illegitimi non carborundum

We had our first day of our MT retreat today, and it was much better than I thought it would be. This one is much more hands-on than our first retreat was, and not filled with silly ropes course games (some of which I like, don't get me wrong). But we talked a lot more about technique, and experimented with altering some of the techniques we know. I'm really hoping I'll learn more about what I feel under my hands; palpation skills are tricky for me.

I was bummed this evening because I was all set to come home, exhausted, and pop in 'Whale Rider' while vegetating on the couch. Approximately 45 minutes later, I determined that our DVD player is broken. Acckk! What will I do without movies? I'll have to go buy a new one, pronto. Great.
