Take two!

OK, I stole the post title from an MMA weekly article. The Aguilar fight is back on, June 19th in Florida. Four weeks today! Training is going well and I’m really looking forward to this one.

It’s made life a little more crazy than usual though. I’m doing a clinical exam the week before I fly out, written exams the weekend after I get back and somewhere in there I have to finish writing up a case study. So far, I have a heading, a few subheadings and a single reference… it’s not looking good!

My latest PhD Nutrition delivery arrived today. I was particularly excited about this one because they’ve got some new products out that I wanted to try. The delivery turned up during grappling class at lunchtime. Gaz, my sparring partner at the time, said “look, PhD’s here!” then jumped on my back and choked me. Can’t believe I fell for that one. It was worth it though. And it got me through my weights workout. I’m sure my strength and conditioning coach is trying to kill me! 

Luis has settled in nicely at school now. Today he came home asking “what’s Urdu?”. We chatted for a bit about why people spoke different languages and listened to some Urdu and Spanish nursery rhymes on youtube. Made me realize how much things have changed since I was that age.  Speaking of schools, here’s another TED talk that I really liked.
