So...
It's been an interesting little while. Work has been prety normal though had a 6 day work week just last week. Got my taxes done a day or so before the deadline. Still got to do the e-file signing thing hopefully get that doen tonight if nothing pops up. Just been a little devided between duties around house, cleaning, maintnence etc. My usual dicking around, and finishing building the race car. So far the dicking around has been wining but I'm slowly finding that getting old. So gonna try and get the template for my dashboard fabricated tonight, so i can spend the evenings massaging steel into the right form.
Nothing too exciting happned latley, got a new pocket knife, while trying hard to decide between the one i got and this realy show-y one that is two knifes that clip togetaher and create at hrow thing or just two bad ass fist kinfes. But i went for day to day, though uppon furter inspection of the crafsmanship im' not sure if it'l be lasting me too long, might take it and exchange i dunno.
Last night while browsing through various selections on knifes, and talking with Herefox about the diffrences in fencing and traditonal sword fighting techniques. I got on the idea of Kendo and how I often enjoyed it's form of fighting over the fencing. Even though i've only seen like 2 kendo comps, and many many MANY fencings. So did a web search on it, ya know like oggling only diffrent. And found a verry respected acadamy right in SJ. Hmm I figure if i can get my lazy butt on my bike and do two hours of riding every other day, mixed in with some gravity weight training, so i get to where i don't pass out from running Maybe i'l go and sign up, or atleast give it a shot. I do need something to keep me focused and driven. Racing is good, but there's just not much I can do at night these days. It's ALOT of banging on metal and i don't think the neighbors wana hear that past 8pm. But I dunno. While it is somehting i'd realy like to explore, i'm just not sure if i'l ever get around to actualy even going there. I still haven't got my californai drivers licence cus i been too damn lazy to go get my birth certificate from the county. But to be honest i can't see why i need that since i already have valid ID from another state in the union. But no birth certificate of pasport, and i never had a passport, po folk dun tend to leave the country much. So we'l see. I am still verry curious, espicaly sicne the place has a bit of humor. right on the home page to the Dojo was a line from the faq. "I recently saw (insert movie here, crouching tiger, last samuri etc) How can i learn all those awsome fighting moves and wicked sword play?" Er somethign to that extent to where they go in firm explination that you won't even be sparing until 3-4 months of learning. That had me greatly interested as well since it is the traditoinal forms of teaching this form of martial arts, rather than the SJ fencing acadamys that are all "You'l be fencing your first day! Its great just like that movie hamlet, *insert childish giggle and light saber noise*."
Hmm today something interesting did happen. Uppon stumlbing on somebodys LJ that they posted in the nurple on FM. I find in his friends page some guy called Evilsibe, who seems to have a whole section of the LJ comunity against him. Why i dunno this palce doesn't archive far enough back to read the origons of the hate. But man the one thing i can think of is 'petty'. Though it has been fun reading through the soap opera of so-n-so is a horible person, these people are nuts, blah blah blah. who can say...
So this got long so i'l shut up since, ah well i duno just think i should.
