So far, so good. I went to a class on "Beginner Single Tail" that<\/p>\n

actually turned out to be pretty useful for me in a fair number of ways:<\/p>\n

I got to break in a fantastic whip that had been a present for me from Tatsumi<\/p>\n

a long time ago. I have been working with it when I had the chance, but I spent<\/p>\n

about an hour and a half working with it with my hands while the class went on<\/p>\n

and that really loosened it up. Not cracking it mind you, I just got the chance<\/p>\n

to work on the braid a little… turning it and rolling it and so on.<\/p>\n

As an added bonus, the first single tail I had every gotten was resurrected.<\/p>\n

i had been feeling like it was a little too "loose" to continue using<\/p>\n

accurately because one of my stroke had developed to favor a slightly stiffer<\/p>\n

whip. However, I learned a minor variation in stroke that works just fine for<\/p>\n

looser whips… so now I have that one back in my arsenal.<\/p>\n

All in all, well worth the time and trouble!<\/p>\n

I have been watching the Girl2 cam to keep an eye on things at home and<\/p>\n

it is really cool to watch Tatsumi while I am away… I get to get my [[through<\/p>\n

the window]] thing going.<\/p>\n

Anyway, time to go… I have to help Kimiko get ready for her class and<\/p>\n

then get some lunch. In case you were one of the folks who knew my tooth had<\/p>\n

been killing me, I put in some temporary filling material and it feels like it<\/p>\n

is really going to help.<\/p>\n

Gotta run, more later!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
