Friday glee says well that's nice HOLY SHIT DID HE JUST DO THAT

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.

N.B. Please feel free to post your glee on any day of the week; the Friday glee is just to get the ball rolling.

To enhance this week's glee: Charlie Woodburn on the first ascent of Something's Burning (E9 7a) at Pembroke last month. Wobbly cam, but keep watching for what happens at 5:24.

This has been a crazy week. Climbed on Tuesday, and had a good climbing night with my partner, and then we went out for sushi!

But my dog got very sick during the night, and I got no sleep. The next day we were at the vet spending large amounts of money to get her seen to, and she's eating again and doing fine.

I couldn't climb on Thursday because I was having a tooth pulled. More large amounts of money spent. ARGH.

But this morning I'm supposed to climb very, very easy with a friend. So...life is starting to look up again - literally. (grin)
