If it hurts, you're doing it right.

My body has that tired, pleasant ache to it. The kind that only comes when you push it.
After several days of holiday eating and relaxation, I went back to the gym for running and lifting. Then I went dancing at ManRay, and danced hard. Hellraver actually dug out some oldies last night: Smothered Hope, So What... he did play 3 wumpscutt songs (overkill folks, there's enough music out there that you don't have to double up on bands) and Rachel spun in the back. A nice change of pace, I kept bouncing back and forth between the two. As usual today, I felt the soreness in my ankles and hips, but it is all worth it. There was a particularly amusing moment when I watched Catling frolicking with a charming redhead. Well done, Catling.
Hmm. Is it possible to broaden your standards w/out lowering them? Something to ponder... while I eat lunch.
