One-arm vs. one-arm 27 Aug 2013 | 07:27 pm
Ugh, the worst — although we have two conference rooms at work, both of which are large enough, they’ve decided instead to start having their Skype meetings in the main office space, right in front of...
Ugh, stupid shoulder 24 Aug 2013 | 04:19 am
My shoulder/neck is still hurting a LOT. I’ve even been taking ibuprofen. Lots of ice, too, as that seems to help more than heat. Also Tiger Balm, of course. But I thought I should be smart and sit ou...
Zeroth energy, squared 22 Aug 2013 | 06:36 pm
Not cool, man, not cool. Despite purposely eating as many sweet potatoes as possible, as well as other good food, and taking an Epsom salt bath Tuesday night, my energy tank was still completely empty...
Zeroth energy 20 Aug 2013 | 06:55 pm
I dunno, it’s like I got zapped by an anti-energy ray. Absolutely nothing. Whew. Likely didn’t eat/sleep well enough over the weekend, and it caught up with me in class last night. Warmup. Jogging an...

Mansplained. Rolling to warmup. Again hitting a few things that I meant to do (and that weren’t half bad). Even some good pressure. Also ascertained that one of the white belts is indeed no longer a ...
She’s got legs… 15 Aug 2013 | 06:42 pm
…and she knows how to use them. (Triangle, armbar, omoplata…) That song came on during rolling last night, and that was what went through my head. Hey, summer, where did you go? Please to come back ...
Non-BJJ help needed 14 Aug 2013 | 07:16 pm
Okay, non-BJJ help needed: how to motivate myself to finish this project at work. I have 13,000 individual documents that I have to upload (and fix the title & date when the OCR invariably screws it ...
Jiu-jitsu therapy sessions 13 Aug 2013 | 07:33 pm
Sometimes, life is stressful and crappy. Sometimes, jiu-jitsu provides the exact right therapy for it. Last night was one of those nights. Short warmup, then partnered up for back mount escapes. Firs...
I think I finally learned how to do a double-leg 11 Aug 2013 | 12:28 am
Thursday night, the muscle just below my right shoulder blade started hurting/aching. So I put a heating pad on it, then Tiger Balm, and finally took an Epsom salt bath. Woke up in the morning, and di...
…and sometimes, you’re the pancake. 8 Aug 2013 | 07:11 pm
Nails at least survive the first blow. Meh. So confused yesterday (and still today) as to what day it actually is. Brain can’t figure it out. Rolling to warmup. And… nothing. Steam. Rolled. Sad thin...
