Defanging the Snake

I trained Johnny today in FMA. We finally used these padded red and blue sticks that I bought last time I was in the Philippines. Material covered:
  • Two angles of attack - forehand and backhand - each with four ranges of motion - overhand, horizontal, underhand, straight - all high, middle, and low.
  • Counter-striking the attacker's weapon hand at largo (long) range, a method named Defanging the Snake.
  • A preview of medio (medium) range.
  • Vertical gunting (scissors).

Mommy bought a new paper shredder machine at Target in the mall. Then she volunteered to treat me at Red Robin. Jazz wasn't working, though. Boo. The Chili chili cheese burger had been taken off the menu, but I had them make it anyway. Plus, garlic parmesan fries and the usual Freckled Lemonade. Afterward at some gelato place, I had mint chocolate gelato and mommy had vanilla gelato. The worker acted like he grew up on too much MTV.

MOMMY: That cone's dirty!
WORKER: It's chocolate[-chipped]!

WORKER: If you don't choose [a flavor] soon, I'll choose one for you!

Later, while walking to Barnes & Noble, I was doing my Robyn Dancing On My Own dance when Robert, the manager from Rubio's, walked in on me. That was sort of embarrassing.
