Midsummer's Night Scream

I was at kung fu for three hours last night. You'd think I'd at least be ten pounds lighter today but when I got on the scale, no change. I know, I know, slow and steady wins the race. But I don't want slow and steady! I want the svelte fairy to hit me with her magical thin wand so I instantly look like Gweneth Paltrow.

*sigh*

Tomorrow I get to hang out with Rebecca and see a Shakespeare play. Midsummer's Night Dream! Whee. I have never seen a performance of it and am psyched. Plus it's being directed by a local public radio celebrity, what fun. A couple of drinks, some tasty food, a show, what a nice way to start the weekend

Stick fighting, farmer's market & gardening

I'm still recovering from a weekend of stick fighting insanity. Lots of fun and only a few bruises. My triceps really hurt, that must be the favored muscle for swinging sticks around. Crafty Dog and Surf Dog were phenomenal. We learned lots of stuff and had fun doing it. I've been sporting my official dog brothers t-shirt around as sleepwear.

Yep. Tonight it's back to the dojo for some kung fu action. The testing list is up for June. I'm not on it. :( Close, but still some more techniques I need to learn and honestly my hook kick is pretty lame. I look like a small dog trying to get one over a fire hydrant.

Work is driving me insane. I'm bouncing around with an adrenaline rush all day. If the phone rings I have to be peeled off the ceiling. At least I'm getting some work done and feeling pretty good about that. I'm told that it's busier than normal up here. Hopefully that means when things slow down it will feel like a vacation.

I went out to sushi lunch at Dragon Fish with my friend Beth today. Afterwards we took a stroll through the Farmer's Market where I bought a bag of mixed greens and Beth bought some flowers, olive loaf and asparagus. Yum. Now I'm motivated to get my garden planted. I've got lots of seeds ready to be planted and a nice little tomato plant my kung fu friend gave me.
