Thoughts While Sparring For the First Time --Hey. HEY! --Oh yeah? Oh yeah? --I can take that. No problem. Come at me again. --She's street fighting. This isn't pretty. --I WANT to LAND a solid RIGHT.

I'm hitting this woman's daughter. --Actually, I don't feel bad at all. --She's tired. She's MINE. Thoughts Later In the Night After Sparring For the First Time --My jaw hurts. --Holy Sh*t I was boxing. --Why isn't this tylenol kicking in? --Why does my head still hurt? --What is this bruise on my chest? --Holy Sh*t I'm 40 and I was BOXING. --What did any of that training have to do with someone standing there trying to hit me? --Must learn more defense before I do that again. --Will you do this again? --Yeah, sure; a little more defense first, though. --But my head. It hurts. Ow

Oh, and while you're at it, could you ask Uncle Greg if he's seen Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog?
I don't know how I'll get to sleep now--I just found out I won a writing contest! http://editorialass.blogspot.com/2009/12/mentors-muses-monsters-contest-results.html
Was this a special event, or is this a bookstore I need to see?
Nope--they're snowtroopers. Stormtroopers have different gear.
