There is another superhero in distress!

My biggest 'nemesis' Pat is hurt and I wish I could do something to help her! But knees are the kryptonite of judo players! Find me a judo player with good knees and I will show you a liar. She is supposed to withdraw from the nationals as am I, but neither of us would do anything of the sort! BUT, we are very excited for June when we can eat what we want and maybe actually rest for a day or two. That rest for me will only be a week long as I will start on my quest to cut 11 kgs before next tournament season. The people in my category are relatively large compared to my 5'2 frame, so I am going ot try my hand at being lighter. We shall see how that one goes!
So, today's training... not much, I feel like crap. I did get a chance to do some judo at my second club and Sensei gave me a green belt to throw around and practice whatever I wanted on him, and told him to do what I ask! I like when I get to do what I want. Figured out a pretty cool uchimata from my favourite left-handed grip.
As well, now that I am FINALLY a brown belt, this sensei asked me to lead part of the class, which is always fun, I love teaching the kiddies, they really are adorable!!
So, I am going to go watch Survivor now and get some rest as this superhero is still sick. I urge all other superheros out there to will Pat's knee better and for my cold that I get from children sneezing on my face and coughing into my mouth when I am talking to them to go away!!!
And on that note, I wish for all of you out there, ALL IPPONS!

I like the whole brown belt idea. It's like,"yah this belt used to be white, but then I had an accident."
