Sleepy Skate

 Wow, today was a waste. Last night I fell asleep super early and slept hard all night long. I struggled to get out of bed this morning for my 6:15am session at Apex but I dragged myself to the rink anyway. Seriously, I felt hungover from sleep and didn't feel like I was entirely awake. It was a rough skate as a result. 

Movez - Yeah...all of it. Not good. I could not turn a backward 3 turn today and everything else felt gross. I worked on everything except spirals so at least I tried. 

Programz - Since jumping felt dangerous today, I didn't do much in the way of that and needless to say, I didn't run my program. I did work, though! I've been re-watching the video and really want to fix some problem spots with my arms. So, I did several passes of my step sequence and I worked a bit on the section after my first jump combo to try to make it less soft and more dramatic. 

Overall, it was just an off day. It happens sometimes. I have my two hour session tomorrow at the Y and I think things will be better. I'll see if I can run my program twice to make up for missing today. 

I've still got the rest of my work day to get through so I've got some coffee and an overwhelming sense of existential dread to carry me through. Cool.
