For those concerned…

After the exam, there was quite a bit of concern expressed about the state of my lung. I thought I had coughed up a little blood before my shower, however accurately diagnosed that is was probably from some sort of a mouth cut.

It stopped being noticable about halfway through dinner after a Long Island Iced Tea, and this afternoon on the way back to Illinois I was able to locate a cut in my upper gumline near my left cheekbone where McCabe-san caught me. I suspect this was the source of the blood that I had connected to my sore lung. My ribs/lung still hurts, but no other adverse effects have been noticed. So stop worrying, people. If I were really hurt I’d either fall over or go to the hospital.

I’m not insane, I just like free sparring!! (For the record, today I feel like I got hit by a freight train. His name was Brewer-san.) I put some tape on it, and I’m fine.
