     What a horrible day yesterday. I knew it was going to be bad. I saw it coming the day before, like a storm brewing on the horizon.

     I was a little tired from not getting enough sleep, and a little delirious from being sick when we picked up our friends at Berkeley Iron Works at 8:30 a.m.. The first thing I did was open the top corner of the car door into my forehead. I must’ve looked funny as hell, because the three teenagers in the back seats couldn’t hide their giggles. I didn’t even know it was bleeding until about 20 minutes into the drive when a drop of blood dripped off of my forehead and onto my eyelash. We arrived early to Rocknasium, a little gym in Davis (that actually brought Beth Rodden into the climbing world). Rocknasium was hosting its annual “Crankin’ the New Year” Comp which I had won the year before and had gotten some cash for (which may or may not have influenced my decision to attend this time around).
