sooo close

Leaving for Boston in 11 days... !  I can't wait.  In between I'm still finishing cleaning up my drum kit, tuning all the new heads (they settle over time and warp back out of tune, see...) and working out on my new practice pad.  I've been doing hand drills in front of my computer with headphones on listening to Jojo Mayer lecture on technique.  My fingers are all sore.  My whole body is sore, actually.  I've been working out officially for about three weeks now, 2-3 hours a day at Paul's gym doing Gung Fu and Tai Ji.  It's a big change from just stretching and working and eating and living.

My knife is still getting worked on, I guess.  I had no idea it would take so long.  Next time this happens (cross my fingers that it doesn't) I'll just try and fix it myself and pay the hundred bucks for a new knife if I mess up.  There's a new sushi chef at work but he's an old hand from Tomo so he mostly knows what's up.  The guy wants to be a cop...crazy...

I have to fix my bike tomorrow, the damn brakes are all wonky and they're grabbing the tires all the time.  Should just take a hex wrench and some elbow grease.  I just got off work and I'm dead tired, Hannah's home now so I guess I'll call it a night.
