An Exercise In Futility

Sunday was a lot of fun. I have since acquired a copy of the CFSC Handbook and hope to take the first course in October. Last night i was at the gym. Bouldered for about half an hour and managed to complete a difficult one i’d never been able to complete before. Moved on to top-rope, and couldn’t finishing anything (5.10+, 5.11). Hands were just too worn out from bouldering! So i ended the night with a leisurely 5.9+. Definitely pleased with the progress.

This sunday i’m off to the Nanaimo Fish and Game Club to watch some of the ISL Qualifier that is being held. I figured it was time to bite the bullet and start getting involved. For pics of the last IPSC BC shoot, go here

I woke up at 6am today, which is odd because i was really tired when i went to bed at around 11:30 last night. the difference, i think, is that i did not eat a lot before i went to bed — and i had dinner early. Most mornings i am pretty groggy and can’t get our of bed easily, but we usually eat around 7 or 8pm and go to bed around 10. The main reason i was tired last night was because i had been to the gym. I climbed only 5.10 routes, mostly the 10c or 10+. I’m feeling very good about my progress; my stamina has increased, so now i need to focus on some of the tougher gripping techniques.

It is very bright in here today. very bright.

I am trying to run network cable in the basement. It was supposed to be an hour-long task… What sort of fucknut fills wall cavities with scrap drywall and wood?!!! I now have way more holes in the wall than i’d like, cut for the purpose of finding obstructions so the fish tape will get through. Fucking ridiculous!
