Afraid

Most people don't know it, but I'm kind of a scared-y cat. In other words, I can be pretty wimpy, but I try not to show it (how wimpy I am). But I'll blog about it. I think that amounts to a confession of sorts.

So I went indoor rock climbing for the second time in life the other week. The first time I went was probably 5 years ago. I think I remember liking it, or thinking it wasn't that bad. So I took that experience into my most recent rock climbing venture but soon realized that when my palms started getting sweaty that I was a lot more afraid than I thought. Fears aside, I think I also realized that if I don't get something intuitively I end up having a hard time. "Plan your moves 3 steps in advance," I was told. Well, it doesn't work like that for me. I have to get it without thinking. So that makes picking up new things kind of hard if I'm not immediately good at it.

On that day I think I ended up being less of a wimp than my sister. Does that count? :)
