I might be up for a s. lake wash ride... Being that the closet I'm using as a crash pad is down in the leschi area,

Well, other than the scary bit with the dogs, and the smell, it is really not all that bad. Being that I rent, I'm not having to deal with the bulk of the issues, and I can't even start moving my stuff out until after the insurance people arrive. Terrible? Nah, PAIN IN THE ASS? yes. Everything always works out one way or another BTW, I'm not continuing posting on this to gain peoples sympathy, I just find it easier to write it once here, than to have to answer a whole bunch of email/PM/phone calls as to the progress of things. If it is bothering anyone, please PM me and I'll stop

Dr. Doug Hanel UW roosevelt clinic, HMC, and I think he has a clinic on the e. side as well.... Although he is a surgeon, he does need to operate all the time, and will at least be able to point you in the correct direction. He has worked on a lot of climbers, and understands their needs.

Doggies are still recovering at vets... Might get to bring them home tomorrow, more likely monday... Continuing inventory of stuff it sucks to loose... Camelback (replaced as of today with a better version), chalkbag, My BRAND NEW la sportiva mythos (I thought it smelled like a red neck campfire complete with burning rubber...) and, to top it off, there was a fresh 6 pack of guinnes in the fridge (the one that is melted shut). DAMMNIT! Hey, does anyone have a bigish, crappy tent they might be able to do without for month or so? I'm kinda keen on setting one up in the front yard and staying there on my non-work days so I can get more shit done, and stay out of the hair of my emergency crash pad benefactor, and perhaps in doing so extend my welcome If I can't find a tent, maybe I'll have to have one of those culverts from the hike in to static point shipped in, I'd try a fridge box, but I don't think that would have room for the doggies AND me.

did I post this already? http://homepage.mac.com/ljjames/PhotoAlbum43.html Wow, they had some facts way off...

Update, Doggies are spending weekend at the vet, getting 'roids bronchdialators and antibiotics. House smells like a redneck campfire gone awry, now boarded up, insurance dudes coming in a day or so. Things i have already learned... exactly how many wash cycles it takes to get smoke smell out of clothing. (2 wash with soap, 1 rinse) Alcohol, not soap gets soot off of computer and other solid items. That all my buddies at cc.com totally rock, and thanks for your kind words. That I like my peat and smoke in a bottle, not as a complete living environment. The walls look "good" in charcoal gray. That having a fire is a very very dramatic way to get a remodel started. not one I recommend. I'll get around to pictures... the kitchen carnage is spectacuar, now now, no bad jokes about my kitchen... Klenke, you were correct, it was a magnetic ballast.

was at work, apparently happened just before I got home. Always interesting to come home to a firetruck or three in front of your house. Thank God I am still renting. almost got arrested crossing the fire line to find the mutts. They were already gone to the vets by the time I arrived. Apparntly the news has great footage of them with nasal O2 being delivered. Thank God they were okay. All my crap is fine, a bit smelly, but fine, nothing but the kitchen got torched. It was a florescent light that freaked out apparently. got overheated or something, shorted, fell down, and caught the wall on fire. Pretty fucking amazing. Dogs were sleeping upstairs.

If anyone is in need of a house sitter for a month or so, two dogs and a girl are sorta homeless, gotta get our grocery carts... As seen on the late night news, thanks to the quick work of a some superhero fire fighters, the furkids are okay (okay, under close watch for the next few days) BUT, the kitchen is toast and there will be some remodeling to be done. Luckily we do have a place to stay till things get sorted out. Cross you fingers for the mutts that their smoke inhalation resolves quickly and wtihout incident. Pub club will not be at Icegirls this week.

thank you, merv, I could not have put it better.... shalom

maybe one thrust in, and one wrenching pull out? I dunno. He really didn't want to discuss it that in depth... Maybe it was pleasure/pain thing, or maybe, just maybe it was just too late and he couldn't stop... D'oh!

I rarely post about work, but today I saw something that I must pass on, if not for the painful humor, then as a Public Service Announcement. Being that I work in the operating room, at our local trauma hospital (and having done so for 5 or so years now) I feel like I've seen quite a bit (not all, mind you, but, well... a lot) I've seen penises injected wtih crystal meth, I've seen penises that "god told them to cut off" Some Amputated, some not fully detached, I've seen penises nearly ripped off by motercycle crashes, but todays case took the cake. I saw a genitalia peircing injury for the first time. Basically it was a run in between an intact foreskin, and a labial peircing. The chick must have gotten her order mixed up, cause from the look of the poor guy, she must have had on a "freddy kruger nipple shield" a la Janet Jackson, (hmm. maybe a clitoral shield?) long story short, it cut the dickens out of the poor guy, so bad that the poor foreskin was not salvageable, and had to be removed. Circumcision time... Try explaining that one... Morals of story, watch out for genital jewerly, and if you like that kind of stuff, For the sake of your manhood and the Poor ER doc your predicament would drag out of bed, let's hope your parents had you circumcised as a baby... Hope this makes your day seem better...

"will follow just about anything" wasn't half bad...

LOL! But is he one of ours?

Hey ya loosers! Luck of the Angels.... (or "my Mt Si adventure) We were born waterproof! (okay, I did wait for the main lightning to pass before climbing the haystacks) Wooohoo... Just shy of 2hr to the tippy top! Not bad for slug butt... My feet hurt tho, was on he way to tiger for a quick jaunt and was wearing the wrong boots. can you say blister-rama? Lightning was goin nuts on tiger. Figured Si couldn't be any worse so I might as well go take a look.

hmmm... here I thought this was a thread about tacks, you know, saddles and stuff...

lol... well, having grown up 4 miles from the canadian border, i have no idea what this whole discussion is aboot... we would really like Canmore. Canmore would be good. quick! Specialed! J_Fisher! Write us up a draft! We really must get this ball rolling!

yup. strangely facinating... I like the one at night when the car wraps itself around the pole a few times. I guess I always wonder the crashes look like that bring the playa's to the big house (Harborview) Now I know. Of course here in Washingon you'd also have to include the "ATV runs into tractor" footage

Mt Rainier is just downright angry this year, menopause or PMS, not sure which, i guess it depends on if this is a cyclic occurence and her age (you know, mt. years, like dog years?) At least she has not gone and blown her top like her neighbor.

It was a joke and a bad one at that. I stopped just short of saying if you were really in touch with your feminine side, this would be considered PMS. BUT, since you have no feminine side...

old sensitive masucline in touch with his uh.. ******** side is a bit 'touchy' today, no?

how'd yer testes, i mean tsetse, I mean tests go this morning, hope we didn't keep you up _too_ late in the penalty chat box...

Hmm... I think I liked the climbing picts and the TR better (at that I laughed!)... as for the next few pictures.... Aiiiii! MY EYES!!!!!!!!!!!!! okay, just kidding! Keep up the good work and don't let the man (or tha cc.com lack of wo-man) keep you down!

Geez, with pictures like that, how can you not have women flocking to your door?!?! women with a strange fetish, that is....
