But what if a shitty belayer is ALSO a sprayer?
Is jack's hate additive, or multiplying?

Can't figure out why I am so freaking tired this week. Unlike gg, I didn't even get home THAT late. Didn't climb on Tue. Set for the bouldering comp on Wed, so some climbing, but not that much. Climbed some Thursday night, and felt like a was moving through molasses. Feeling sore and beat-up today. Ugh!

Food intake maybe?
I haven't been doing much of anything this week. Tuesday was a write off. Could have gone biking or running, but took a long nap when I got home from work instead.
Wednesday I decided to catch up on the run from Tuesday, and tweaked something in my neck about 2km in. Decided that there was no way I was going to be able to do a climbing exercise routine so I better make the most of the run and kept running for another 6km at a crimpled pace.
Yesterday I went to the Chiropractor. Got my neck moving again, though it’s still a little sore today. Went for another run but decided that an upper body workout wasn’t in my best interest.
This week has been a bit of a mess for me. This weekend is calling for a lot of rain, but hopefully I'll still get out climbing.

I am hoping to get some bulbs planted. ("Some" means about 200)
Baby monkey has her first meet of the season.
My students invited me for dinner to mark the end of the class. (more food intake!)
I don't think there would be that much climbing...

This weekend is calling for a lot of red rocks.
Not sure what teh plan is, as far as rowts. We're not doing lev 29 as a grupe of 3, since hamik bailed off to yosemite the moment it was open. so, maybe lev 29, maybe nightcrawler up on brownstone wall, maybe something else.

Had been climbing three days on, so decided to take a rest day and hike out to the crag to just hang with some friends. Maybe do a bit of mellow tr-ing. Anyway, joe was in full on adventurneering mode. Did this ugly no star 11d at endless, and it was so traversy and steep that he could not clean it on lower. I figured, what the hell I'll tr clean it. At the second bolt, right after unclipping, ad as I was moving into a right traverse, a foothold broke and I pealed. Joe was slacking on belay, and I took a huge winger, swung right into a tree and full on slammed the trunk with my thigh. Limping now, the muscle may have been hit with a baseball bat, and I can't high step worth a goddamn. Same leg as the LisPaul. A bit pissed at joe, the guy has never been a super tight belay even when I've yelled at him. Looked at the fall after I lowered off, and there was no fucking excuse for me hitting that tree. Hope the thigh heals quickly. Gargh. rite behind sprayers i hate shitty belayers next. even if they're shitty belaying takes owt a known sprayer? A conundrum. But what if a shitty belayer is ALSO a sprayer? Is jack's hate additive, or multiplying? Are ewe telling me teh clamhed iz also a shitty belayer?
Whatevah. I'm a grate catch.

More important, tomorrow is bridge day, when base jumpers meat bomb off the bridge for spectators all day. We always avoided it when we were weekenders, but tomorrow I'm gonna tourist the shit outa bridge day.
Thigh is recovering. Took three days off climbing and feel like a gnu man!
