Well it's been forever since i've posted on this thing, so i decided i would make it at least something notable. You shouldn't expect to hear any more from me in the future than you have before, but i've been doing a lot of thinking and i finally have something to post to those of you who would read this. If you fear that you are a member of any of ( Read more... )

so, i've noticed everyone leaving little drink tips and i thought i would share one of my own. 1 part clancy, and 5 to 6 parts high quality irish stout. repeat if necessary. try it. you can even replace the 1 part clancy with 1 part (your name here), but frankly, it tends to make me more drunk with at least 1 part me.

Gah!

so, my birthday is on the 16th. given that i have a broken foot, and that we should all clearly do something anyway, any suggestions?

so, i realize that the audience for my journal here is only about five people, all of whom i know and talk to everyday. however, i've decided to ignore the fact that i know any of you. hopefully that will spare me all the embaressment that would result from admitting to being one of your associates. also, it will allow me to spread the news which i ( Read more... )

here's to buying new gear cheap! here's to Jess' new rack. it's hot! although she knows i love her just the way she's always been. here's to my utter failure to resist an extreemly overused climbing pun. here's to managing to get my new helmet out of the gym without dave getting a bigass rainbow flag on it. woo! here's to all the new weekly ( Read more... )

today is the second class meeting, in a row, of my epistemology class that i will not be attending. i've had soft tissue damage i was more attached to than this class, and there's now a great possibility i will drop it and spend the $115 that the registrar will charge me for dropping after the deadline. i've been struggling with motivation in ( Read more... )

jtree yesterday. after miraculously hooking up with all our groups, who seemed lost forever in the poor cellphone reception of the park, we spend all day at hidden valley. scott, jess, and i all did right and left ski trails. this is awesome! scott got his badass trad lead on, jess got her first 5.11a outside, and it was my first 5.10b and 5.11a in ( Read more... )

so i met Jess' parents yesterday. it was an unplanned meeting and i was a good boy. even when her mother said that Jess couldn't possibly embarass herself as much as mom, i restrained the jokes and stories. the original plan was teaching Jess trad lead at Sespe gorge, but rain, rain, rain, and a big fucking rockslide across SR 33 prevented our trip ( Read more... )
