Well that is disappointing, but I know how that goes.
Who is Shukin gonna cuddle with now? I guess Seath will have to make up for the you not being there.
I think I'll have to choose JWong if altered beast is a no show

It's hard for me to post here with out wanting to start it as if I am in confession, 'forgive for it has been ____ since my last forum post."
Since my last post here so much has changed in my life, I made another big move geographically, solo, searching, learning and living.
My training has been spotty at best, life, work and slight injury have gotten in the way.
I have been trying to rehab a bum right knee for the last six months, advice is to "stay off it, rest."
Well how the hell am I supposed to do that when I work on my feet?
Stop working?
Besides, resting has a tendency to throw me into a slight depression, not being able to hit the gym the way I am accustom to, well shucks, might as well just have a beer and think about old times…..
Not any more, been actively recovering this bum leg the past few days, determined to get full range of motion back.
I can now understand to a certain degree what professional athletes must go through when they are forced to be sidelined, it must mess with their minds like no other koan they have be given.
Small smart choices + consistency + time = radical difference.

Way too good! Little man is growing up way too fast and Lisa is about 6 months pregnant with our baby girl! Going to get very hectic soon LOL!!!! Can't wait. Kids are a blessing.
Lifting is going very well. I hope to be over 1800 next time I compete and I don't see that being a problem!
