Homo’s Invade Bishop!

Wow, what a freaking weekend… Amazing!

So, Thursday afternoon Leigh, Rik and I headed up to Bishop. Got there and checked out the Buttermilks, then met up with Todd, John, Tony, Sophia and Claudia for dinner. Had a great time then headed off to go camping. Made blue and black berry cobbler and had a great time!

That night all of them were gonna sleep in one tent and I was gonna sleep in my tent… Then suddenly as we were getting ready for bed, there was no room, so Rik slept in my tent. Random

Got up Friday morning and met the boys in town for breakfast then headed out to climb. Did some really awesome climbing at a wall that I forget what it was named, but it was a lot of fun. I didn’t get to lead ANYTHING this weekend, which I was a little sad about, but I’m glad that a lot of other people got to lead some stuff and what not. Rik even lead a few! Nice work.

Gavin, Steve and Eric showed up a little later and we moved to China wall. I had been to this wall a couple weeks before with Leo and Tim. I don’t think I even climbed a single thing there this time! I hung out with Tony mostly doing another climb which was a 5.13a! Insane climbing these guys! I belayed him, which was a lot of work. Rik came up and hung out for a while as well there.

Got done around 6ish and headed back to town, met up with Jake for dinner, had 14 people total there at dinner. Throughout the weekend we had 17 people come and go. After dinner we all headed back to the hotel. Our room was like a frat party room. What a mess!

Had some drinks and then crashed in bed. Tony slept in bed with Rik and I that night. There was some hanky-panky going on. I just wanted to cuddle, but I dunno if Rik or Tony instigated it. Rik and I jacked each other off and then I heard him and Tony making out and jacking off later that night. lol. Boys! I guess that’s what happens when you get a group of gays together!

Saturday Claudia, Pepe, Tim, Leigh, Tony, Jake and I went out bouldering at the happys while the rest of the group went to the gorge again. We had a really great time at the happys. Didn’t really do to much though. Got done around 4, went back to the hotel, hung out for a bit, went to the hot springs, back to the hotel, dinner with the rest of the gang, then back to the hotel for a big party night. Lots of whiskey, beer, pot, sitting in the parking lot, sitting in the room, etc. It was so funny because we were all passed out by 10pm! LOL.

That night rik and I slept together again, things were a little more heated, but still only jacking off.

On the topic, Rik is a really nice guy, very cute, very smart, etc. But he just is so fucking annoying. He’s so pretentious about everything and so opinionated and unwilling to even accept that people do things differently. Like he yelled at me for saying “pop” instead of “soda”! REALLY!? Ugh. I dunno what to do about him.

Steve Woo on the other hand. I am so in love with him. LOL. I have had a huge crush on him since I met him 3 or 4 years ago. And even since we started talking on AIM which was 5 or 6 years ago! And spending this weekend around him made me even more Woo crazy! He and I are going out tomorrow. Should be fun!

The group in general was pretty awesome I’d have to say! Great group of guys, lots of fun, very smart, and of course, very cute! 🙂 I was so happy all weekend with these guys. I’m glad that I started this group that our first big trip went off great, and I hope that our next trip is just as awesome!

Came hom EARLY sunday morning, which I was sad about. I wanted to stay and do another day of climbing, but alas, George had his recital to go to, and I felt obligated to get back for it. So we went, I was tired, slept though most of it, then drove home and crashed in bed!

I woke up Monday morning, very depressed and not wanting to go to work. 204 emails, people bitching, etc. Just not my idea of fun. But it turned out Ok because I got A HUGE raise, and it was retroactive back to last August! So that’s awesome!

Still a bit depressed about work, being single, etc. Feeling fat and over weight as well lately. Not helping! Ugh.

Stupid company appreciation day tomorrow. I have to golf… And it’s in corona! And WE have to have dinner with them, AND I have a thing to be at in Silverlake at 9pm. Ugh. Gonna be a long ass day tomorrow. I’ll probably go to work late.

Riverside Rock Quarry and Lake Perris!

Woot, climbing! Lead 5.9 Roof! Awesome, epic, no pictures! 🙁

So it was a great weekend overall. Friday I just stayed at home and packed stuff up for the weekend. Saturday I met up with Leigh, Rik and Eric and we headed out to Riverside to the Rock Quarry. Great times! Did some awesome climbing, had a great group of people, Todd, Steve Woo and Gavin were there as well. Jerry and Claudia came for a little bit.

