red hair and black leather, my favorite color scheme

What's new with us?  Well, there was a lot fo rehearsal packed into a *very* short time, promptly followed by a weekend long pirate festival.  It went very well, actually.  Considering that it was only the third time we (the group of crazies who act/sing/fight) have done this festival we did well.  Lots of compliments from people who weren't dressed funny (important), from the organizer (very important), and from a few hardcore reenactors who randomly showed up (niiice).  Links to pice will be posted once I have the links in question.

Also in the news, I did moer damage to my shoulder than had thought ...it's now 2 weeks without a visit to the gym and I think I'm having withdrawal symptoms ...and since it's not improving, I'll be skipping MMA this week too.  Damnit!!

However, this weekend is the Rochester Irish Festival.  We (Kate and I) will be dancing as members of the Young School of Irish Dance on Sunday 9/13.  Interestingly enough, *last* Sunday was our 6th Anniversary ...which we spent acting like pirates.  We'll be going out for a nice dinner this weekend to make up for that!  At any rate, anybody who wants to come see us (and the rest of the adult dancers in the school) put on a bit of a show, we're on stage at 2pm on Sunday.

Yes, shoulder damage. We're ('we' being my physical therapist) pretty sure that I strained my left shoulder: "It might be the deltiod, or it could be but probably isn't the rotator cuff" So I'm on an enforced leave of absence from MMA and weight lifting until next week. Hey, it's been almost 3 weeks and the inactivity hasn't made me insane yet!

how/when did you do this???

about 3 weeks ago. I was on my base, attempting to shoulder roll my opponet off me, and half way through the roll I got caught in a crucifix (http://www.dogsofwar.net/monte/html/crucifix.htm). Anybody else probably would've tapped out at that point, but I tried to fight it ...and I lost [wry grin].
So runs my punishemnt for stubbornness!

Thanks! Like I said, we celebrated by dressing funny, talking like pirates and dueling. (Just like real life!)
