Ebb

Weeks like this are just carcinogenic. Wrote a 16 pager in 11 pt. over the weekend. i have ne'er waded through so much biochem jargon before. That sucked. And he made 'er due on the first day of finals, just 'cuz ...i'm going with "failure to synapse." Then we had two finals on monday for no discernible reason. (Ok, the staff decided to have a christmas party on tues. Instead of monday.) So i got to stay up till nearly 4 studying for those. Then till nearly 2 last night. i did climb yesterday. went to study and piddle on some easy stuff. Ended up miraculously sending a v5 project, and a "4" that'd spit me off a few thousand times. It was not a 4 the way i did it, but it went. Studying at the gym was such an amazingly brilliant idea, that i decided to do it again today. Today was decidedly grimmer. i took the harness in with me, 'cuz i was done brokedown. Got some toproping in on the autobelays. Bad climbing; but good times, notwithstanding. (i think you should get you an autobelay in that barn o' yours.) i tried this one thing a few times, nearly flashed it, but the tape on my fingers kept slipping on holds. so i dropped and de-taped. Then i managed to get my fingers stuck in a shallow two-finger pocket. Tried to dyno up to another hold, and i torqued the @#$& outta my ring finger. i believe it was because it was nearly healed. Anyway...still a fun climb.

Less than 19 hours and i can (hopefully) get back on the wagon. i feel like poisoned hammered crap. Lookin' way forward to some time off.