Rik’s a really cute guy, but so fucking annoying. He needs to learn how to shut up for a while. Everyone else is of course great. Woo is my lover. lol. I did get a message from him the other day saying “You’re off limits. I can’t use and abuse you. You’re too valuable”. WTF does that mean! Ugh boys.

I hope that John comes out this weekend to Bishop!

Anyways, it was a LONG day out there climbing. I got home at like 8pmish. Good times though. Didn’t do anything that night, just cleaned up and went to bed.

Sunday I headed back out to Riverside, just south of where we were Sunday and went climbing at Lake Perris with Jerry and gang. Great times again. Did an AWESOME 5.9 climb with a roof. Scary shit! I was pretty impressed with myself. Then Jake and Sophia climbed it without a problem! LOL. It’s amazing how much a lead vs top rope climb can get you!

Came home late again, sat around the house, didn’t do much.

Work has been busy this week, not as busy as expected, but still busy. I’m only going to hit like 30 hours this week.

I made the switch to chrome. So far I really like it, a few minor complaints here and ther.

IN BIG news. I’m an official Ambassador to the homo climbtastic group! I’m excited! I love the description that Alex came up with for me! ahhahaa.

In sad news, I’m depressed that it’s been 2 years since I’ve had a real BF! Ugh. Where’s the good guys!

Shooting, Climbing and Dialing

Hey everyone. I’m back in LA! Thank god and things have been going great.

So this past weekend we went shooting and climbing. It was a good time. Actually had a big group of people, even after Claudia and Sylvia went bitch fest on the whole shooting thing. I think like 11 people? It was lots of fun! Nick and I went and looked at condo’s downtown after that and it was interesting.

That night supposedly Sylvia was gonna go out for Claudia’s birthday, but I never heard a damn thing about that, whatever! Blah.

So Sunday I went out climbing to Stoney point, it was cold and windy! But it was still good times. I tried to climb Vicious like 5 times and failed each one! 🙁 Blah. Oh well. Elsie from work was out that day, AWK.

In other news I’ve been working on this auto-dialer. It’s really neato! 🙂

Mary is still being a fucking bitch. I can’t wait for June so she’s gone for another 9 months.

This weekend LA LGBT @ Riverside rock quarry. Good times! 🙂

A Week in WA is WAY to much!

A week and a half in Washington. I honestly never want to have to come back to this office. The office manager makes this the WORST place for me to work. At one point she even seriously asked me the question. “Do you even have any friends”. Seriously! She’s a KNOWN homophobic, last year there was an incident where our CFO and HR manager had to fly up to have a chat with her.

This trip was no different and even though she was only working 4pm-10pm, I still had WAY to much of her. On Friday and on Monday we got into HUGE fighting matched screaming at each other. In one instance Phil was in the office and he witnessed everything.

I think I took the high road and reported it directly to her boss in LA to try and head things off. She on the other hand wrote her WA boss an email making HER sound like a little saint and saying that I didn’t do anything until she got here, blah blah blah.

Allan,

I wanted to make you aware of an incident that happened tonight between myself and Chris B. Of course I will give you all the details you want in person, but just basically know, that he isn’t understanding how important it is to get the grower reports fixed. According to him, I am making a bigger deal out of it than it really is and it’s “not his problem” However, this is the current status of the reports:

They still aren’t separted by recovery % by day.

They still have harvesting info for all growers.

Out of the six growers we had for April 1st two of them have incorrection YTD info.

Grower notes are not on the report.

Chris had all day to get the receiving station up and running and he waits until I get there to have me call Aaron.

Allan, I would suggest that if Chris doesn’t have the grower report issues fixed by Thursday when we have to do the next grower reports, I would like to do it the “old” way. It makes us look unprofessional to have to write on the reports or ask them to “disregard” information on their report. This is an important year, and I would hate the growers to have any excuse to not sign new contracts.

Talk to you tomorrow.

