Love it. Climbing is important enough to give me a great feeling when I send a project but not important enough to make me depressed when I don't send a project. I'm careful not to put all of my eggs in one basket.

I learned a long time ago that there is no such thing as rock bottom. It can always get worse, and the minute you think it can't....it does. I also learned that the minute you realize that grass still feels good between your toes, that leaves still blow in the wind, and that a smile is contagious, well rock bottom may just be the top of some other hill. Either way, the view from the valley is pretty good too.

I guess I am like most of the other people on here--I am very happy with my life. I have very flexible hours so I can work when I feel inspired and cut back when I don't need the money. I don't have kids and I don't shop, so my overhead is low. I have the cutest, awesomest husband and the best little dog ever, great family, cool friends. So...my only complaint is that the Red is 8 hours from me! I am pretty close to fun mountainbiking though (and better weather than KY).
Hauling a big ego up a route adds at least a full grade.

I'm actually on number 2 brother.. my first one was when i was 30... Each time the docs tell me i have no blockage, even enlarged healthy looking valves. i have a resting heart rate of 44 and good looking lungs (so says the docs again) So your guess is as good as theirs, i suppose. Some folks just have all the fun!
seriously though, they think it's a clotting issue. people always told me i was thick... i didn't realize the were talking about my blood!

Back on topic. life is still A-O-K

I hope you are taking some sort of medication. Asprin or something. You must have some sort of bad family genetic history. But dude, MI x 2 at age 33, a clotting problem I hope you are following up on that. Get a platelet inhibitor on board or something. There is to much life to live.

kipp,

Im at the opposite end of the spectrum. Im working less and loving it. I have an amazing wife, great dog, awesome family, a house with a little climbing wall in it. Hope this new life of yours still allows time to rope up together a couple of times!
Can't we all just get along?
