Update, a second bottle of cologne has hit the floor.

Another v4 I got video of yesterday. This one I had gotten previously but just hadn’t had the opportunity to film it. #bouldering

V4 - Ignore how sweaty I am, I rode my bike in mid-80s weather to the gym before this. #bouldering

The bottle of cologne I wear everyday slipped out of my hands and shattered on the bathroom floor and now my whole apartment smells like me AND I don’t have cologne anymore :(

V5 I got recently. #bouldering

Nothing makes me more productive than a 2 hour “ambient jungle and DnB” mix.

I know my wife is locked in and working at peak efficiency when I hear Backstreet Boys playing from the speakers at her desk and she’s not singing along lol

Weird couple of days, pretty sure I’ve locked in a raise but I also got a screw in a tire that isn’t patchable and now I need to get two new tires. Ain’t that just the way.

This is not the best I’ve ever done this V4, but this is the only video I have of it. #bouldering

Finally got my first V6 on Friday. Who knew that making a minor adjustment of a few inches to your hand placement would make such a difference. #bouldering

Got a new phone recently, it takes nice photos.

I normally project V5s, but I’ve been working on this V6 recently. I actually feel a bit closer on this than I do my current V5 projects.

This is the only video I have at the moment but I’ve gotten my right foot up to the next hold, which puts me 1-2 moves away from the finish. #bouldering

New favorite shirt.

Another nice V4 from last week #bouldering

The world deserves to see this weirdo #cat

Managed to pick up both Premiere and After Effects within the span of like, 3-4 days?

Not saying I’m great at either but being able to turn around changes relatively quickly in both programs with VERY little knowledge of them is satisfying

Went to a semi-pro wrestling match last week that had more lore than expected.

It’s taken several years but I think I can say with confidence now that my wife is into vinyl. She’s started asking me for records she wants more frequently in the past year.

The collection grows.

I don’t have a camera that can capture the moon well so these are the best I’ve got for tonight. #bloodmoon #lunareclipse

A recent drawing. Started as a doodle and then became this guy. Might draw him some more. #drawing

Between the general dryness of winter, washing my hands, and climbing, my hands have been SO dry and I’m going through a stupid amount of hand lotion.

Another V4 from yesterday. Finally feel like I’m back at the strength I was before I got super sick around the holidays. #bouldering

V4 - the sunlight perfectly highlights my ass at the end of the route. #bouldering

Playing D&D with friends and inevitably we talk politics a bit.

DM: "Let's focus! We are talking about the monsters we can slay; not the ones we can't."

i have decided to count out playoff patrick

Looks like the Chief’s win-by-one-score streak karma came back to bite em

Just now tuning into the Super Bowl. Stoked the Chiefs are losing 👍

The boys (two wolves) are back in town (inside me)
