I am such a bad blogger.  I can’t believe I haven’t blogged since I found out the results of my test (weeks ago!).  I wish I can say life was too busy, but alas, that isn’t why I haven’t been blogging.  I haven’t been blogging because I don’t really like this computer.  I feel uninspired when sitting at this computer desk I despise on a very uncomfortable chair not even meant to be used for this purpose…sigh.  There’s no way I can fill you in on everything that’s gone on since I last posted, but I’ll fill in the big spots and post all the pictures and videos taken since.  Then I vow, once again, to be a responsible blogger.  :)  Everyone deserves a 4th chance.

Martial Arts:

I tested for my red belt in TKD this past Saturday.  I thought the testing went really well.  I’m finally learning not to be so nervous.  I even brought my own audience (Bryan, his mother and grandparents, and Jason).  I still don’t officially know if I passed yet, but I would assume so.  Therefore, I should be getting my new belt at the ceremony on Thursday.

I also tested for my blue sash in Tai Chi last night.  I messed up a few times.  I even had to start the sword form over.  This has never happened to me before, and I’m not quite sure how I feel about it or even what happened out there.  Oh well, I don’t want to dwell on it.

Other:

Bryan is currently in Tampa on business.  He’ll be back on Friday, and he’ll leave again on Sunday for more business in NYC.  I miss him terribly.  I’m taking advantage of him being gone next week to drive to Mississippi and be with my family.  I’ve been missing them like crazy.  I’m very thankful for this opportunity to go home.  Bryan is going to fly into Jackson, MS instead of Austin just so he can ride back home with me.  Now, that is love, and love him I do! 🙂

Songs I’m digging at the moment:

I Run to You – Lady Antebellum
