A year ago I would have told you that I would never, if I could help it, touch a foot in my life, but then today in tech we did legs and feet massage, and I got down with my bad skilled self, grabbed ahold of that foot and just went and did it. On a nice Asian boy with really hairy legs, too! The other girl in the class was teasing him, like, "Wax next week, will you?" But I didn't mind so much. These folks in this class are pretty nice, and me and this one girl and this guy, sometimes the class is so awkward and weird that we just end up laughing about it.
DRAPING IS A HUGE SKILL AND NOT AS GRACEFUL OR EASY AS IT LOOKS.
So that was tech, and then in myo we had another test and I realized that all of my tests so far, save one, in every class, have been 100. I got one 95 because I thought one myo question was a trick question and it wasn't. Huh.
I came home and went to pick up Ninja Wizards from Parents and my Da was at the top of the stairs to their house, all frazzled. Haku had had another seizure not 30 minutes before I got there. I felt really bad. But I think it's seven weeks since his last one. Seven or maybe six; I've lost track and I should check back because I wrote that in my blog, too. Either way, I guess it's not too bad of a stretch; and I just hope he has less and less. Although I understand that this is all really unpredictable.
Haku's progesterone levels came back yesterday, too. And even though they are no longer spiked like that of a pregnant female (like they were two months ago,) the progesterone is still there. Males apparently have a little, but not as much of "a little" as he has. His progesterone level is .8. WTH? And the only way to tell if it's something in him, or something in some product in my house, would be to test Sano. But the test is so goddamn expensive (Haku's was free due to an earlier lab error,) and with all these other bills and no more unemployment, well. The vet said that the progesterone, though a mystery, isn't something to really worry about. I mean, don't they put it in stuff to make it better for you anyway? Not like I would have anything with progesterone in it because it would necessarily come from an animal source and I don't have those in my house.
Tomorrow I have to take Sano for his re-check and hopefully his platelets are still on the rise.
Oh! The other day I said I wanted to show the cool drill we are doing in Kung Fu. I just love this one, it's all kinds of awesome, and when you do it for 30 minutes straight you hit that level where your arms and legs stop hurting and your head starts to buzz, and it just feels really great!
Then you can't get out of bed two days later. ;D

Man, my side and spinning kicks have been sucking really, really hard lately. I can't seem to get my right hip to turn over and for some reason I'm not getting full rotation in that hip either. So when I have to snap a kick around, my hip is getting "stuck," like there's a tendon or something that's not going where it's supposed to. Then sometimes when I do a crescent kick that's high, something will "slide" and make this loud clicking noise. What the hell? I love doing kicks and it bothers me that mine have sucked so hard lately.
I'mso psyched because tomorrow I'm getting my stove and oven! Whoop! It's the exact right height and is going to be so much better than the junk I've got now. Now I can really let my inner psycho-chef come out and play. ^_^ The electrician is coming at 8 AM, damn him, but hey.
Let's see, what else. Oh! Sifu said that the Halau could use the kwon to rehearse! That's so awesome. Now we can get our show together and it's at a place I'm already going to. I wonder if we could do it on Saturdays; then I could go there for kickboxing and Tai Chi (if I can get my ass out of bed early enough,) and then just stay there for Hula. Hmm. Anyway, that was such great news. :D
Well! Poor Haku-chan is all sad and post-ictal, and I'm all tired from rubbing legs all day and from KF last night, so I'm going to spend the rest of the night sitting on my ever-widening butt.
YAY!
