I don&#8217;t know if that&#8217;s good or not.<\/p>\n<p>At training&#8230;it was awesome.  <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s just&#8230;I&#8217;m in a lot of pain right now.  I wanted to go to evening training so bad, but couldn&#8217;t move. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n<p>I finished watching Bedknobs and Broomsticks. It was the re-released 1996 version, and they actually ADDED scenes!  That&#8217;s why I hadn&#8217;t seen some stuff, not because they were cut from the TV version, but because they hadn&#8217;t been in it in the first place~!  New dance scenes, songs, etc! So cool.<\/p>\n<p>I woke up feeling a little better, thank GOODness. ;o;  A little, meaning I can move my neck again, slightly.<br \/>\nTime to go to work.  Kids outservice, and then meeting in Tokyo.  I&#8217;m annoyed at my schedule.  I didn&#8217;t get my prep periods. -__-;;; But I&#8217;ve been looking forward to the meeting.  Hopefully my headache won&#8217;t be too bad, and I&#8217;ll be able to look to the left, after warming up, jumping around with my kids class all morning.<\/p>\n<p>I love these guys. XD  Too bad more people weren&#8217;t there.  I really really appreciate them going hard with me.  So many Japanese men won&#8217;t.  As I was telling a friend yesterday, I understand that it&#8217;s hard for a guy to train with a female most of the time.
