My Celebrity Trainer Told Me Not To

The first person i was suppose to climb with in the south east was a dude that worked at climb at blueridge gym.  Got to know him alright after a few climbing sessions.  I had a rack and really wanted to get out to shortoff, he did not know trad(pretty sure he still doesnt)  on monday, hey dude wanna go camp and climb at shortoff this weekend?  Yea for sure dude!!!  I text him several times throughout the week and he is “so in”  i text him friday morning, still down to climb...  its 530pm and im driving his way.... “I wanna go to this party”

So pissed, its ok though i went solo and i met one of my fav climbing partners, Preston, on the trail up to shortoff at midnight as i was cooking dinner in the middle of the trail, got lost, bivyd ended up doing “the daddy” in the amphitheater instead which is several miles hike away from shortoff

“I wanna go to this party”
