Jan. 17th, 2007 10:35 pmI was starting to wonder if I was getting sick again. Woke up this morning with a sore throat, and feeling vaguely achey and out of sorts.
But after a while in class this evening, I'm thinking it was just a few too many breakfalls yesterday. Weird -- rolls felt good, but even the intentional shock of the breakfalls felt a little weird. I think -- hope anyway -- that it's all to the best. Got stuff moving again that hadn't been, enough. Drank a whole lot of water during class today.
But despite the general creakiness, it was a good class. By the end I felt sore, but in the good hard workout sort of way. Realized that while I'd kept up with most of my forms, I'd badly neglected Chen Dao -- and oh, but that's a fun one. Got to clear up a couple of Laojia Yilu questions that had come up over break, too. And now that I have rotation working again in my left hip (maybe, finally the dratted thing is getting over the trouble that started in the 2003 accident) I get to properly learn the back sweep that I couldn't do last quarter because my hip wouldn't move.
Okay, my backsweeps have been pathetic for a while, but while I still sucked at the end of the class, my suckage was substantially reduced. There is hope for me yet.
