Adventures in Sparring

I almost didn’t go to Kung Fu tonight because for some reason my knee started to really bother me out of the blue and I could hardly walk.  I was a good little cohort though and stuck around to give it my all.

I went up against this one dude that I usually slug it out with when sparring time started.  We usually end up hurting each other pretty bad but tonight took the Chinese Food.  Not cake.  Get it?  Kung-Fu.

Anyway he went to kick me but yours truly blocked it and countered with a fist in the stomach.. just barely.  My arm really hurt after that block from his shin, but his shin hurt pretty bad from my arm.  Yin-Yang baby.  I took a look at my arm and at first thought that I broke the bone because there was a pretty gnarly lump there.  I rubbed it out and finished the bout, but unfortunately after that him and I went to do some punch/block drills.  Yeah, that really felt great on my forearm.  I do hope it leaves a cool mark or something though.  The swelling in the pic is a lot less than what it looked like at first unfortunately.

On a side note, today is my first day with no medical insurance.  Ah the life of a Contractor!
