Today I ran 22m05s in high wind and rush hour traffic. Then:
50 pushups

Sick again
On Monday I was sick again. I worked for 2 hours then went home and slept the rest of the day.
Tonight's workout was excellent. My stomach and my head hurt all day, until I had a sandwich and glass of water around 5. I'm really hoping I've kicked this sickness.

Last Technique
Intercepting the Ram is mine, along with 127 of it's closest friends. I own all of the Kenpo techniques.
To complete the set, however, I need 8 extensions (of 32 techniques with extensions).

Sick and Tired
On Wednesday I sparred with some under-rank students. This is excellent experience for the students and I enjoyed doing it. Unfortunately I injured my left leg during one of the bouts. This put a stop to my jogging for a couple of days.
On Saturday I woke up sick. I won't get into detail however it was not until 3pm that I could sip flat ginger ail without my body rejecting it soon after.
Today was my first sick day ever. I've had more applesauce than I ever want to have over the course of 3 days ever again. Tomorrow I'm going to try to visit my lady before she goes to London for vacation. I just finished some plain pasta and milk. I think I can do it. Wish me luck.

3 miles in 21m28s, jog
Another minute off the 3 mile jog. Yesterday I powered through the second half, today through the first half. Then a regular set of pushups, crunches, weights, and squats.
Also, I learned one of my missing techniques last night. I even captured it on video.
All I have left is Intercepting the Ram and Squatting Sacrifice. I'll ask for one tonight.

Birthday wishes
My birthday is coming up, and here's my wishlist:
(Please note, many of these items are way too expensive)
2 20lb dumbbells.
a pullup bar.
Skate gloves.
Samba longboard from Lush Longboards.
2 Holey trucks, 2 angled spacers, 2 sets of hardware, 4 hard (slide) wheels like these: Lush Cannonball Wheels, size 60mm. Everything but the deck.
A MacBook. Black or White.
Red iPod Nano. (I am buying this for myself though I do not have a computer to use it with, yet)
4 performance summer tires. 4 steel rims for winter tires. (eventually, 4 performance winter tires) Size: 195/50-16
Short throw shifter (and installation)
a jack handle.
1 White heavyweight uniform top, and a full set of Kenpo patches.
Quality bag gloves.
Snowboard boots, coat, gloves. (eventually: snowboard, bindings)
Roof rack.
Plane tickets to visit my family in Oregon.
Again. This is a list of wishes: things I actually wish to buy for myself. However, it does give you a good idea of the things I'm interested in right now.

3 miles
This morning, before my karate class, I ran 3 miles in 24 minutes.
60 pushups
60 crunches (legs out 12" off the floor)
Arm/shoulder workout with weights.
Then I discovered how dehydrated I was, and had water and Gatorade.
Also, I have been writing out my techniques. I am only missing 3 of 128:
Squatting Sacrifice, Detour from Doom, Intercepting the Ram.
I am also missing 8 extensions.
