the art of hurting



shinsbruised.jpg

This is how my shins and feet look after a Muay Thai workout.

But it’s working. It’s great exercise. Plus it’s getting easier. When I started a month ago, I bruised way more than this. I dunno. I ain’t gonna be able to handle this when I’m forty so I may as well do it now.

Anyhow, my legs apparently draw from my belly fat to rebuild the damaged bones. A few more weeks of this and I’ll finally be pretty…as long as I keep wearing trousers.

On the other end of the martial arts spectrum, check out these idiots spraying each other with their Chi.

I thought this was a joke at first, but then I googled it. It’s not a joke. It’s real.

I’m not talking about their supernatural abilities - that’s all bullshit, but the “Yellow Bamboo” group itself is actually a real organization, and not some sketch comedy group playing a very strange practical joke on people who have a firm grasp of reality.

Unfortunately the nature of my craft prevents me from talking absolute shit about directors on my blog, but yeah…

The shins look worse than they feel. Actually what hurts the most are my toes. They’re not used to getting slapped against things.
