No footbag for the past while. I'm "working" night shifts, so it's weird. Plus the week long rain we had was a large reason why. But I feel like I haven't played in forever. I am playing tomorrow with Shawn near his criznab.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some news. I saw a cat that got run over by a car. It was really sad. I walked up to it and looked at it up close. It's skull was flattened a bit. Blood was laying about in radial lines, as it must have squirted out. One eye had popped out and layed a few inches from the socket. The eye was squished and bloddy. The other eyelid was closed, but it must have been eyeless as well. The jaw was smashed downward with all of the cat's teeth spilling out the bottom. I didn't know what to do. I felt so bad for the animal. I wanted to do something good for him. Bury him or something. Or start up a flyer informing people of keeping their cats indoors, and helping prevent the growing population of homeless animals.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yesterday I was on the bus and train, and saw three different women putting on makeup. It's weird because I've never seen it once, and here it goes three times in the same day.

Kicked with Shawn on Saturday. @ skate park. Really fun. Shawn gets progressively better. Pixie and whirl are beauties. I hit flip bubba beater easy. Dlo'ing toe almost bsos. I tried smear off a parking bloack and twisted the shit out of my ankle. Same one i twisted back in march. That took 2 months to heal. this one thankfully - after 2 minutes - was fine. i was really worried another 2 months I was out for.
Afterward we went out to these cool night spots on the south side. they were huge, and now I think I'm convinced that there are more cool young people on the southside than up North. I finally saw part of the soutside of chicago, and I'm not totally scared of it anymore. Fooseball, darts, and chicas - I'm heading down there again soon.


Sesh by myself in my alley 2 days ago. gyro whirl BS. spinning whirl almost BS. Theeeenn, I tried a move I knew i coudn't hit - just for fun - spinning symp whirl. I totally almost hit it. Is that montage or whirlwind? So huge and fun.
Afterward I put a basket on the grass with a seat cushion on it. I layed down on it then tried some backbend flips. The beginning of real backflips. A little safer. Then I did a handstand against the garage wall. i thought of going into a handstand and tried... I did it. Lifted up my whole body wihth my arms. My feet on the wall provided me with good stability. I practiced standing in place too. My back and abs were sore the next day.

I wanna practice gyro whirl and spinning whirls now. :)

:lol: I know, I'm an asshole for laughing.

Keep up the good work Tom. I really respect your will to keep your body in shape using more unique ways. I've been on a sloppy slouch for a couple weeks...I need to start training harder again to prep for Chicago. ARE YOU READY !?!?!? :!: :?:

It's really hard to call either flip. Wait till you hit both sides and then do one more consistent. Though you almost had the other side yesterday too, so maybe you'll never have a flip ripwalk. It can happen - school both.

Oh shit, I'm an eyptian footgod! I missed my 1000th post.
