when life has you climbing the walls, what should you do? surround yourself with walls that were meant to be climbed.

with that in mind, some friends and i left the problems of chicago behind and headed to... bloomington. sure, there are better places to escape to, but none of them have sixty-five foot tall rock climbing walls in an old grain silo. my crowning achievement of the day was climbing "the short bus."

on the ride to and from bloomington, the car contained two laptops, four cellphones, an ipod, a digital camera, and a gps tracker. yeah, we're geeks.

pictures of our trip are here.

listening to: U2.
in my sink: 2 cups, a glass, 2 spoons, a fork, a knife, 2 bowls.
