After doing some dishes, cleaning leftovers out of the fridge, a load of laundry, downloading audiobooks onto my iPod, and running over the contents of my bag in my head, I’m still nervous. So I forgot to change the oil in the truck (doh), and have been cruising the net while drinking lots of tea.

There’s some cool stuff out there. Everyone should read Jill’s year-end post, for one. For another, anyone not aware of Black Diamond’s vimeo channel ought to check it out.

This video is I think their best thus far. Feel free to skip to around minute four and watch the ascent of Belly Full of Bad Berries (named after a line from a John Wayne film, Scarpelli told me years ago). It is a sick route indeed.

Maybe, eventually I’ll be able to sleep.
