you keep finding new hand jams and fingerlocks in various places in your car. Like that great two finger lock at the edge of the dashboard or the handjam next to the spare tire in the back.

When you find a handjam next to the spare tire in the front, you may not be climbing enough.

you draw funny looks on the metro for using the finger pockets in the side of the car instead of the handrail when standing on the train.

12. When your girlfriend (soon to be fiancé) says that she always dreamed of being proposed to in a romantic place and your reply is, "you mean at the Gunks?"

Coming in from London
over the pole
ridin in a big airliner
chicken flying everywhere around the plane
lord I couldn't feel much finer.....
To keep this on topic - I broke my neck a few years ago. And I fly a lot on business. It has been my great pleasure and privilege to fly over many of the continental mountain areas of the US, many times, in all seasons, etc.
So as a climber and a mountaineer of course I pined for the coveted 'window seat in front of the wing.'
I knew before boarding any flight (still do) which side of the plane was likely to offer the best eye-balling seats.
well I get terrible neck cramps if I eyeball out the window too long. And yet... I can't stop myself.
So if you're flying somewhere and you see a strange old man at the window seat, face plastered to the window, alternately making cooing noises followed by whimpering?
It may be me... obsessing over climbing. Hurts so good.

You have a plan for climbing to the ceiling for every room you've ever been in.
And for particular rooms (office meeting rooms), you've already come up with mental eliminates.
