keeping up

I did do some reading the other day for research purposes, that and I watched "Stranger than Fiction" so I didn't actually get a chance to write, but I was thinking about it.

So, tonight after Kendo, I wrote some more.  Again, check out the Japanese Story link above.  I had a great practice and it inspired me to write something that involved some of it.  I'd love to spend more time on it, but lets just say, the new dojo space is awesome, it's huge, it's fuckin DIRTY - we cleaned it, and it's a LOT closer than before.  Plus the really awesome thing was that rather than 5-8 people, we had 16 there tonight.  It's a lot easier for the Rutgers Kendo people to get there so most of them were there.

The warm up alone was crazy.  Kendo dojo's have a practice that the first training day of the new year, they do that number of  Men strikes (men is head).  She said she didn't think that we should do that so we ended up doing something else that amounted to about 500 strikes.  and this is just the warm up.  Oye. No wonder I can't write.

  1. Hey, you’re still miles ahead of me. I’m still thinking about writing but not actually writing. But now that I feel somewhat caught up on things, I may be able to get started.

    I’ll be back to check out your story.

  3. Do that many head strikes? Are you crazy, you could hurt yourself. Brain damage is not a pretty thing. It’s good that your drive is closer. Makes the incentive to workout easier…

  4. Yeah, well I learned how to receive one of the combinations and I reached when I shouldn’t have and got NAILED in the side of my head. Woo, saw stars for a minute.

  5. Like I said – you’re totally my idol. :)
