Climbing in BISHOP!

I love Bishop and I love the guys I met up there! What a weekend!

Friday Leo drove down to return his car, met up with him at the rental place around 4pm. Had a good car ride up there, chatted about random things, not really to much. The whole week they had been predicting 70% chance of rain on Saturday, not good!

Got to Bishop and met up with Tim and we all went out to get dinner at this Mexican place which is really good! Back to the apartment, hung out for a while and then went to bed.

Saturday we woke up to nice clear skies in Bishop and packed up the bags. Drove the 15 minutes out to the Buttermilks only to find a blizzard and about 3″ of fresh snow! We all wondered around in that for a while and then headed back to the Happy’s which had amazing clear blue skies and were nice and dry…. Only 15 minute drive from the buttermilks!

Tim had to go pick up his BF from the airport so Leo and I worked on some problems there. I thought I did some pretty good climbing out there, did some nice V1’s; Leo even made me do a V3 which I was dying on! LOL. I think I injured my shoulder on that day too.

Got done with that around 3ish when some clouds started to roll in, headed back to the apartment, met up with Tim and found out that his Bf’s flight was re-routed to LA! So we figured out what was up with that. Leo and I went grocery shopping after that and came home to make some food.

Nate (Tim’s bf) finally showed up around 8:30 and we made dinner, delicious beef stir fry, ate that, hung out, watched a movie with Leo and then we all went to bed.

Sunday we all got up and went climbing at the Gorge, the hike in was KILLER! A couple hundred feet down this very very steep trail that was covered in SNOW at the top. Got to the bottom and it was just amazing weather, did some climbing did a 5.8 and a couple 5.9’s and attempted a 5.10b and failed. lol But my shoulder was KILLING me that day! Ugh.

Got done with that around 6pm and went back to the house, went grocery shopping again, this time we made some mad skilz asparagus and prosciutto pizza! YUUUM!

I called in Sick to work…

Monday we all got up, putzed around the house waiting for Leo to get done with his crazy workout thing then we went back to the buttermilks. Day = PERFECT climbing weather.

Met up with Tim’s friend John and we all spent a GREAT day of bouldering out there… BTW. I was EXHAUSTED! I hardly did any problems but still had a really great time.

Got done again around 5pm and headed back to town… It’s very very strange, but I was almost in TEARS saying good bye to the boys! I had such an amazing weekend, the guys were SO AWESOME and great. I wish that they all lived closer! Tim, Nate and John are all in San Fran and Leo is in New York! How sad! Perhaps I do need to move to San Fran!

BTW. I have a HUGE crush on Leo! What an amazing guy!

Anyways, The weekend was amazing I am thinking about doing it all again NEXT weekend! Perhaps, maybe, just thinking. I’d love to, Leo kept hinting that I should make it up again before they leave! I can’t believe I haven’t been up there before now! WTF was I thinking!

So now this weekend we are all going to J-Tree to meet up with John, should be FUN! 🙂

In other news, I’ve been very depressed lately. No BF, work has been stressful and Trent has not been making it very easy, he’s been giving me a lot of shit for taking days off, leaving early, etc. I’m sorry, but I put in SHIT TONs of time for this company. I typically have my 40 hours by noon on Thursday in any given week and yet when I took Monday as a personal day he gave me shit about it on Tuesday when I came into work. Ugh. And I STILL haven’t gotten my review!

Everyone is SICK!

Everyone is SICK! WTF is up with this shit?

PS. Kevin Rose is HOT! I need a hot gay like him!

Umm, so not much really going on today. I’m actually kinda slow at the office right now, so that’s good. I need to get going on a few projects which are due in Q3. But no one knows what is going on with those anyways, so whatever.

Last weekend was good. I went on a short hike with Sylvia and Claudia on Saturday. Fun times were had by all. Drove to San Pedro after that to meet up with my mom and dad. Went out to dinner at this really nice place called 22nd Street Seafood there. Drove back to my area after that and had some more wine. Good times.

Sunday I was really sickly, but went out rock climbing with the gang anyways. Always good times. I tried to do Viscous 3 times, failed at my normal spot. I really need to get past there! It’s so depressing to get that far and then fail!

Sunday didn’t really do to much more. I think I hung out with this Asian guy, Zach, that evening. He was a cute guy, funny, etc. We watched a movie and drank wine. He came over again Tuesday night and we went out to yougurtland and then he came back and we watched tv and made out on the couch. He ended up spending the night. Nice guy, pretty cute, small cock (and thinks he’s a top), hahah, and he’s very arty, not sure what’s in it all for me. Although really nice guy, so I’ll hang out with him again.

