198.6 lbs.
After two days of terrible anticipation, i shinned on in to throw myself at my li'l v4 again. i finally managed to repeat the crux move, and even (sorta) linked through it from the sit start (although my foot brushed the ground). However, after the fourth time my shoulder tried to disencumber itself of its moorings, i left off for some new source of inspiration. i've got all the moves wired up to the crux, but i can't friggin' remember how i did that friggin' move. i did get it clean once today, but even then i dropped off and was like, Ok...Now what'd i just do? i totally know if i can go in clear-headed and strong i can do that climb-- i've done all the moves on it. But it's definitely a 4. And you sorta gotta hang all yer weight on the rotator cuff for a split second at the end of that crux dyno, and that is a real weakness for me. It's all about twisting yer body in this certain magical way that shifts yer weight onto the biceps in mid-flight, but i'll be danged if i can remember how to do it after i've done it. Each time i've snagged it it's felt easy, but if i miss a bit i have to reduce my shoulder and cry a li'l bit. Not a very inspiring day, but i 100% know that if i can show up strong that it'll fall.

Wow. You're getting skinny.
Lol, yeah... my willowy not-quite-200lb. frame. Well that'll change after a weekend with mum 'n' da'.
Well, did you get bloated on cheap rum and Keystone Ice? That'll set you back a couple'o steps! MMMmmm...
Pabst Blue Medal. i abstained from the liquor, thankfully. Although yer dad finished half a pint of vodka from a flask by 11:00am. Not much of a conversation after that.
