Wednesday (thank goodness)

Apparently I've got smart mice, or the traps are harder to set off than I thought. Three of the four got cleaned out last night, but didn't go off. Harumpf. At least I was right about where the mice are coming from. (Now I know why my parents used to use peanut butter on dry cat food; you can attach dry cat food to the trigger such that they can't get it off without setting the trap off. Maybe I'll try peanut butter on Cheerios.)

I shouldn't be hungry already, but I am.

Going climbing last night was a bust, because the gym in Everett is unfindable via Mapquest. It would have been better had the directions not stopped providing street names once we got off Rte 16 East. We knew the gym was somewhere in the vicinity of a peanut butter factory, but we couldn't even find that (although we did find Market Basket and the Kayem plant both by smell (onion soup and hot dogs, respectively). Mapquest, as far as I can tell, universally sucks for urban directions, although it got me to Kent from Boston and to Minerva, OH from Kent. Anyway, whuffle and I gave it up as a bad job and hung around in Brighton and went off for a walk in the rain instead, and messed around with a logo for coffeeweasels.com. The "coffee" part is easy; the "weasel" part is less so.

Still hungry. Something needs doing about that.

Sorry I was unable to attend, I am a willing sherpa and guide to climbing gyms. Plus they have their directions on their website.

So what's your opinion of this particular gym?

I'm mulling over trying climbing again, though I'm not sure how my toes will fare.

I liked this gym a lot, actually. HUGE, lots of walls to climb, and a lot closer than the place up in Stoneham/Burlington/wherever that is.

We agree, I just wish I could have found the place without Juliruge being in the car. Drrrr. You should join us. Sorry I was lame and didn't get in touch to let you know where and when we were going. I'm having a very disorganized and over-committed month right now.

Nah, it's all good. I was supposed to get in touch with you, not the other way around, and I ended up having to work Tuesday night anyway. Next time!

Oh, well I guess I feel less lame about that then. Thanks, I needed that since I've been feeling really lame about a number of other things this month. (I am just too damned over-committed and there's no other answer. I think I need to cut some things out of the schedule, but what I can NOT do is a big question.) I think we're looking at doing alternating Tuesdays and Mondays. So the next time we're planning to do it is Tuesday October 3rd.
