I tested for my blue belt this afternoon. All was going well until about 30 seconds from the end of my purple form, when I totally fucked up. It's not earth shattering. I more than tested ready. I just won't graduate outstanding, which blows because I wanted to and if I hadn't blown that one bit I would have.

I got told my kicks were a bit low, but I expected that; I have a pulled sartorious and reinjuring it when it's getting near the end of the healing period is on my list of shit NOT to do. If I hadn't had the muscle injury, I might have been able to make up the difference, but I doubt it.

Only three more belts left to go after this one, though of course each belt is progressively harder than the previous. Still, I can see the goal from here. By this time next year, I should be just about ready to test for Black.

For my birthday, I upgraded to a 5 year membership, so I'm committed through at least 2nd degree, which is good.

I weighed in at 168 this afternoon, so three more pounds to a total of 50 lost pounds since I began (I would have been there already, but between my birthday and the 4th, I ate more than usual and put a couple back on, but I'm back on a downward trend again, so all is well).
