When in doubt, trepan!

Gah. It's very bad that I stumbled upon a huge anime/manga fic recs site this weekend. Have done nothing productive - unless you count updating ficrecs, making lj icons, and watching anime as productive.

Went to karate today. It was actually a change from the usual. There was the usual torture at the beginning, but then it settled into an almost lecture atmosphere as we were told history and shown videos and taught about pressure points. You trained with anyone near you, which was a good change since lower level belts are much less set in their ways... I'd have preferred a bit more demonstration and learning of the points. My art, taijitsu uses pressure points, but I can only think of a handful off the top of my head since we're never specifically taugh them, so it was cool to learn a few more. I hardly have a bruise from it too (which is more than I can say about last Sunday's bruise. It's still large, vivid and painful. Stupid thing...).
