Today, on the other hand, was fucking awesome.
Light warmup
Deadlift - 135, 185, 225; 275; 335
300lbs - 5x5
Know that I've had a decent lesson in strap use, these were a lot easier. I'm still not convinced I'm holding a good back position, but I'm not too worried. I also started working on the same "footwork" I use in a squat - rotate outwards, spread the floor, and knees out. This made a huge difference and let me keep the bar closer to my body, and as an added bonus scraped off all of my deadlifting scabs on both thighs. Had some issues with my right shoulder feeling like it was being tractioned out slightly, but I doubt that was actually what was going on (i.e. fairly sure it's an issue of muscular weakness/tightness/whatever).
Hit 18 chins here.
Press: 45, 80
115 - 5, 5, 5, 3, 4
Lost my mental focus on set 4. Sort of regained it on the 5th, but wound up deciding to cut the set short because "I'm repeating the weight anyway."
Not as many chins here; I think it was 13.
Chins: 2, 2, 2
Shrugs: 45, 135, 225, 275 all for 5
High Rack Pulls: 315, 335 (holds)
Strapped Shrugs: 1x5 with 335, then a couple of reps with 335
