F... scroll wheels
I go to allow comments to non-LJ members and somehow cut off comments altogether. Must have accidentally scrolled to another option when moving down to hit save. I really hate LJ's new format. Makes mistakes like that so much easier. Hopefully fixed now. Maybe I can file a complaint under the ADA. ;)
Utterly exhausted myself going to the Sterling Sportrock over the weekend. If they had been open yesterday I might have seriously hurt myself. Either climbed 720 or 840 feet (18-21 full routes) on Saturday. On the last set I wasn't thinking clearly and lost track of whether I had done 4 or 7. Low blood sugar perhaps. Still, a new record in one day for me (previous was just over 600 feet). My bouldering was a tad lackluster the next day of course, but that was to be expected. Don't know whether it was exhaustion or the heat and humidity, but I made miserable time on my long run Sunday night. Just over 7&1/2 miles at a 14:26 pace. Ah well. The important thing is to keep at it.
Had a call from my sister on Sunday. Evidently my being out of touch had caused people to worry. Susan seems to be going ok, though they cut back on her hours. My other sister has some sort of health issue. Serious numbness on one side of the body. The two guesses now are either a pinched nerve or multiple sclerosis. Got to talk w. the Munchkin as well. She was her usual laconic self.
Word of my unemployment evidently got back to my Dad and he gave me a call Monday, saving me the trouble of screwing up my courage to let him know myself. He's going to help out with the rent this month. Didn't ask him about next, though I plan on that being the last one. He actually got to witness some enthusiasm from the Munchkin when she joined in w. Susan talking about work at the vet. Something in her future? Hard to tell.
Trouble getting myself going this morning. Hard to tell yourself to move if you can't see the point. Ah well, tomorrow's another day. Couple fitness and diet entries to make still and a letter to write to Munchkin. Then by the store for mushrooms and cat food and off home for working out.
