Bruised hands and Mt. Woodson

Hey, short and sweet.
HAPPY AND HEALTHY in San Diego,
Took a 20 min drive from my house and guess what I SEE!!!

MT. WOODSON! Boulder, crack bouldering.....oh man

Me climbing my first 10a crack..

I did it four times......for practice

Chris repelling down a 12b crack problem. Beautiful lighting. and well, ass shot.

The really nice beautiful 12b crack "lie detector"

And since we were olnly planning a short day of climbing, we got there at 11:30am.....
....we left at 5:30something PM....just in time to see the sun on the boulders. nice. Went into La Mesa for some good Phó Soup. and called it a day. Tomorrow, off to Joshua Tree. Should be fun. Can't imagine it NOT being fun. I might even learn to lead out doors!

University Ave, and my new digs.

So I flew into SAN (the San DIego Airport) at almost 1am, My flight was over an hour late, haveing been delayed IN Denver for a while because Frontier didnt have a place, it got stuck somehwere due to bad weather, a hazard of flying in JANUARY....yeh, well at least I didn't get stuck in denver in a snow storm or something. Ha Ha. I can say that NOW since I am in Califorina, safe and sound. Saying stuff like that in denver would have secured my fate of being snowed in.

The above photo was taken bright and early since I only got like 2 hours of sleep, haveing been programed to wake up at 6:30am EST haveing been "mom" for a week and some. So needless to say, I had trouble sleeping. So I got up early and got some work done instead.



I super dig my new place, I am living in La Mesa with on of my bestfriends. Should be nice. It was the smoothist trasition i have EVER made. I only had to unpack since Drew made me a bed and everything before I got in. SPOILED, oh yeah. I have a work station for while I am here. and that is SWEET. loads of light and stuff.

Checked out one of the indoor climbing gyms tonight, not bad. Prolly check out the other one tomorrow or saturday. My bike should come tomorrow if all goes well. I hope. and then the trasition shall be compleat. I guess.....

God damn man eating strange florida bugs

I have been being attacked by crazy tropical inscets. I have two MASSIVE bites on my neck and not 2 (the same spacing appart as the ones on my neck) on me head....I told my nephew that I was attacked by a middle sized monster in my sleep, and now have him searching through the "Encyclopedia of thhings that Neverwere" trying to figre out what bit me, so far in the running is a fire salamander and a baby dragon. ha ha.....and a vampire. We had to rule out thr Manticore and the Troll as nrither have poison and they both would have eaten me.

I was so annoyed by the bugs that I went and slept in my sisters room. And remain sleeping there last night and will again tonight. It is time for me to go, I am done with super annoying bugs and they are only going to hatch more as spring comes upon us. Time to go. It is a good thing that I am leaving tomorrow for san diego. Whoopie!!



My laundry. Ohhh yeah, you know that I am living in your house when there are always bike clothed and stripie tights drying in your home. ha ha

Vespa, and well......vespa!

So, addie and I went to the Vespa dealer down in Sarasota, FL to check out some VESPAS!!! She had been thinking about buying one so we thought that we should figure it, ya know, if she liked it or not. I had also thought that it might be fun sometime. But.......as you can see, she, well, we decided that she should really have one. (See above Photo)



And me: Well. I just dont think it was me. Ya know.....the whole, I felt like if I was gunna sit one something like this, that I should be peddeling it. and kinda hunched over. But it was fun anyway.

And I got to find out that people are so dumb now that they (VESPA) had to put caution stuckers about not putting you pets in the storage compartments.....serious. Check out the big version of addies photo.

Return of the Coconut

This coconut, got me a PILE of strange bites while in the Keys, infact, I had to get atop Chris' shoulders to get it from the tree. And in the process got bit to hell. Two Plus weeks later I STILL have funny marks on my body from them. They are like poison oak/ivy if you scratch it, it only spreads...so I have been using a lot of band-aids.

But....the coconut, it was worth it.

Everyone Learn some time.

I tough my nephew how to ride a bike last sunday. Quite possibly the most awesome thing that I have gotten to do with him ever. I mean, it is something that you only get to teach once to anyone. super dooper awesome. He got it in one hour or so. I was amazed, since I was the thrid person to try. He has now ridden his bike every day since we started. He is stoked. He ate road a couple times and I had to talk him back into getting on again. and show him a plethroa of road rash that I have from cycling, and he got on again. it is awesome. Did I mention....it was awesome?
