More cool stuff from other dairies [sic]. From "Marsist:" That's such a great thought! Ok, I'm coming "out of the Mental Illness Close" too. Yeah, I know, no big surprise. These days, it's almost chic to be taking anti-depressants. Today's the worst kind of day. For no apparent reason, I feel really, really crappy. I had such a good day yesterday too! The fact that I don't know why I feel crappy, just makes me feel more crappy. Depression is just full of ugly feed back loops like this. Ok, the best medicine, for me anyway, is to hang out with my friends. So, I'm going to drag myself out to practice tonight. Though, that'll make me feel frustrated because I can't put on armor! Well, better frustrated than depressed. Frustration is a spur to action. Depression is a mailed fist around the throat of action. Stuff from tonight's practice: Thanks to Lady Susanna for helping me run a test to figure out exactly how far woefully pathetic my conditioning is. The bad new was that my attack skills were horrible! [Don't tell Sooze this she might misunderstand] I couldn't hit her nearly as often as I thought I should. Also, I did somethig twice that I never do when I'm in shape. I whiffed twice. I don't whiff! And for good reason, whiffing hurts! Having short strong arms ameliorates the damage but that's about the only advantage to have short arms. The good news is that I was able to move better than I expected. The bad news is that I'm in pathetically bad shape. The good news is that I didn't have a heart attack or something worse. Next step is to open the armor bag and assess the work that needs doing. |
