Handstand headiness and cat concerns

[flexagon]

Injured myself in a highly promising way tonight. I was doing press-walks (that'd be a drill toward the press handstand), and getting very close to getting my feet off the floor, so they'd drag a bit. And I was focused and I had gotten good feedback, and I was trying so hard. And my feet apparently came off the floor, swung forward and smashed into my wrists. Now I have a cut on my left wrist from my toenail, and I'm thinking did I really do that?. I think I did really do that. If I really did do that, and I'm taking handstand classes twice a week, I bet 2012 is my year.

I remember a long time ago when nevers couldn't press yet, and she could get her feet off the ground but they'd come forward, and I wonder if that's a thing, a phase I'm going to go through.

We had a health scare with Rafe today; he was lying on his side, breathing fast and not responding to heisenbug. The vet couldn't find anything wrong, and I missed the whole thing because I didn't hear my phone. :-( I'm going to try to be more consistent about turning its ring volume up and having it out on my desk, from now on.

I already took melotonin... sleep-time.

Re: Rafe -- oh no! What's the status now?

Thanks for asking. Rafe is totally fine. He "woke back up", or whatever, right after heisenbug got him in the carrier, and he's been his usual inscrutable self ever since. He's fat and is starting to have a limp more often, but doesn't seem unhappy.

Sigh. Can't tell what happened at all.
