Yesterday--for reasons as yet unclear to me--i went climbing again. i was sure i could finish a project. i was in the bouldering cave watching some guys working it (badly), and one of their girlfriends decided to stealth climb over my head, bail, and fall on my head from somewhere near the ceiling without apprising me of her plan beforehand. She didn't (by the grace of God) break my neck, but she addled me pretty good, and i had a crazy headache and a numb arm for a while. Ah well; at least she apologized. i finished the climb in smooth style, only my numb arm wouldn't clutch the finishing giganto-jug. i was mildly irritated as this represented a breed of mechanical error i thought i'd engineered out of the system. i'm totally willing to blame that chick. Anyhow, the climb'll definitely go--i think at stiff v4. But i didn't get it. i should not have clumb, but i got roped in by a friend who ended up bugging out on me.
Today i got in an hour-and-a-half ride. Very nice ride. Actually had to pull out the sleeves. Definitely getting a bit stronger on the bike. So i've graduated from "miserable" to "mildly embarrassing". But one does not go out clad in lycra seriously worried about how one comes off to the public. Been holding at 191lbs the last couple o' days. i do think i'm working out better with the re-intro of cereal and more carbs into the diet. Gonna try to get some chest/triceps in this evening. Vamos a ver.
