Random thoughts....

A friend recently pointed out that most of my entries have been aikido-related. Okay, so my attention has really been focused on aikido-- but I'm having too much fun! Scott (manager at work) saw me limp into work on Saturday after our mini-seminar and asked me what was the matter. I grinned and said "I've been playing with the big guys in skirts again"
Now imagine him quirking his brow, a confused look on his face.. "I always knew you were weird" I saw a funny T-shirt on http://www.budowear.com
It's got a big, scary looking blackbelt on the front. The text above it simply says "BLEND!" (for the non-aikidoka, that's blending with the mat. We practice that, alot..)

*chuckles* how appropriate.

Current tally: Bruises/Bumps

Small knot/bruise on my right hand (the blade edge of my tekatana or handsword) most likely due to Sankyo exercise from Tuesday. O_o

Bruise on my knee... only slightly related to aikido. Shikko knee-walking in the grass. Ran over a tree stump. OUCHIE.

Bruised shoulder
(See above post "Rolling just like a brick doesn't" :P)

The knot on my back is no longer the size of a softball... try tangelo sized, but it doesn't hurt anymore.

Sore wrists, though no visible bruises. Maybe I'm toughening up a bit?

I'm really looking forward to class tonight. *yays for Thurdays*

I had to work for a few hours this morning-- Jennifer called out sick, so hurray for not getting a complete day off. I'm noticing a startling trend here. BAH.
On the bright side, I got some issues off my plate this morning. Also, that means I might get to cut OT on Saturday. Coming in later = getting to stay for second class on Saturday. That's definitely worth it :D

Not much else to report other than being broke. BAH I'm soooo glad tomorrow is payday. It'll all go to bills, but it'll be nice to have the illusion of money for a little bit anyway. LOL

ahhh well...
