SOLSTICE SOLSTICE SOLSTICE SOLSTICE

THE SUN IS COMING BACK WHEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

Also the eclipse yesterday was pretty nifty -- it clouded up right after totality, but I got to see the shadow and then more shadow and then the creepy red hey-it-got-dark-out-here part, so I think it was a fairly complete Eclipse Experience.

Also I am now Off Work for the Holiday and all prepared to finish my Christmas shopping tomorrow!

And today and yesterday both someone brought ENORMOUS PILES of cookies to work! So I ate at least one of most kinds! And have been running entirely on sugar for two days!

And I went climbing just now and I did my first 5.10b, yay! And a 5.10a, or maybe two, I forget, and some 5.9s, including the one I couldn't get last time I tried it that is all about climbing up over sticky-out bits and is, it turns out, EVIL.

And now I have veggie sticks and hummus and yogurt dip!

So life is pretty good!

Is the sugar the cause of all the exclamation marks? :)
I'm sad that I didn't know about the eclipse. I would have stayed up, I think. Brooks' post was good, though, and nudged me towards my own turn of the year thinking.

The sugar is not unrelated to the exclamation marks! (Using up all the sugar by climbing may also have something to do with them.) But I feel much more balanced having had veggies, now. Mmm, veggies.

Aw, I mentioned the eclipse to Alex when I was out walking the dog, because I was pleased it seemed to be clearing a bit. Pity he didn't pass that on.

SO powered by sugar... heh.

I feel obligated to point out my previous writing on this subject.

I am envious of your eclipse experience. We were completely socked in. I've only seen one, and it was really cool -- we had a bunch of kids over, and I was hoping that they'd get to see it. :(
