Obama got in my way

Was going to BKB with Jess, and just when we were ready to leave, Houston was block because Obama was about to roll thourgh: crap. I thought about pressing on the gas and ducking, but Jess was against it, so we opted for the subway.

The back of BKB had been re-set, so we had plenty of stuff to work on. I did V0, V2, V2, V3, V3, V4, V4, V4, V5, V4, V3. I tried a couple of V5s I couldn't finished as well.

Andrew, Jill and Emily showed up and Jess left as she was coming down with something. Headed up to Sheep station for a poutine and $1.50 beer afterward. Then Jill expensed a cab to Loreal, sweet.

Packed like...

Headed to BKB yesterday. Met Alistair and Andrew there. The place was packed! It was hard not to fall on others, or to get on a climb. Combine this with the 1 hour trip to and fro, and the chalk in the air, and this place is looking less and less great.

We started in the steep room. I did a V1, V2, V3, V4 and then played with some V2s and V3s. The V4 took me a while to get, I really was not moving well. Alistair and Andrew worked on some 2s and 3s.

We then headed to the front part and I worked on a V5. I tried it about 5 times and fell on the last move each time. Very frustrating. Andrew worked on stuff I could not see and Alistair was taking a break.

We followed that with the campus boards and the sandpaper open hand rungs. Did some nice exercises. I think I will try to add a few of these at the end of every session.
