Didn't notice until a coworker asked me what happened to my eye.
Bit of a Fight Club moment; awkward pause after I replied "I reckon someone
punched me."
Two weeks in
2012 is starting off fairly unremarkable.
I'm making decent progress abusing my body in new and interesting ways at bodyplant.
I can now almost do 10 Rocky Pushups without falling on my face. So that's progress.
Still can't motivate to run just yet; it is properly too dark and cold in the morning.
But I did have the brilliant insight of moving my zafu to be directly in front of the radiator in the living room, so sitting in the mornings is actually warm and pleasant...until the Mokunasaurus comes trundling in demanding milk and a bagel.
Or more likely buttered toast. Which he calls cheese toast. Butter and cheese both being dairy products, and he being such a fan of milk, and oh yeah he isn't even three yet, so I will lit him slide with that one.
But seriously, why are my kids so into buttered toast lately? This is giving me flashbacks to The Broccoli Days, or that period of several months when every meal had to be accompanied by miso soup with scallions, seaweed, and tofu...

Thanks, son. That was so cheap to get repaired!
the year is young, i am not
Added on some extra warm padding for the winter these past couple of months. My motivation to wake up early (6am is pitch black and COLD) and exercise is zero.
However as of this week I am getting myself onto a program custom-designed by Adachi-sensei at BodyPlant. He has me working through a serious of upper body, torso, and lower body exercises designed to build strength, balance, and stamina. Basically, do some weight stuff to fatigue a set of muscles, then do something with those tired muscles that requires balance, explosive power, etc.
It is properly tiring and it's great to get back on a program.
Also interspersing that with several lunch sessions of getting beat up. Today I got punched in the face and kicked in the jaw by a former pro boxer who now runs an S&M bar. We are the same height and weight, but he is all muscle, twice as fast and strong as I am, and used to being hit. Luckily he has zero stamina as he hasn't trained in a long time, so if I can survive the first two minutes I can nail him the last minute.
Unluckily he is now training again, and once his stamina is back up, I am screwed.

After the bath
Jiji: Don't forget to brush your teeth!
Ōba: I don't have any teeth. See, dentures.
Jiji: So brush your gums! And clean your dentures!
