STILL waiting. The case is still in arbitration with PayPal, the seller has faxed PayPal three seperate times. I don’t know what he can possibly be attempting to provide, however I expect this thing to be resolved one way or another any day now. It will likely take another week or two, but I can […]

I was able to put back 15 Sochin tonight before class… I had arrived around 5:55 pm in order to kickstart myself into working out since I was having motivation problems. Kata felt pretty good tonight, I did quite a few of them as “walk in the park” kata, but the ones that I put […]

Since posted his update, I realized that I have been lax about reporting my progress on my annual goals. The Sochin goal marches onward, I am at 1005 of 2000, or 50.25%. I’m feeling pretty good about my progress here, but it will be hard work getting the other half this year. I remember at […]

Dad and I decided to work on the fence some more this weekend. We had decided to rig up a fix to the double swing gates and build the gate for the front of the lot. On Day Six, we set out to build the front gate and stretch the remaining piece of fencing. Stretching […]

Teddy was on a forced “no food and water” order from the vet until 4 pm today, when he got 1/3 of a can of bland science diet prescription dog food. So far, things have progressed well. He has not been sick today, but he has been sad at the lack of food. Hopefully good […]

Today was a forced gasshuku, due to the summer cleaning closure of the Mapleton dojo. We decided to go sideways across the lot this time, making use of the thirty degree incline hill. It took about 50 technique to get to the base of the hill, and another 20 to go up the hill. We […]

Take a gander at this snippet from Conan O’Brien… it appears that Stephen Colbert is and was a card-carrying D&D SuperNerd, he even cites going to GenCon as well as some stuff to give him Tolkien street cred. Fast forwarding to 5:30 will get you closer to the nerd-core.

After I got home with Teddy this afternoon, I realized that my late night of taking care of him was catching up with me fast. I decided to take a nap. Only a few hours, I said. Apparently, a few hours is five. I feel considerably better now… its a wonder I got anything productive […]

Our dog is very sick, as my lovely wife so kindly noted. The vet did lots of Expensive Things to him, including two x-rays and complete bloodwork. Since I didn’t have anything better to do, I waited around while they did all of these things to my dog. The bloodwork came back with an elevated […]

Before class, I put down 12 Sochin, bringing my total to within striking distance of the halfway point. w00t! The first class was a very basic class led by Sensei Brewer. We did punching, front kick broken down into pieces, and finished things off with a few partner drills. I got across from and we […]
