📺 Finished watching: The Climb (2023) on HBO Max, created by Chris Sharma and Jason Mamoa ★★★☆

I’m a climber who has always enjoyed the bromance between Sharma and Mamoa. So I was super interested in this series. I found it a bit pedantic and cringy early on and was disappointed that Mamoa had basically zero involvement with the climbers. But everyone was personable and showed up in a big way in the actual climbing. I grew to enjoy the series and was on the edge of my seat during the finale.

I just finished my first run using bone-conducting headphones, and it was the best exercise audio experience I’ve had in forever! No ear pain, no worrying that the earbuds would fall out, and I stayed totally aware of the world around me. I’m afraid this spells the end for my Beats Fit Pro.

The practice of rising early enough to greet the sunrise is not one that I’ve mastered. But I’ve never regretted it, either. #mbmar 31 📷 (timeline | grid)

The mirror reflections on still water always mesmerize me. And apparently my dog, too! #mbmar 30 📷 (timeline | grid)

It’s sometimes wild to think about the rope systems we climbers use to support our lives. #mbmar 27 📷 (timeline | grid)

This spice rack is one of my favorite things in our kitchen. It’s so much better than the drawer of jumbled containers we used to use. #mbmar 25 📷 (timeline | grid)

Finished watching: Shrinking on Apple TV+ 📺

Right up there with Ted Lasso and Trying as a smart, charming, heartfelt, and laugh-out-loud funny show. Jason Segel, Harrison Ford, and the whole gang really pulled off something special here. It’s some of their best work and I loved every character.

24 bits of old climbing webbing, boots, an Apple TV, a board game, an Apple Watch, and some more camping gear. (Some of these items can be purchased from my OfferUp page if you’re interested.)

Boots, webbing, bags, and other random items sorted on the floor.
