Sleep really is for the weak.
Mar. 18th, 2005 04:51 pmIt's Friday! And it's a Friday that is payday! That's the best kind of Friday, y'all.
So, weird story: I usually lift on Thursdays, but I've been trying to take it a little easy on my knees this week, so yesterday I just ended up doing some yoga. It's a nice way to work out, but I usually don't get sore from it, because it stretches you out so well. However, I woke up this morning after falling asleep in front of the TV (I really have to stop doing that), and everything from my hips to my knees felt sore. That usually only happens the day after a good wushu practice or a lifting session, so it was a little weird.
Now, I've been known to do some random, weird stuff in my sleep before, without any knowledge that I was doing it. So, I asked J after he got up if he noticed me doing anything unusual the night before. He said that, yes, I *had* been doing some stuff in my sleep.
J: "...yeah, you were doing like, wushu forms or something."
Me: ::snicker:: "Yeah, right."
J: "I'm serious! You were doing this squatting thing."
Me: "Squatting thing? What kind of squatting thing? Like sitting?"
J: "Yeah, it was like you were tryng to sit on nothing!"
A few more questions later, and I figured out that I was, apparently, holding horse stance for 150 counts, like we've been known to do at practice. Except I was doing it at home. In the middle of the night. IN MY SLEEP. I guess that helps explain the soreness, but still, WTF?? ::rotfl::
God, this effing sport is taking over my life.
In other news, Survivor is surprisingly good this season. Vanuatu kind of made me want to jam something pointy in my eye, I think because I didn't really like most of the people they cast. I kind of expected this new season to be horrible, but it seems like there are so many more enjoyable people-as-characters that I have a hard time deciding who to root for. When it comes to this show, the cast will make or break the entire season.
( Rambling about some cast members )
ANYWAY. I must be off for Portlandia soon. I'll be back probably sometime in the afternoon tomorrow! :D
