tylikOy. I have this directory in the back of my head labelled "LJ posts I really ought to write" but it seems to be growing, and I haven't had a lot of time for extra writing. Not that they'll necessarily be particularly useful for anyone else, since many of them are posts I should write because writing is good for me getting certain things straight in my head.
Heh. I just said straight in my head.
Did I mention I was a little tired? Spent the night in Woodinville. Once again slept both somewhat poorly and not enough, but I'm really glad to have had that time. And I saw a studio Ghibli movie I hadn't yet seen ;-) (It still cracks me up how much Ari, like Cuc before her, responds to animated cats. She gets all perky and interested as soon as they're on screen.)
And at least some of the sleeping poorly was due to being sore. First couple of days back in wushu after a longish break, which might be some of it. And I'd had a fever Thursday night, which also might be some of it. (I felt fine by Friday afternoon, but there's feeling fine, and feeling fine in wushu, which is just a completely different metric.) Also had annoying dizzy spells, which might be because of the fever, might possibly because I wasn't training enough over break (but I trained a fair bit, darn it) or might be because of the medication I've been on for my back... I was getting similar dizzy spells when I first started taking it, though I'm generally doing a lot better now. Will mention this to my doctor, but generally I'm hoping that if I keep training I'll adjust. I'm not having dizzy spells doing anything else. The new meds do seem to have the side effect of lowering my blood pressure a bit... which would be more useful if I didn't have fairly low blood pressure to begin with.
Tracey had his first day back in wushu Friday, which by all reports (Shifu's, Lauren's and Tracey's) went quite well. Of course he is now in the advantageous position of having been studying dance for the last year, and knowing most of the older, more advanced students. He's all psyched, and wants to study hard so he can go to China and study with the B team ;-)
