la_belle_laideToday was a fine, rainy day. I played around with my new video game that I got for my birthday, The Godfather game. It's pretty cool so far; I got a really cute mobster namedSalvatore that I made up (you can pick all the features and the name,) and so farI've extorted a fewbusinesses, taken over some racketsand roughed up a few shop owners. (That kind of makesmefeel bad, though.)
In case you haven't noticed, my spacebar is broken.
Tonight atKung Fu, as I wasdriving up I saw Tracy in the window watching me pull intothe lot and I was like, "Huh?" I went upstairsand,to give you a visual, there aretwo doors tothe school; one that goes right to the mat and one that goesto the office. You always bypass the matone and go to the officeone so you can say hi to everyone andget your belt on etc. Anyway, so as I waspassingby the firstdoorto the mat, all my training brothersand sistersthrewthe door open and yelled "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" It was really awesome!
We did some bagwork in basics, my knuckles are raw but I kind of like it.In blackbelt we did our usual warmup and then followed up with partnered stretches, which invariably degenerates into "stupid human tricks" and one-upmanship:who can do the highest, most extreme sidekick (Raq, Chris andme,) the deepeststraddle-split (Raq--who can get to the floor--and me,) and the archiest backbend (me.) Tonight we addedanew one, and we ended up all of us upside down against the wall doing back-kicksand trying to touch the wall. It was crazy. Raq and I managed to do it! Then afterwards we did forms,and I droveRaqhome.
EFFING SPACEBAR!!
Tomorrowis my hugely long day. Well I mean, so is Tuesday,but I don't know, Thursday somehow always seems longer.Weird! But hopefully it will be niceand grey and rainy again. ^_^ The sanctuary was really fun last week. Tuesday I worked with the seagullsin the fountain room, and yesterday Bosslady and I did a lot of maintenancework on the crows.The crows werevery put out by this, of course.
The thing about training so late into the evening is that I'm nevertired enough for bed when I should be. >_>
