Hey man, I'll gladly climb with you. I'm SUPER SAFE, and always check my knot. I wash my rope with gasoline every night, to make sure it is clean for the next day. I also have TONS of chalk, so we can put tick marks all over our proj. If you want to spot me while I do some one finger pullups, send me an email.
On a more serious note, for everyone reading this, this dude is my buddy, and he is a very safe and reliable partner. I trust his lead belay 100%, and he doesn't mind an alpine start to get some good rock.

But he's in Boulder, so he's fucked.

Go to The Spot on Monday. It's student day, so it's only 5 bucks if you get there before 5. Ride the bus - the one that goes down Arapahoe will get you really close - and your student ID gets you on it free.
You'll meet a ton of people. Also, you'll stand in line to try problems, and you'll feel really silly for climbing indoors in Boulder.
It's worth it to meet people, though.
