrmm, as I remember, right before the anchors there was a jump move for me off of two crimps. Can't recall the deets beyond that, though.

Yesterday was cold, and completely sunny here, too, with like 18% humidity. Went bouldering in full winter gear, and it was really good; best friction I've ever felt at the NRG; the slopers seriously felt like velcro. Gonna try to get out on the ropes today (it's still in the mid-20s here) if I can find a partner; the only locals who are still psyched on climbing routes right now are me, Craig, Mikey, and Lee.

If I can't find a partner, will go back to the boulders and work on this sweet v8 traverse that is good for alone-climbs and the best PE trainer that I've found yet! Six laps on it should make me feel less guilty about eating all the pie that I've made.

Oh, and some fun dramz in grupe!

Yup, I saw that. Looks like some fun stuff there. It's kind of cool, if you want to go to the South of France you hit Riverside, and if you want Kalymnos, just go to Malibu. Why leave the Land of Milk and Honey, evar?

I've been telling people fore years that the best climbing is in Socak. And its is my firm belief that EVERYONE should climb there.

Yeah, I know what you are talking about. But I don't use the left of those crimps. The one on the right is smaller, but closer to the finish jug, and then there is a tiny pocket with a thumb catch just above it, and the move to the finish jug becomes just barely dynamic at all.

Yeah, friction was amazing this weekend. It almost feels like cheating to climb in conditions like that. The slick sloper I was worried about before felt like I couldn't slide off of it if I had tried.

And all the other moves I just reached.

But mostly, I turned off my head, and just climbed.

The weather was awesome., I couldn't believe how warm it felt on Saturday, with 42F for high, and partly cloudy. I climbed in a tanktop.

On Sunday we woke up to the thermometer at the cabin reading 16F. Everyone wilted (frosted?) a bit at the news. Nobody wanted to be out early, but Ed and I had a long drive back, so we braved the outside world when the temps went up to 19F. By the time we got to Chocolate Factory, it was whooping 22F!!!

Ed was having serious misgivings about any climbing actually happening in such conditions. He was willing to go along, but told me that I would get all the blame, if it was too cold. For fairness sake, I requested to have all the credit, too, in case things worked out. Angelic And they did. he didn't even freeze on the warm-up, he got 11a 2nd go, and flashed 10b, and declared the day a success. Woo, my credit!!!! It didn't break 32F for high, but it was full-sun and pretty nice.

Unfortunately I tweaked my knee on Stain. Didn't even notice it until I came down and sat for a bit. it must have been the drop-knee before the last bolt. Can't bend it past the toe, and any sideways movement hurts.

Kinda bummed, but I am going to give it 10 days rest, and hope for the best.

Hrmm, as I remember, right before the anchors there was a jump move for me off of two crimps. Can't recall the deets beyond that, though.[/quote}

Yeah, I know what you are talking about. But I don't use the left of those crimps. The one on the right is smaller, but closer to the finish jug, and then there is a tiny pocket with a thumb catch just above it, and the move to the finish jug becomes just barely dynamic at all.

Yesterday was cold, and completely sunny here, too, with like 18% humidity. Went bouldering in full winter gear, and it was really good; best friction I've ever felt at the NRG; the slopers seriously felt like velcro. Gonna try to get out on the ropes today (it's still in the mid-20s here) if I can find a partner; the only locals who are still psyched on climbing routes right now are me, Craig, Mikey, and Lee.

Yeah, friction was amazing this weekend. It almost feels like cheating to climb in conditions like that. The slick sloper I was worried about before felt like I couldn't slide off of it if I had tried.

Why ewe haz to cheestit greenie, why?

I haven't climbed since last Saturday. Feeling weird and antsy and all sorts of strange.

We went to see Catching Fire on Friday in a little movie theater in the middle of nowhere. Kids really enjoyed it, and, unexpectedly, so did I. MUCH better than the first Hunger Games movie. I wasn't expecting much, because i thought the first book was better than the first movie. But I think the reverse is true for the second book/movie combo. It was the first time in a very long time that I thought the movie was better than the book.

I told Brian if Jennifer Lawrence showed up on my door step and asked me to be her gay lover, I'd leave him in the dust.
