Every so often when you walk into the actual gym at Carmine it really seems like a beautiful place: the gym is almost empty, the sun is streaming in through the windows and the gym is cool (ish) in temperature. Last night was one of those nights. Call me crazy, but the gym seemed really nice and inviting when I walked in. It was almost totally empty (Alex was there) and I walked in with Sean. I was exhaused, but it felt great to be at Carmine at that moment.
I spent a very groggy two and 1/2 hours juggling. I worked on heat/foot stuff with the volley ball. I was so tired that I could not pull off much, but the basic juggling with 3 balls and a foot juggle and 3 balls and a head bounce feels solid. I finished up working with clubs for a while. Here is the deal with my new Henry's clubs vs the PX3s:
The PX3s are better clubs, but the Henry's clubs are more fun to juggle. No question about it, the kind of club tricks I like to do: body throws, kick ups, etc, are harder with the Henry's. I just can not get the same length runs I was getting with the PX3s. But I hate the balance on the PX3 clubs. They are so bottom heavy. I hate that 'hammer' filp feeling that they have. It's like this: have you ever worked with someone who is a bit of an asshole, but they really get the job done? I mean, if you didn't have to work with them, you really wouldn't want to hang out. But at work, they are great because they get stuff done and don't care about who they step on. That is like the PX3s. The Henry clubs on the other hand are the good guy that you really want to be friends with 'cause he is fun, but when push comes to shove and you've got critical stuff on the line at work, he's just not there for you. Crazy huh?
Sean was training for joggling with 5 balls.
Dinner at Chinese was fun. I had sushi rolls. There were too many people that I wanted to talk to: Melissa, Katy, Paris, Paul, etc. I sort of felt like on of those cartoons of the swivel heads.
Getting home sucked. The tunnel was all jamed up, and then when I got home at 12AM, I had to work until 1:30. Then I got called at 6AM to do more work. I am so exhausted right now.
