*iz ded*
Did sparring for the first time last night. Not necessarily one of my better decisions, but... it's the first chance I've had to get there, and almost certainly the only time I'll be able to before the next promotion night. So.
Not that much to report. That much activity combined with a cold didn't work so well. Was almost ready to throw up by the end. A certain person-who-needs-to-learn-to-pull-punches hit me in the head hard enough to make me dizzy. Survived anyway. Since it was my first time, I got paired up with mainly kids (some of whom I think... may have been scared of me, bizarre as the thought may be), so in general I didn't get beat up too terribly badly. Was pretty miserable/wiped out last night, and almost told the instructor I wasn't going to be able to go on, despite breaks, when the class mercifully ended, but... I think it's something I could get to enjoy, when I'm not sick to begin with.
Otherwise - emotionally, I'm doing considerably better. Physically... yeah, not so much. To quote a song - "It's gotta get worse, before it gets... worse." *keels over* Mentally? Let's not even go there. I just spelled first "furst" - does that tell you something of my present state?
Also?

Heh heh. Just had to share that, 'cause it's cute. On the news tonight they mentioned that it's been 46 days since the official beginning of winter. Of those days, 41 have been below freezing here. Normally, I'm delighted over that. At the moment? Can. Not. Get. Warm.
*crawls off to bed, with many blankets*
(Oh, and since my main occupations at the moment are Things That Do Not Require Complex Thought... I finally caved, and got some of those dragon eggs everyone else has. Because I like dragons, very much, and these are cute. So... give my eggs some clicks please?)
ETA: One more, just 'cause. :)
