Thoughts on Possibly Climbing a 14-er This Weekend
"I find life itself provides ample and sufficient tests of my valor and mettle: illness; betrayal; fruitless searches for love; working for the abusive, the insane and the despotic. All challenges easily as thrilling to me as scrambling over icy rock in a pair of barely adequate boots." - David Rakoff
An interesting perspective - and one which I might have aligned myself with a lot more readily in the past.
Besides, if I get up at 4 in the morning to hike up to 14,000 feet, I can definitely have like 60 margaritas back in the Mile High later in the day. That's what the kids call "motivation." And the counselors call "alcohol dependency." Ba da DUMPED!
