So, I definitely meant to post something yesterday. It didn't happen. When I got up, I didn't have anything to say. Later, when I did, I fell asleep. Between school and martial arts, I was exhausted.
I'm glad I managed to make it to iaido yesterday. Swinging my sword about was exactly what I needed. It's been a tough week. I learned a former member of my high school drama club, who became a sweet and beautiful woman, died suddenly due to a suspected Fentanyl overdose. And my s.o. and I decided to take a break for now. We're both too busy to be there for each other at this time, so despite how we feel about each other, we're just doing the friend thing for now. All of that sucks.
It looks like everything is in order for the seminar this weekend. I'm looking forward to training and hanging with iaido folks. I'm happy the weather is getting a little more seasonal. That'll make training better. Some big things have happened in the iai world in Canada as one of our main sensei has decided to retire. This has meant changes to the grading panel and I don't know what else yet, but it's exciting. I need to decide if I'm going to challenge nidan rank again. If I do, I know I won't do the seminar before it. It made me extra nervous and I want to go in feeling confident.
Class was tiring but also really fun yesterday. We grouped up as if in a writers room and came up with TV show ideas for our network. Once we found the idea the upper management liked, we had a ball coming up with storylines. I don't know if we'll be continuing that, but we wanted to actually write the show after. It was awkward at first trying to feel out the new group members, but it wasn't too long before we found a rhythym and got things going.
I have a meeting before school today, but the person I'm meeting seems to be running late...
Off to start my day.
Guid cheerio the nou,
