SORE!!!!!!

I'm sore. Most of my body hurts. I'm pretty sure that this has to do with the fact that I went to 3 taekwondo classes yesterday. During the morning class I did 170,000 lunges followed by sprints, throw in some testing sparring, jumping jacks, and punches - I left there a sweaty mess. So, thanks to Nocturnal Grand Master for the cuts on my knuckles and the pain in my legs! In the evening class I did about a million push-ups. The chest and back muscle pain are courtesy of Mr. D. Finally, the sparring class. State Champ and I have decided that this class was hard last night. We had to fight the boys. Big boys. State Champ and I are not the biggest people around. I'm 5'4", she's right around there with me. We usually spar each other. Not last night. No.....Eaglescout separated us and we were up against 6'1"ish+ guys who had a hundred pounds on us. But we didn't back down. We got right in there and went for it! It was fun. (Hugs to Rob and Mike for not going all out and slaughtering me :) The shin guards worked out great by the way. I seem to have only one bruise on my arm - from blocking a kick. I've named it "Rob" (we name our bruises after the people who have given them to us :) Southern Belle, you only have about a month until you can start naming bruises too!

You crack me up! I'm sporting a really nicely colored bruised named "Mike" today, thanks to the Nocturnal Grand Master himself. Guy Smiley, who has been asked to be renamed Captain Tightpants (why I'm not sure), may have a broken foot or toe, but he refuses to see a doctor. But hey, isn't sparring class fun! I know I love it!

I cannot discuss the bruises or sore muscles that I receive from the Nocturnal Grand Master.

That is all.

Oooo, I like the new nickname for your hubby, Kim. Does he own those really hot running/biking pants??? hehehe

Kim said...

No, but perhaps I should buy him some. Especially since Mr. D said something about adding a tkd class where we would wear t-shirts and shorts. Then that would be a treat for all of us. NOT!

I wasn't supposed to say that he thought up his new nickname himself, but really, who else would come up with something like that?

Leslie said...

Hahaha! I like it. And if "Big Sexy" thought up his own name, it's totally cool that "Cap'n Tightpants" thought up his own too.

And I'm totally shopping for bike shorts for ALL THE TKD men!!

MMMMWWWWWAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!

Great!

Technically, you're not supposed to nickname yourself. But since Big Sexy and Captain Tightpants have come up with such GREAT names that none of us would have ever bestowed upon them.....they can keep 'em!

So it is written, so shall it be.

Captain Tightpants? I'm not sure I even want to venture into that arena! I'm just happy there aren't any bruises named for Eaglescout.

Nocturnal Grandmaster says he has a bunch of other stuff also. Can't wait!

I'm scared that Eaglescout ends his comment with knowledge of some secret stuff NGM has planned. That just doesn't sound right. But, of course, it follows a whole slew of comments about Captain Tightpants' new name. What more can I say? Hope you sore peeps feel better!!!

NGM is ALWAYS up to something.

Well, as long as it has to do with TKD. *le sigh*
