Thursday thrashing

Big fun today - hairdo for my mother and a couple of nice little walks, puttering around the house, then off to an evening climbing competition. Lots of fun, got a couple of prize items, and a free burger and a beer. Climbed until I hit my ceiling, so to speak, where I persisted until it appeared pointless to do so.
Heard a noise a bit before midnight, came down to check, and found beloved spouse was safely returned from a business trip in the Red State - like environs of Eastern Washington.
Thank goodness. It's hot and too rightwingy over there.
