When do we get to trade, Thor? You for the skiing; me for the surfing. That is a loverly picture.

Babygirl, most awesome on the belaying. Sometimes it is good to have a partner to make you feel that way, in my opinion. Gears you up. Makes you strong. As long as at the end, she gives praise, constructive criticism/advice. *gosh, I think I sound like a parent*.

Trade?

I surf better. You X-ski better. Trade. You and Perg also climb better than me, though I deep sea fish better. See? Trade. *wink*

It was just a joke that did not come off the right way.

Exactly. No sense in increasing entropy without harnessing some of it.

The last move on this one looks like one of those desperate frictiony mantels that just suck ass no matter how many times you try them. Ugh.

Owwww - sore arms.

Pushed it a little last night at the gym. New shoes work great!

But when I suggested outdoor climbing she said "for your birthday" Yaaaay! July's very soon! "Next year." Oh.

Still - something to work towards. Especially since the walls of my gym are only 30 feet. The beginner climbs near my place start at 100 feet.

*shivers*

Well - that I can do - but I imagine it would be a much different feeling than inside a gym.
