The worst part of getting back onto running (or anything for that matter) after an involuntary break is the fact that you know where you were and you know how long it's going to take to get back to where you were before you can start making progress again.

whooo!!

I got my third stripe tonight at training!! Not sure I deserve it, but I’m going to try my hardest to.

I’ve been working on my top game since all I ever did before was play closed guard. It’s getting really really fun now that I am learning how to utilize side control/north-south/mount.

I get to train tonight!!! YES!! My elbow was feeling just fine Monday but I decided to take a couple more days off just to be safe. It’s about time I got back on the mat.

I got tendonitis from a shoulder lock at competition Saturday. Now I can’t train this week and probably part of next week too...I may explode.

Went to my first BJJ Competition today. I got STOMPED in all three matches. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed, but I did have fun in two of the three rounds.

Our school had a mock tournament tonight to get ready for next weekend. I won my first match by submission (loop choke). The second match the guy tapped about 5 seconds after time so I lost 7-0. Had an absolute blast though.

Only problem is now I’m too wired for sleep. I’m completely mentally and physically awake. Work is in5 hours......oops. time for Borderlands!

tonight is the first time in my jiu jitsu journey that I can honestly say I’m leaving class tonight less happy than when I got there. ugh. Nothing that anyone in class did, I just have to work on my head game.
