SHOULD HAVE STAYED HOME

I should have stayed home and saved my money, I sucked at the Tournament yesterday. It was a LONG drug out Tournament and I did OK in forms, I took first place, but I wasn't ready or focused when it came time to spar. The ref told me I had plenty of time, that they were going to run a different division first, so I ran to change into my sparring gear and by the time I got back to the ring, they told me I was fighting, I didn't even have all my gear on. I made my first mistake by putting my wrong side forward, I have a specific side I prefer, don't know where my head was at, but it sure wasn't there in the ring. I got tapped with a couple of round kicks that wouldn't have killed a fly, didn't make a difference how hard I hit or what I did, the judge only saw what he wanted to see. Whatever, no excuse's, it was my own fault, I should have went home while I was ahead with the Kata win. But somewhere along the way they didn't annouce grand champion forms and me and a few others that qualified missed it, so it was over and done. Since it was their error, the said they would run a second one for the rest of us,this time I FORGOT my form halfway through. This has happened to just about everyone at one time or another, and it wasn't my first time, I just wasn't focused on what I was doing. I planned on riding Cruella into the city today, but it rained and stormed so I tried to get some stuff done around the house. Tomorrow morning I have to go get another tire for Hammer because I will be riding up to MN this week for the Benefit and even though it still look's good, I'm not going to push it. I'm bringing some of the RIP Patch's with me, so if you haven't got one on line, you can get one at the benefit this Sunday. Have a great week, CG
