Yesterday finally I was able to join up my Wing Chun friends and visited a training
in the city nearby, where our "grandmaster" is teaching. They picked me up from the
station with the "kung fu bus", and went to the training. The session was an hour and
a half long and I felt dead at the end. Very intense warmup then stretches, then sparring
with several opponents, then techniques, line ups, etc. Literally at the end it was even
difficult to take a breath.
As we agreed we popped in to a Chinese noodle bar and had a dinner after the training, which
was really needed, as the food was great and felt awesome after a great training. This
was a true authentic Chinese night. By the time I got back home to Mrs. Smith it was
already 22:10, so after watching House MD, and an episode from the Office (US), I
went to sleep. Of course in the morning I felt like shit again, my body is aching, I feel
like I broke my left index finger (during sparring?) and I am extremely tired. Today is
police training so I am expected to get home around 21:30 again, so no joy here.
Finally tomorrow is Friday where I did not schedule anything for myself other than laying
around and watching telly.
I can see the weekend is gonna disappear quickly because on Sunday I will need to do a couple
hours of policing to start bringing up my hours this month. I am getting too busy
nowadays and all I can wish for is a couple hours relaxing sleep....
