Sunday Morning

Bailed on the hike w/ E and SJ. Felt bad but just wasn't feeling it. Ended up heading to a party w/ the climbing group. We dranks some beers and watched "climber porn" which was just some climbing videos. Hilarious. One of the videos showed this solo climber who would go up some 600 feet 5.11s. Insane. Well he died on a solo climb in '93. I wonder what he was thinking while he was falling......that really bothers me.

Going to do some climbing today at GF w/ Neal. Looking forward to that. Cleaned the condo yesterday (instead of Veterans day). Hmmmmm......watching CNN and just found that the tax dedcution for giving your car to charity is going to change after Dec. 31. In '05 you can only deduct what it actually sold for not what the blue book value is. I may accelerate my plans to get a new car. BTW- I've decided to buy a Subaru Forrester. Its in between an SUV/typical car and gets decent gas mileage. I talked to a women at Starbucks yesterday who had one and she said she loved it.

Spent some more money this week on a sleeping bag/pad and also ordered some more books from Amazon.com.
