Chick kicked me in the face. Was I a gentleman about it? Well ...

Did my 19th day of upperbody pull muscles and 17th day of abs at the gym. Yay. Getting close. After every 21 days of a regiment, I switch to a new regiment (because supposedly it takes 21 days to make a habit, but you don't want your body becoming used to your workouts or else they will no longer have much effect).

Capoeria class: Andres, Mexican Jesse, Carlito, Marko, Slim, Louis, Diana, and the little kids. No new moves. We "big kids" were put in our own roda (circle) where we had to drill countering a martelo (roundhouse) with either a rasteira (sweep) or takedown.

Then we played. Highlight: Despite seeing Diana's kick coming, I had a deer-in-the-headlights moment where I ended up taking her kick to my face. Then I became bi-polar as I let it slide at first, but when I saw an opening I killed her with 3 consecutive kicks before her brother Louis had to bail her out.

I visited Tiwat still on house arrest. Had some 90s nostalgia as we watched Disney's TaleSpin.

TIWAT: (Referring to Diana kicking me in the face) Was she at least cute?
RYAN: She's underage.
TIWAT: OK, that emasculating.
RYAN: But then I kicked her ass.
TIWAT: Typical Ryan.
