Finally scheduled an Olympic Lifting class for Monday evening.
I was expecting a relatively high volume, instructional evening.
Nope.  It was test day.  3 attempts at snatch, 3 attempts at clean and jerks, for max weight.
Oh well.
It was fun.
My plan for snatch was 135#, 145#, 150#
135# was wobbly but a good lift, I failed to get under it at 145#, so I scrapped the 150# and retried 145#, got under it, way cleaner than last week, but I still hit the ground with my back knee.  Being a judged lift, it didn't count.  
I still count it as a success, it was well caught.
For clean and jerk, I orginally planned 185#, 195# and 205#, but I just jerked 205# at lunch, I was pretty sure I'd make that, so if I wanted to go for a PR I should start at 195#, then 205# and try 210#.  That's what I did.
Hit 195#, and 205# well.  Failed to get under the clean at 210#, so no chance to try and jerk it. 
I'm happy with that.  Could've been a lot worse!