Been stepping up the apartment search recently. Need to get the hell out of my shit hole.

Later all!

Death Valley! – Again

This was an awesome trip to Death Valley. Even though we didn’t actually complete any of the things we started out trying to do! LOL

So we headed out there on Friday morning. I picked up JoEric, Althea and Rex. Met up with Jerry, Jake and Sandra at our normal place then drove on out there. Stopped at a few places on the way there, climbed the sand dunes, had some fun and then went to lunch/dinner. Good day. Got to the hotel which was surprisingly nice for being only $50/night!

Jerry got an extra room for no reason. WE had 4 guys, 3 girls, Jerry and then Jake and Sandra. And yet, we got 5 hotel rooms! I was a little disappointed. So we had Nick and myself in a room, JoEric, Althea and Rex in a room, Claudia and Sylvia in a room and Jake and Sandra In a room. Crazyness.

Friday night a group of us went out to the Casino and had a fun time, I didn’t win anything! 🙁 I really don’t understand the draw of slow machines though! Ugh.

Saturday we got up and went over to the Hole in the wall to try and find that huge canyon drop off. Hiked around for about 2 hours and couldn’t find ANYTHING. Ugh. But it was a fun time. From there we went over to the mines, packed up all the gear, hiked in and found that someone had BOARDED up the mine that we always go into! 🙁 And I mean like they have boarded it up good too!

So we drove down to Zabrisky point, hung out for a bit, then drove over to the badwater and watched the sunset. From there we went to get dinner, excellent time of course.

That night we had a little party in one of the rooms. Sunday we got up and headed home. Everyone wanted to go canyoneering, but Jerry had a bumm knee so we just drove back to LA, stopping at a few places on the way back including Fossil Falls.

The whole trip was tons of fun. Lots of making fun of Rex and my Imaginary love, signing cotton eyed joe, dancing, running around, etc. Awesome time all around.

But honestly, this will probably be the last Death Valley trip I make with the group. I think we’ve basically exhausted the things to do out there that are worth it for me.

I feel really bad about Jerry’s knee too. Even since I’ve know him him I can see he is slowing down and not doing as much as he used to. It will be a sad day when he stops coming on these trips, etc.

And with that, I can’t WAIT for the next adventure!

I’m out!

Everyone is HELPLESS!

Everyone at my company is HELPLESS! This woman this morning got this massage that says “To Continue you must delete this file. C:\Program Files\…..\file.zup”.. And she called me at 5;30 AM to find out what the problem was! If she had just ASKED the other people around her what to do she could have EASILY solved it herself!

Anyways, meeting last week with GTC vs CIT was great. Got lots done, threw them down, got myself lots of praise and stuff at one point the CEO of the other company said “I feel that if Chris Black had been in charge from the begining we would have gotten a lot more done and we wouldn’t be in this situation now”

So I felt good after that meeting, had the rest of the day at work, friday worked half a day then left to go nap. I got home and between 3 and 4 I got like 10 phone calls IN A ROW. I didn’t answer any of them, they would just call, hang up, call hang up, call hang up. UGH! Drove me nuts. If I don’t ANSWER then fucking leave a message!!!

Saturday we all went out climbing at Stoney point since Jerry was leaving town on Sunday. Had a great time, all the normal people were out there and what not. Leigh and his boyfriend even came! Good time was had by all. Claudia even brought this hot boy Sam out. Damn straight boys! 🙁

Drove home after that and packed up and then drove up to Hollywood to spend the night at Silvia’s house. Had a great time hanging out with everyone up there. Lots of talking and drinking and what not. Went to bed around 11ish and got up at 5:30 the next morning to head to Joshua Tree.

Got out there about 9 and setup everything, did some great climbing, had some great fun, etc etc, Total of 9 people out there which was great! Really was missing Morgan out there that day though! 🙁

Left there about 6pm and drove home, found a car on the freeway that was ENGULFED in flames. It was crazy.. Rex was out there, what a total cutie, we flirted all day, too bad he’s straight! 🙁 Damn these straight boys flirting with me!

Anyways, it was yet ANOTHER epic weekend!!

And on the way home, I got very very sad about being single! I’m so tired of being single! Ugh!

Work…24/7

Well, it’s my birthday! Woot… And Friday night…. woot! So why am I not out partying?! I have no idea.

Anyways, I’ve been working 24/7. It’s been INSANE!

Today Morgan randomly IMed me. I haven’t talked to him since Dec 1!! It was really out of the blue.

Last weekend, rock climbing, other stuff, Mexico, Puerto Penasco. Lots of crazy stuff
