Slow ride...

You'll notice there hasn't been an update lately. Well, I haven't been lately. You can blame my job for that. I had some big league coming to my store (head of the games department) and I needed to be ready for the visit. Good news is, it went well. Bad news is, he mentioned the CEO will be visiting our store soon. So much for going back to the daily grind.

So work is stressful. On the flip side, Bridgette's job is far more stressful; which is taking its toll on us both. Things will get better, but for now nights are rough. She's not sleeping, so I'm not sleeping. She doesn't feel well, so I don't feel well. Neither of us slept last night, so we both called in to work. After we went up there and got things set up for a sub, we came home, and slept until 2. It was nice and we needed it.

Went to practice, but my head isn't where it needs to be. Luckily, today was filled with good news. For one, we have dates for some future shows. Sept. 30th in San Angelo, during which time I'll be in Abilene; and Nov. 10th in Stanton. Also January 19th for a fundraiser for Hood Jr. High, and Feb. 9th at the Horseshoe Arena. These dates may be a day or two off but I believe they are correct. As always, us trainees are under constant evaluation as to whether we will be on the card or not.

Secondly, Tony, who I haven't seen in the ring since I very first started due to his own job situation, came in to help us on weight lifting. He took the time to show us proper technique and find out our maxes. Building and shaping my body is probably one of the largest reasons I started this in the first place, so that was exciting.

I'll just have to walk it off and come back full force on Thursday. As you've heard: the party must go on.

Hahaha...ahhh...ow.

Today started with a more intense version of the regular routine. This was to help build us up for the Charlie Haas seminar, where he is to whip our asses. I made it through, but it was certainly a call to arms for us to step it up.

More of the same, really. Not much to document.

Haas of Pain

Not much to speak of on today's training, but next month Charlie Haas is coming to do a seminar for us; and he'll also be joining us to watch Tommy Chong do standup the night before. Awesome shit! If you don't know who that is, get on Wikipedia and do your research.

DDT-Pain

See what I did there?

Today was spent doing more basics. Hip tosses, clotheslines, shoulder blocks, suplexes, front suplexes (those kinda suck,) DDTs, and bulldogs. The reason for the title is because when one of the new guys gave me one, he didn't let go and drove my head down pretty hard. I was fine after a minute, but I could feel it resonate down my neck at first. I'm good now.

No post from Tuesday or Thursday. Last week was pure chaos. Bridgette started a new job, two of my bosses made a visit to my location; just all kinds of things happening at once. Back to the normal grind now; no excuses to miss practice.

We may be doing a show in San Angelo the last weekend of this month but unfortunately I won't make that. I'll be in Abilene attending a WWE house show.
