I am.
But I can't decide what to do today. I'm going to go to bed shortly, this much is certain.

But should I just sleep the whole day through, or get up, step out into the sunshine and go climbing? I just don't know. Yesterday was meant to be a rest day, but I climbed anyway. If I go again today my fingertips will end up red raw, my muscles shot and I won't be able to climb very hard on Monday. But it might rain Monday anyway.

Or maybe I should go and sit in the park and drink all day.

why not...
sleep all morning, and then drink in the park all afternoon?

Oh, I'll sleep all morning anyway.
By "day" I mean the time between about 1.30pm and whenever it gets dark.

then go drinking in the park.
sounds most sensible to me!

Or I could combine plans,
by sleeping all morning, then going to the crag with booze, getting drunk and climbing.

Falling off becomes much more likely but somewhat less painful after a few beers.

I like climbing..
it's fun.

I can't climb with beer in me though. hell.
I can't walk with beer in me.

It is fun.
With beer in me, worries of the big hard ground fade away and I feel like I can pull on the tiniest of holds. Sadly things like balance, co-ordination and the ability to see these tiny holds vanish.

It's alcohol's ancient curse: the feeling of being superhuman while barely functioning at the level of a retarded toddler.

gotta love the harnesses!
My balance and coordination aren't brilliant at the most sober of times...

Crag?
Edinburgh?

Leeds.
By crag, I just mean a bunch of rocks that you can climb on.

Sorry
Sounded very much like an Edinburgh pastime, rock climbing with junkies
