Ack! So Hot!

[toosuto]

I almost passed out right in the middle of my practice belt test. I test in 4 weeks. And it should be fine, I actually have to know less than I did when I test for 6th kyu in Aberdeen (which makes sense since I am testing for 7th kyu) and there isn't even a knowledge section (which I suck at, that is what the internets is for: knowing things). Came home, ate and then inked my first panel of illustration work (which my contract is currently in limbo for, ug) then loaded the trailer, the bikes and everyone into the car in the later afternoon (the hottest part of a hot day) to go for a ride. Only to discover that my hitch is for quick release wheels. A quick trip to REI found friend Josh working who measured my nut and reamed a new hole in my hitch (dirty!) a short drive later and we all took a leisurely 2 mile or so ride: it was nice! Chips and cheesey rice for dinner with corn and fresh brewed peppermint sun tea (it makes my tongue all tingly). We'll probably finish the day with Life On Mars and please American Friends if you are interested in the story of cop who is struck by a car and wakes up in 1974 but can still here the hospital room where he lies in a coma: do not wait for the crappy american version (although it will have Colm Meany) watch the original however you can manage it.

Anyway: Win!

Oh I almost forgot: I made a 30 second spot for the dojo to air at the summer outdoor movie night at the local cheap-o movie house. Apparently it is much loved in the Aikido World Alliance now so I share it here with you:
