I couldn't get to sleep so I stayed up. This morning I went climbing. I did some bouldering and stuff then I went on the main wall going sideways and I hurt myself being dumb - I landed hard on one leg, so it sort of jammed, and is sore up to knee, on the outside. ow.

Then I came home and I slept, that was nice. Then I woke up just in time for tea, and then it was time for Dr Who.

( My visible reactions tonight, with a mild sprinkling of spoilers: )

Ow! I just got up to go to the bathroom and I nearly fell over because my legs had frozen up, because I came back from climbing and sat cross-legged in front of the computer for six hours, more or less. Ow.

Climbing was fun! There were three other learners and two of them knew each other so I paired up with the other guy and we took turns climbing and belaying (which is when you are the person at the bottom holding the rope so if the climber falls they don't fall all the way, and he fell once which was exciting, and also once they reach the top you lower them down) and I was probably the crappiest climber of the four but not by much. And I fell a few times and one time I nearly landed on a kid, which was funny. It was cool, though, because it wasn't just a taster session, it was learning how to sort out your harness and tie yourself on and everything.

It's a renovated church, which is cool, because it's this big space with climbing walls all round, and the wooden ribs - do I mean ribs? the bits that go across the ceiling for support, and stick down a bit, and they're shapedy - and there's a wee cafe bit up some spiral stairs, and another little climbing room, and stuff.

And we're all going back next Monday for Part Two. And then we get a week's free membership, so I'll probably go a few times, depending how dead I feel tomorrow and the day after.

I went and I did the climbing thing! And it was fun! ( ridiculously detailed babble )

And then called Mim and babbled at her a bit. And then I went shopping and bought ( stuff ) and I went to MacD's and had food. And then I walked home in the rain and dad called me, like, three minutes before I got there, and then there was food for me because they hadn't found my note (which maybe I should have put on the fridge instead of by the phone in the hall? but that is, like, standard note-leaving place, for me anyway) and I ate that too because I only had rice for lunch. Mmm, food.

Most/all of my icons are angsty. Apart from the 'factual' ones. Maybe one day have happy icon? But maybe it not used much. But then I not use icons, half the time. My default is like my online face.

Dude, I just spent, like, forty minutes writing this. And looking back, I probably made far too much use of certain phrases and rhetorical conventions, but who gives a damn? Not I.
