Oh, the pain!

Sun Jun 28, 2009, 12:52 AM
OK, so I can be a bit of a wuss sometimes, and I've never liked being hurt (who does, right?). And yes, it did take a lot of effort on the part of my friends to get me to go rock climbing before I finally gave in and decided I actually quite liked it. But, boy, the boo-boos you get and the aches and pains are something they just don't warn you about!
Now I've only been climbing a couple of months, but already I've suffered from scrapes, scratches, numerous bruises, scabs a-plenty and the most indescribable aching in my elbows... But all of this has paled in comparison to the pain I currently have in my fingers. Seems I overdid it last week and now I've gone and strained my finger ligaments. Now I know it's not all that bad, but I do have a nasty habbit of forgetting about injuries like this and I've been working on some art and comics in the last couple of days which isn't helping my poor, sore fingers any. Moving them while drawing is helping to stop them stiffening up, but it's certainly not helping to ease the aching! And to top it off I'm supposed to be doing more climbing today...
Glutton for punishment, that's what I am. Anyway, assuming my fingers are still attached by Wednesday, I may have another picture to post later this week.

...I wonder if they'd object to simply winching me up the climbing wall today?
