psych(ot)ic abilities
Aug. 12th, 2007 04:53 pmToday I managed to break my body cord in a way that two of my fencing buddies had never seen before :P One of them offered to repair it, for which I am grateful.
Also managed to break the faucet-thingy on the water cooler as well - it takes real talent to do this :P
I can't figure it - I work all day Thursday and then go to club, and I'm more "on the ball" than when I go fence first thing after breakfast. One would think I'd be fresher in the morning but today (like other Sundays) I was plagued by tiredness and stupid :/
I still managed to participate in the mock tournament, including 2 15-touch direct eliminations, and had a lesson - I feel like I've been hit by a truck!
The lesson was more distance work and choosing the opportune time to attack - when my opponent is preparing but isn't quite there is an ideal moment but very hard to identify outside of practice drills, so again - time and experience will win the day, but I'm impatient for it to hurry up already.
I was going to sew a bit more but suspect I'll mess up if I try - instead I'm going to read until it's time to make/do/something dinner.
