Friday glee is not a bioloid

The Friday post of glee is where you get to tell us about your climbing-related happiness this week.

It can be a new achievement or adventure, or just that you climbed and had fun; it can be that your favourite climbing wall is expanding or that you bought new rock shoes or that you found a cool ice-climbing vid on YouTube. No glee is too small -- or too big.

Members are encouraged to cheer each other on and share the squee.

In other news, I, for one, welcome our new climbing robot overlords.

N.B. Feel free to post your glee in the comm on any day of the week. The Friday post is just to get the ball rolling.

I climbed for the first time yesterday. Getting to the top of that wall was like nothing, NOTHING else except maybe the moment when a piece of writing finally decides to work. I was wide awake, practically high on endorphins for four hours afterward. I've wanted to try it for nigh-on eight months now, and a number of girls at my new job decided to go. All different body types, only one who's tried before. We all loved it.
