Looking up the wall
Today I made Benoit leave the apartment and come downtown with me. He wandered around coffeehouses and such doing work while I was at work. We had lunch at Soup Daddy though, which made me VERY happy because I love that place so much. I guess I had a good time at work too, though I feel pretty dumb for trying to track down a bug or two all day which came down to "deanna forgot to uppercase her filenames" and "Tandem's file storage is retarded".
After work we rode the bus home and then went over to the Vertical World climbing place, where we met up with![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
mh75, Josh, meerkat299, eub, katybeth, and sethml. Everyone else climbed a whole lot and I sat around watching and talking and going "I don't understand how on earth you can stand on those things!"
Yar, but my problems with rock climbing are:
1) afraid of heights
2) no balance
3) bad arches and feet
4) no arm strength
Oh, and umm... 5) not exceptionally skinny. I swear that every woman I saw there was in great shape, and I felt huuuuge. Though I mean, I am working on the weight and the arm strength. It's just going to take a while to get there...
Oh! This morning on my way to the bus, my Harry Potter book showed up and the building manager gave it to me. To my credit, I didn't open it on the bus or at work; I opened it on the way home and then decided "I don't have time to read this while entertaining a houseguest". I rule. Unfortunately, this means I still can't read any of your posts about it, heh.
