I decided to be responsible the last several days, and design the electrical circuitry for my house. I am going to rewire my house, and have the electricians put in a new service. I almost have it all down on paper. I still need to account for one light and 2 receptacles..... Oops.
Last Saturday I stopped by my fencing club to pay my dues for the month. In order to avoid a certain someone, who you have all heard about, I haven't gone fencing for two months. My ex is a very good fencer, and she got me started in the sport. While we were together, I became very passionate about fencing, and after we split, I didn't know if I could maintain that passion. So, I decided to appear in person and see how I currently felt about the sport, and the people there.
I received such a wonderful, and warm welcome from my buddies and coach, that it made me really happy. I didn't realize that I missed them so much. Tonight, my Tango buddies decided that dancing wasn't in the stars, so I went fencing instead. I went to the hour group lesson, and fenced the "really good" fencers for an hour after that.
Tonight my soul is content, although my body is a bit sore. I realized that I really miss fencing. It is a thrill trying to hit someone with a three foot ice pick, and not get hit in return. I missed all the dorky guys, and my favorite lefty, who always kicks my ass. Tonight I discovered that I do still have the passion for fencing. Deal with it, she must, because I will be back..........

Thank you all for your support.

Tab, my ex is very beautiful, but she went back to fencing for me. And, I fell in love with it. I don't think she will be back to the club for a while. We are both doing better not seeing each other.
The only other person at the club with a camera is my ex. I don't think she would be willing to come in and take a picture of me. I will see if I can find an old photo........
I am glad you are coming back to fencing - it takes a special person to realize how fun it is to pay money to bruise people (male ego deflating at no extra charge). cool!
