I was tired all day, mentally and physically. Not sure what was going on, but I woke up feeling dehydrated and hung over. And no, I didn’t tie one on last night. 
I didn’t have any gas all night, was weak and lethargic… and after 20 minutes of sparring felt nauseous. So, technically, I was really going through the motions, but I happy I did. I tapped a lot tonight and because I was so tired and blah, I figured I’d start from the worst possible position, so I just went straight to turtle with every white belt I sparred with. I figured that starting from a bad position would force me to get moving. Ultimately, it just forced me to work to not get choked!
Feeling better now, though, and looking forward to watching a little TV with my kids. I’ll be back at class on Friday.
Oh, come hell or high water, I’m going to dye a couple of gis this weekend. I’m going to dye one gi black, and another one purple. I’ll post pictures when I do.
You’re so much better about dyeing things promptly than I am!
LOL… not really. I’ve had these for too long. I need to get them back to their owners!
Any day on the mats is a great day. You could have stayed home and sat on the couch but you chose to train, that is mental toughness that you showed. When the s@&%*t hits the fan in life and we are called on in this often violent world to show that bjj is not just a sport but something that can save our lives we may at that moment not be rested, well fed, or hydrated yet must meet the challenge. Your training in that state readies you for that brother.
Looking forward to that, a fearsome comeback!
