Words of (pant pant) Wisdom

If you feel like maybe you're a little too out-of-shape to climb a mountain properly, guess what - you probably are.

I wanted to spend my day off doing something a little more unusual than laundry and not watching my next movie, so I floated this idea around work the other day. And I'd like to give thanks and props to my friend Stef, who was patient enough to let me take 1,000 rest breaks, endure my frantic "I'll never make it" bitching and moaning, and not let me plummet down a cliff to hasten the promised deep-fried refreshments waiting at the bottom.

The important thing is, we made it. All the way to the top, and (by God) all the way back down again. And I sure don't envy the Family Von Trapp, who set out to Climb Every Mountain.
