May 05, 2007Why am I able to waste my energy to notice life being so beautiful?I helped Luka's mom with some dogwalking today, and despite the gigantic straw hat, I am thoroughly sunburned. But what better way to get sunburned than a walk by the lake with a four dogs and friends? There were even tugboats, courtesy the US Coast Guard.Sometimes there is more to life than climbing, and those times are generally brought about by pulling a tendon in one of my elbows. At this point I haven't climbed in two weeks, and in fact I've been sitting around for at least a week, because it took that long for me to be able to pick up a coffee cup without squeaking. Which knocked out swimming, too, and since my knees are already shot from soccer, I've gotten caught up on a number of tv shows. But I'm planning on trying this whole "climbing thing" again this Wednesday. We took all the pups downtown to Church St, and wandered up and down while various people stopped to squeal, pet or marvel at them. We also got to take them into OId Navy to look at toys, where we were soundly glared at by a tight-lipped pregnant woman. I did wonder about what people thought that it was all 4'10" of me in control of the big puppy, but he walked very well on leash, and the worst he got up to was accidentally slobbering on a curious toddler. And as everyone knows, toddlers are totally washable. |
