FYI, their climbing technique blows.

So i finally finished the 5.9 blue route at my gym. took me forever, studied it like last month's playboy, but finally----break out the tissues... in a leap of faith, i stuck the last hold (wrenching my shoulder, mind you) and reached the top. it was so easy, didn't know why i was having so much travel. next, the 5.11, which is the hardest route on the wall...we're talking climbing up bathroom tiles. I was talking to Vadim, my climbing instructor, who says he's coordinating a climbing tournament in march at chelsea piers. so if start training now, i can enter the beginners tournie. even if i don't win anything...it's a free day to climb at the best wall in nyc

gonna meet up w/ the nanchingching today and have lunch, then go study w/ her prob at the nypublic library or somethin. but first, we're gonna hit better burger, a health place, where i can get my beef fix!! mmmm, lean beef.

Slow day...

So nothing in particular happened today.

Oh yeah, U2, MSG, May 21st...yeah, i know...huge venue, but i've never seen them live and they're on the "to do" list--along w/ eating off a japanese lady...but since nancy would take umbrage to the latter, i'll pick up some tix.

And another thing...

i just remembered that there is an available apt. right behind mine, a 2 BR for $1200, electric/gas included (a little extra for A/C during the summer). i'm not sure what the place looks like. SO DON'T ASK!! so LMK. thx.

i'm so addicted to partypoker.

poker? i just met her.

i laugh.

Here's one to grow on:


In Other News...

Yesterday was my Bloggy McBlogster's birfday. It was one year ago today that I decided to share my ramblings with the world wide web (which I heard is on computers now!). If you notice in the back catalogue, there is a 2 year gap. I had no idea how to use this thing, or what it actually was...the only 2 people who made entries were camille and ed. And now this flipper baby is 1 year old. And for his/her birfday (i never asked), i will try to update it as much as possible, and put lots of pics up that are very purty---like the one seen above.

Where's all the snow?

That's it folks? that's what you give me, DAMN YOU, SNOW DEMONS!!!...is that the best you can do?

i know i was supposed to talk about something, but now i can't remember. oh well. anyway, i'm draggin nancy to the interpol concert at radio city. i'm reassuring her they're not as scary as they sound and they're all fine well dressed gentlemen.

watched the village today. it was okay, i already knew the ending so it wasn't too shocking. i have 2 weeks notice though now...this is very exciting, now i can watch it whenever i want and not have to wait for hbo.

Insert your "Ooooooohs" and "Awwwwwwwws" here:

Since there's no place to go...

Man, i was sleeping like a baby yesterday. I got home just as the snow was starting and then Steve and Karen were nice enough to let me tag-a-long for some groceries, then it was sleepy weepy time. Don't get me wrong, i got up for bathroom breaks. I had this whole plan to just watch some movies, but maybe that's what i'll do today. And Steve-Kar invited me over last nite for ribs, but as per Nan-ching-ching, I already had my "cheat day" last weekend when I went for dimsum. Damn it!! but she's right. so i looked thru my med cabinet and found these garlic pills that i was supposed to take for my cholesterol, better late than never. hopefully me breath won't stank.

My good deed for the year...i shoveled the sidewalk and entranceways around the apt. this morning. jubei wanted to stay out so bad, rolling around in the snow, running around like a madman, burying himself and what not...i couldn't say no. the duncster of course, too cold and had to be put inside. so the jubster had fun outside, whilst i toil. but it counts as my workout for today. oh yeah, and pater---you're car is cleaned off too--don't say i don't do nuthin' for ya!!!
