Climbed again
Dec. 14th, 2006 10:00 pmI got out climbing at the local gym again today. Hands tired, arms tired, me tired. It was good climbing. I did a 5.8 on first go, it was an interesting climb up an arrete, with a bunch of slopy holds which I generally loathe. I also almost completed a 5.9 -- one little cheat -- but it took several attempts, working a section at a time, and because I was using the auto-belay, I had to climb back up to where I left off each time, though I did this not using the route, but using a set of convenient (mostly) jugs.
There were a bunch of kids there who were part of the local cllimbing club/team, and watching them... sigh. Little monkeys. And one guy, late teens maybe, I got to watch going up a 5.10c, just casually climbing it as if it were easy, every now and then doing a heal hook to take a break and shake out one of his hands or the other.
On the work front, the customer has expressed that they're very happy with what we've done this week. Yay. Hopefully they'll email my boss. :)
