APB: Climbing Partner
I know I should go to bed, but my to-do list seems to get bigger and bigger. Good news... it's distracting me. Bad news... it's distracting me to the point I want to tear my hair out.
I've decided that property management isn't a job that I like to do. It's a pain in the ass and I'm rather fond of a stress free life. This. Is not. Stress free. Ugh. I need to figure out how to get my mom up here so she can do it herself or have someone else do it because I have no desire to do it any further.

So during my emotional roller-coaster fraught of abandonment, I put out an APB for a new climbing partner via craigslist. Well, tonight I climbed with said probable replacements and... it was so-so. Nothing fantastic. Nothing bad. Just so-so. Will it continue? Maybe. Not quite sure how this is all supposed to play out. I mean, I like my BWBB as my partner. I like that we get grub afterwards. I like the weight on the other end of the rope. I am worried though, that it won't last. It won't last when either of our relationship status changes. Because neither of us want to hear about someone else. That's just how it goes, you know? Cool things about climbing w/ Red - she's short. Short people can learn from other short people when climbing and that's kinda cool.
Side-note... I got up that 10 in the chimney w/ only one take towards the top. I'm sure I can get it w/out it next time. And oddly enough, I felt it was easier than the -10 I attempted the other day. So, yay me! Not sure I could do any other 10 in the gym, but give me a chimney and it's got my name all over it.

And so what of the emotional abandonment roller-coaster? Well... at the moment, I'm not abandoned. I'm in an odd position, I suppose. I'm stuck between the urge to find someone to fulfill my family dreams and the urge to just chill out and focus on other goals in my life.... goals that don't require someone else.
