Vector sum: zero

Well, that was inefficient. If I could've taken all the time I spent on trains and buses and taxis today, and spent that time contiguously on an airplane instead, I could have flown to California. Instead, here I am at home, with a fair chunk of knitting done but zero total motion. :-/

That said, I did a bunch of good front handsprings tonight on the tumble track with no spot, and am pretty proud of that. Next week I bet we'll take them to the floor. (Update: except that we won't, because there's no acro next week. Waaaaah.)

Someone also tried to teach me how to practice a press handstand against the wall... hmm, super promising exercise that I really think could help me, but I failed to get the feel of it tonight. I can try it on my own this week (preferably in private. I'm sure there's nothing dumber-looking than a person bent over against the wall, motionless, grunting every now and then with invisible effort).