Mary

Ok. First of all, I gave her THREE ways that should could correct the mistakes on the report and send them out. She REFUSED to do any of them. Second I worked ALL day trying to fix the receiving stations. It just so happened that I was AT the end of my trouble shooting when she arrived and I asked her to call Aaron. THIRD, half the things that she complained to Alan abou the report being wrong, she had NEVER once told me that it needed fixed on the reports. AND LAST, the report that she claims I Don’t have ready for her at all, THEY WORK JUST FINE. There is ONE wrong number, which is the YTD receiving pounds. I am SURE that a simple explaination to the TWO of 6 growers who have this problem that we are working out kinks in a new system and it’ll be corrected on the next report that they would be fine with it. She is making it this HUGE deal and that if the number is wrong the growers aren’t going to sign a contract with us next yaer. I HIGHLY doubt that ONE number on ONE report is going to cause them to not fucking sign the contracts for next season. I can ONLY imagine what she is saying behind my back to Allan. Once she got to the office the next day they both ran off for about 2 hours.

She’s jsut flat out a BITCH and everyone knows it. She also has no idea how to do anything and is WORSE then the LA sales people when it comes to change. Last year she bitched and bitched and bitched that her computer was just WAY to slow to get anything done on. SO at the begining of the season last year I bought her a brand new computer. I get up here this year, and it’s STILL IN THE FUCKING BOX!

About half way through the season last year she requested a scanner. I sent it to her the same week she requested it. Get here this year, STILL IN THE FUCKING BOX! UGH!

THis year she requested new monitors. I’m not getting them for her.

In other news, I did get to go and do a run around WA. Saw some awesome climbing spots called “The Feathers”, went up to this place called Dry falls (awesome canyoneering), Saw coulee dam ( I don’t get the US’ obsession with DAMS as tourist attractions), drove through some VERY pretty indian reservation and it snowed on me! 🙂 Did all that on Saturday, drove back to the hotel.

Met this cool guy with a HUGE dick. Yum. hahaha. We had dinner a few times, had some fun, went out to the bar one night. He’s a nice guy and a REALLY nice dick.

Umm, worked mostly to be honest, clocked 67 hours last week, plus 6 hour Sunday, and then 14 hours on Monday and 10 hours Tuesday.

Last night I decided to treat myself to a fancy dinner at the hotel. It was gross. I got a pork chop and it was really dry, not trimmed and the mashed potatoes were gross. Oh well at least the company will pay for the $40 dinner!

Other news, this week I REALLY missed both Morgan and Mossman. Ugh. I talked to John some, he admitted he has a huge crush on me, so cute, why does he have to be leaving! He’s a great guy and totally outdoors and awesome. lol.

I also got a random ass email from Austin who I haven’t heard from in years! He said he missed me and wanted me to come visit him in San Fran. Crazyness.

I’m also kinda pissed at Claudia and Sylvia. I tried to plan a nice birthday day party for all the climbers who are having a birthday in this first part of April which are Claudia, Rex, Leigh, Julie, and on a more personal level Nick and Steve Woo. So we had all been talking about a day of shooting and then a dinner party for them. So I made an event for the 4 of them and Sylvia made this huge deal about how not everyone wants to share their birthday and it should jsut be for Rex and Claudia because Leigh never come and “who is this julie anyways”. Seriosly, Leigh is WAY more a part of the climbing group then she is, he has been climbing with Jerry and George for far longer then ANYONE who currently goes. Second I understand that maybe not have all of them to the dinner party, but the day of shooting, which JERRY is paying for, who cares, they ALL have birthdays, how rude would it be if we just made it about rex and claudia when all SIX of them are having bithdays. Sersiouly, Claudia’s attitute lately has been really pissing me off about not wanting other people to join the group, etc. And anymore if anyone who ISN’T part of the group come she gets pissy. Ugh. So I got all pissy, just cancelled both events and told them to figure it out.

Thankfully leigh picked up the stick and planned a day of Shooting. Claudia mentioned that she was just going to go to a bar and “whoever wanted to come could come”. But no one has mentioned anything else about that so who knows. I probably won’t go though.

So yeah, that’s basically everything, I think? Other then the normal I’m sick of being single, blah blah blah.

I really should start writing more detailed posts agian… Perhaps I should fly more and get stuck waiting for plans because the TSA is uber slow!

Yosemite!

So last weekend I spent a 4 day weekend in Yosemite.

It was of course, GREAT!

Drove up there on Thursday and just hung around, didn’t really do to much up there, but it was still fun!

Hiked, camped, cold weather, etc.

Not to much to really report from the trip.

Although my new goal for the summer is to climb half dome! 🙂 Can’t wait!

Later!
