kittydesadeSo, Saturday I had a capoeira class plus a demonstration at a community event, both of which went reasonably well, plus a lot of walking around for Pokemon and raiding with people, the first raid group I'd ever done in person (as opposed to DragonCon where we might have been on different damn floors for all I could tell). Successful, I might add! I am now the proud owner of a MewTwo. But in order to prepare for this day of strenuous physical activity did I stretch? Get a good night's sleep? Eat a healthy dinner? Did I, bollocks.
No, I fell down the stairs.
I'm fine, I got banged up and bruised and pulled some shoulder muscles trying to grab the railing and smacked my ass on the stairs several times, which still hurts without even the good time prior. But I'm fine. But I was in way more pain than I wanted to start out Saturday in. Fortunately Groot took pity on me and we did a lesson with mostly gentle stretching and a lot of music and singing instead. Music and singing being a part of capoeira I am thankful for when I have days like, you know, I just fell down the stairs yesterday and now I hurt all over.
Fortunately work these days is mostly standing things, which means I don't have to keep sitting on my bruised ass. And I managed to get back in the groove of writing actual text prose today, not just writing about writing, which I was somewhat worried about. Three weeks after DragonCon, though, that's not bad. And it was in Pilot! Not some random new thing! Always a bonus. I'm churning along in edits for Lifestyle, keeping the bullet journal, keeping up with a degree of language study. I might yet manage to achieve the balance I had, oh, a couple years or so ago? Two three years? I think just two now, but it feels so goddamn long.
