What's The Appeal?

the adorable one and i started watching discovery channel's show "everest: beyond the limit," which is terrifying fascinating and addictive. we are two people that despise, nay loathe the bitter cold. and we're not really one for heights either. so watching a show about people who want to climb the world's highest mountain is not something you would think we would enjoy. but we do! and quite a bit.

i've never understood how people would willing put themselves where the weather is like 50 to 100 degrees below zero, your brain cells die, and so many lives have been lost. i just don't get it and no amount of anyone trying to explain the appeal will get through my super thick head.

the show, to its credit, is a testament to the human spirit. i'm just not that brave.
