Random yabbering, gerbils running strong

I started back at Muay Thai last night after a 5 week absence following a partial tear of my left calf muscle. In that short (?) time, I feel like I manage to lose all my strength and grace in movement. I was going every day back in September, and to lose all that time, it's like being a beginner again. But Kruu took it slow last night as there were alot of beginners in the class, and that was helpful - better to take it slow and make sure the calf is going to stand up to intense work again. So far so good. I went again today at noon and it feels good to be back at it. With the last couple of days, last week actually, of stress, getting back to beating the crap out of some pads feels kinda nice! Although my right foot and knee are bruised...

Been feeling very disoriented the last 2 weeks or so. I'm not sure what that can be attributed too - probably the incredible abundance of meetings and running around. I've not been in at the NHB more than a full day a week in the last while, spending most of my time at the university and the VMMB. It's been productive, but I feel like my cubicle has become simply a space for my coffee cups which are growing increasingly fuzzy in my absence. This week isn't going to be any better.

Thoughts circulating in my head at this point in time are revolving around men and relationships and how to deal with all of that, all the emotions involved. Dealing with emotions, bad or good, seems to get more complicated as the days and weeks go by.

See, now my brain has gone blank. This is what happens when you watch tv and blog at the same time!! Will now go focus my attention on the mindless tv.
