Step into the mess for a bit.

Hello again, my little piece of the world.  I have been gone for a week or so.  While it is true I have not showed my face here, my mind has been here the entire time.  Although, to be 100% honest, I have been cheating with a new blog space.  I'm obsessing about my body again and have decided to start a new blog: http://cleaneatingwithadirtymind.blogspot.com  For the last few years I've been vowing that I want to take some cooking classes and/or learn to cook.  With no employment at the moment, and the uncertainty of what lays ahead, I haven't wanted to invest too much into volunteering so I'm taking this time to enjoy the kitchen.

What else do you ask?  Well,  PIB and I went rock climbing on Sunday.  It was a beautiful day here in Brisbane.  The entire time I was on the wall I was blogging in my head.  The feel of the rock under my fingertips, the trust you put in your shoes, the hard and longer  you climb, the warmer you'd get.  There were so many parallels with life when climbing, I just couldn't stop the thoughts.

Thus a entire post was blogged in my mind while climbing bottle stopper at KP.  However, I didn't take any opportunity to write it down and thus, I can only write about thinking about my post.  I took forever to get up the climb though.  Poor PIB was wondering what the heck I was doing - Bottle Stopper is only a 14; however, I would pause at easy holds and feel up the wall.  In all honesty, I was thinking about how many options we have in life and how when we don't trust the elements in front of us; we tend to take a different path.  Even if we know ourselves and we know the other information is solid.  If we hesitate, we don't get the same results then if we just jump into things.  I was also thinking how its funny that when you grab a really nice hold, if you didn't think about your next move before taking that hold and moving on, then you might be fucked in the end when your decision to hold on to the "marriage hold" left you in a bind further up the wall.  Therefore, sequencing is a good idea, not just when you're on the ground, but all the way through the climb.  Just because something looks perfect from one point of view, it might not take you where you need to go once you're in a different point of view.

Blah, blah.  Okay, enough of my babbling for now.
