	<title><![CDATA[The infamous "No Pain, No Gain Tally" for the past]]></title>
	<body><![CDATA[Pains... :(
- One Sensei-sprained Dai-Yonkyo wrist.
- One sprained middle finger from a freak occurence involving the heel of my own Sensei's not-yet-ranked uke at the seminar (I guess this means I won't be flipping anyone off for a while.  Rats.)  
- Sore shoulders from working out.  A new and...delightful treat.
- That damn Aiki-Otoshi.  'Nuff said.

Gains...  :)
- A heck of a lot of training.
- Experience (ie. another great seminar)
- Knowledge (in the form of three books read and one video on ukemi watched --- see last entry)
- Reps.  Lots of them.  I'll beat that Aiki-Otoshi into submission yet!
- A growing (though often fluxuating) self-confidence.  Yay me!]]></body>
