climbing mishap about to occur @ojahnn

@quasihaiku No, I always wash in morning hours, prior to going out to work. Morning hour brings dripping

My bathroom drain is still cloggy, by now it's almost 12 months in this flat and I still got no working piping 😑 Is it too much to ask to wash my hair and body without flooding that room??

@mxsparks oh my, good luck to you! A pal just did that thing a fortnight ago. It's scary, but worth it! 💜💙

@starlit Haha, good for you for looking it up! And thanks for your good wish, I will promptly go about growing back what I'm missing 😉

Today's workout was a hair's width away from qualifying as optimal: Good tricks, good tracks, good holds, good pals - and chatting to a guy I didn't know, who was sharing a bit of his wisdom. Sadly, I also got my first "flappy". (If you don't know what that is, don't try to find out; it's not harmful, but slightly gross.) I was lucky in that I only got it around my workout's two-hour mark, so I was okay with stopping for today. I'm going back in two days!

@kit good luck! But don't pay too much plz, I still want to do lots of things from now to Christmas

@mxsparks @mxsparks Hi! Cool of you to join us in Oulipo town!

@mxsparks It's a scary alt-nick, just for this month!

And now, I'm hanging out, playing Shroom Hair Guys LPs, and starting round upon round of Mahjong and Microsoft's Bomb Finding toy. (I'm nostalgic that way.)

Today I finally took that autumnal walk I was looking forward to so much! My husband and I did a tour through a calm, sunny park, not far from a spot in which a handful of mortal dust of humanity's first cousin was found 160 yrs ago.

I'm on my own on a sofa on Friday night, in want of a snack and a hug but lacking both, working on stuff I shoulda got out of my way during working hours but didn't

@kit Oh no! You okay now? I'm also slowly starting to find out that I must go back to static moving...

@GiorgioQSarah Try our fish!

(and occasionally submit my work to confs or workshops - so far to no avail)

it is ridiculous that I am paid actual living-standard amounts of dough for this job, in which I do nothing but study and transport wisdom to young scholars

Now that this campus is in "class modus" again, my Thursday is again a day full of distractions, no lunch, and no actual (good) work. Although I did put down ~20 words today... Can I call it a day? #gradschoolipo

I wasn't so happy with my workout today. With my cold, I wasn't too strong, but I didn't want to skip climbing... No additional tops, but I did do a handful of difficult tracks again. I'm sort of worrying about my instability in moving -- lots of struggling, improving a hold that was mostly good to start with, losing grip and doing things too fast. Should probably do an hour or two of "stability training" on non-hard tracks.

Soooo, my husband and I got him his own climbing kicks last night - and in that amazing small shop also got a handful of 50% off coupons for first visitors to our climbing gym. But I don't know anybody who is around and hasn't had a go at it! Do any of you wanna hang out in my town and catch a good workout? 😎
