19°C, yowza... it's so warm you could be outside in a t-shirt (unlike in, say, July). I had an appointment on the other side of town today but I didn't mind at all, it was the most gorgeous bike ride. I just wish I'd brought my camera!

It can't be much longer before true November nastiness arrives, so I'm making as much as I can of this unexpected gift of awesome weather. Yesterday I went buildering at my favorite spot and managed to traverse the back side of the tower in one go. Yeah, baby! :) I worked on that bit for weeks. There's only one tiny window opening for the hands, the rest is all very narrow holds and you gotta study the wall for a bit to find places to put your feet... so different from climbing indoors. I wish there were more walls like that around here. Why does it have to be all red brick and plaster.

[eta: darn, shouldn't have written that. Now it's raining. The spell, it is broken.]

useful links (well, maybe not so much useful... but fun):
I recently discovered that Damn you, Auto Correct has a DW feed.
(Unlike the feed for Icanhazcheezeburger, this one doesn't completely drown out the rest of my reading list by sheer volume)

Here's an autocorrect I bookmarked because it's like a little poem. (A dirty little poem, link nsfw)

And Cakewrecks has a feed for LJ

In Portal news, I discovered I take a near sadistic pleasure in letting those turrets fall from a great height. I just played a certain part a second time just so I could do it again, nyaaha. Creepy F*ckers.
