Doldrums and Tear-er

    Hot, cold, excited, indifferent, energetic, lethargic, up and down. That is me lately with just about everything I am doing. I am finding a lack of spring in my step, waiting for something. I know May is going to be a crazy busy month with the Tiger challenge, giving blood, a fitness test, possible demo, spring cleaning/outdoor projects, beginning of football season, and so on, I just wish I could spread some of it to this month. But alas, I can't, so I wait. And waiting annoys me to no end. And all these "breaks" in April make it worse because there is no class, it's like I hold my breath for the month waiting for it to end, not being able to exhale till May rolls around. As Charlie Brown would say "Good Grief!".


   Dadao sword. Boy I love this sword. It just feels right. It is a blunt smashy smashy choppy choppy weapon of pain, no flair, nothing subtle about it. Just like me. Out of the previous three weapons I have tried in the IHC (Chucks, Tonfas, Axes), this is my favorite. It is a beast, it is relentless, if I make a mistake it tells me - painfully. This is the weapon I need to advance my Kung Fu, it stirs me mentally every time I use it. I feel my lines, blade positioning, depth of stance, POWER, so much more with this sword than I thought I would. I have even named it - Tear-er (like terror but more painful).
