Yes, that's Latin. It means "Get back up." Life is gonna knock you down. It's knocked me down more times than most. But the number of times it knocks you down doesn't matter. As long as you get back up.

Murderous Thighs
Slept too long last night/this morning, so I ended up being awake through most of dialysis. Much suckage. I kept myself entertained by cycling through 3 different audiobooks. This, in concert with the fact that I had actually taken 2 mg of ativan made my brain a little soupy. Awake, but soupy.
Marissa was napping when I got home and I resolved to nap as well, for however long I could since sleep was out of the question this morning. It ended up being a very short nap, and the wife and I killed the rest of the afternoon/evening watching the cinematic masterpiece, Tremors 2.
Once Marissa went to bed, I had to decide what to do with the rest of my evening, so I decided to do some DDPYoga. Today was a scheduled day off, so I had carte blanche as to what set to do. I looked around a bit and found one called "Low Blow, Easy Flow" which is described as a workout that is supposed to come between Stand Strong and Beginner. Well, since that's exactly where I'm at, I decided to give it a try.
Wow... that was a lot tougher than I thought it was going to be. I feel like my legs have been beaten with a meat tenderizer that size of a bowling ball. So. Many. Squats! About half way through the workout, my quads started talking to one another. It went a little like this.
Left Quad: Hey Buddy?
Right Quad: *grunting* what???
LQ: Open your mind real wide for a minute. What if we killed DDP?
RQ: Wouldn't do any good. This app has enough recorded workouts to last Jack the rest of his life.
LQ: Ok. Well, what if we kill Jack?
RQ: We need him. His heart supplies us.
LQ: Fuck! Well, what can we do?
RQ: SUCK IT UP, CUPCAKE!!!
I made it through. I couldn't do ALL the Catchers, but then, my legs have always been my weak spot. I cannot do it today. Tomorrow, that's another story. Given time I will own this.
