Sporting Slackness

annuinWe've slacked off on the sports lately, not all due to our own fault, but I still feel bad about it.
One Friday yoga session we missed because we were playing UT2K4 and hadn't noticed the time. We did go to karate on Monday though. Then that Wednesday's karate lesson was forfeited because of our INS trip which had us up at 5am and completely toasted by the time we were home, and we were in bed by 6-7pm for a nap. That Friday's yoga class got canned because I had rough day at INS again and got home really late. Monday's karate class we skipped because PreZ was sick, Wednesday we piked because I didn't feel too well, and Friday's yoga class wasn't being held because there was a special teacher up from Florida for a weekend, and we didn't feel like paying $35/each for that class. This Monday's karate class we decided against, PreZ is still getting over the vestiges of his cold and he was working from home. However we did go to yoga that evening instead, so that defrayed some slackness.
So today is our first karate class in like 2 weeks, and I'm really looking forward to it. Though not to the inevitable soreness and such that will arise the next day. I've really grown to enjoy the karate classes, even though I generally, probably, suck at it a fair bit, and can be exceptionally sore the day(s) after sometimes. Not that I don't enjoy the Bikram yoga, but I guess I like the fact that karate is more variable. You get pretty much the same warm up, but what happens in the last part of class usually varies... sometimes it's sparring, sometimes it's kata, sometimes it's training kick/punch/block sequences, sometimes it's bag training, I like that, it keeps my Gemini mind entertained more.
