What is this Jiu Jitsu you speak of?

Seriously! I'm started to forget what the gym looks like. Okay, well its really not THAT bad but it sure feels like it lately. Its amazing how life can sneak right up behind you right when you're getting a good grove and then smack in in the back of the head with a STRONG dose of reality. I recently began my language course at DLI (26 weeks of Italian). I know, I know...dude you're freaking out over Italian!?! Thats like spaghetti, pasta, vino, mozzarella right? Not quite. In addition to DLI, I thought it would be a smart idea to start another (yes, I said another...as in one more time) master's degree in December 2009. So, not only do I have 100 vocab words a night to memorize, I also have research to do for two master's classes. Plus, the kids have lessons and life's, Chelle is in class every night of the week this month from 6pm - 10pm and I do have to sleep once in awhile. So anyway....where was I?

Oh yeah, jiu jitsu! Didn't make it to the mat on Wednesday because it was the second day of class and we had a retarded amount of homework. Tonight class is a no go again because Chelle has class (no jokes here...yes, I know I don't have any class - HA!) and Kaelyn is going to a school dance with friends so my "built in" babysitter is out for the evening. Why do teenagers insist on having lives!?!

The positive side is, I guess, that I have been able to consistently get up at 5:20am every day and get my first two workouts in. At least I won't be a big 'ol fatty when I eventually do get back to the mat on Monday....I just won't know how to roll :) So, here's to hoping the coming weeks calm down and I can regain some of my sanity on the mat!
