Had a really fun weekend in San Diego. Caught up with old friends, crossed the border for the second time in my life, had excellent sushi omakase, went to a vape shop for the first time (sweet milky flavors are delicious), did some climbing, watched a great movie called Kubo. Overall, an excellent experience. Now to rest.
I was really tired yesterday so I skipped a day. I’ll put in 40 today to make up for it.
Starting stopwatch…
