Update

Well, I finally have a fully charged cell phone. My recent forced detachment from my 'celly' has shown me in pathetic detail how dependent I am on it. I'd like to say that I've learned a lesson and that I will now try and break the bonds that bind me to the phone, but I'd be lying because I have no desire to do so.

I didn't climb much this week. I'm feeling very old and brittle these days. Mostly this is because of my leg, which continues to limit what I can do, but also because I'm having some shoulder/bicep pain that's been flaring up like a fart on a match.

I did get to visit with my pooch this weekend. Even though it was only for a couple of nights the visit totally raised my spirits. Nancy brought her down with him. It was good to see him too, but I felt like I only saw him for a couple of hours. I had to work and he got so smashed with the other boys that he was asleep when I got home from work. Oh well, next time right?
