my BJJ blog

Can’t believe I missed class all this week…it’s not like I was busy and had stuff to do, I was just lazy.  What a bummer… Anyway, I made a no-gi class, so I should be happy… I came in late and caught just the tail end of warm-ups.  Technique was a butterfly sweep counter that [...]

This is a non-BJJ post.  I am advertising my services. I have just started working with a web design firm to create websites for small businesses. If you need a website for your business, whether you need one to create a web presence or you want to start an e-commerce site and sell your products [...]

Finally, some real snow in the city!!  After weeks of just flurries or sleet, it’s nice to see some real snow that sticks and actually accumulates.  I love winter!! I missed the jits after monday due to snowboarding (totally worth it) and a last minute scheduled job interview.  The interview was no longer than ten [...]

I’ll be training more often now as I was laid off last week due to a combination of changing job expectations and the bad economy. To maximize my time, I’ve changed my training schedule to the early afternoon class so I can use my evenings to spend time with my fiancee and use the rest [...]

I haven’t been doing much. My arm is in a sling and I can’t (read:shouldn’t) move my right arm one bit. It hurts if I so much as inch my shoulder in any direction. And since I can’t move it, I need to have my arm inside my shirt. Needless to say, I’m constantly shirtless [...]

I’ve been rather busy lately and haven’t been able to post anything for over a week now. Here’s my catch-up post for what’s been happening: I was finally offered an internship last week and as a result I’ve had to make some very difficult decisions. I’m making a bold move in leaving my job to [...]

Me and AG are going to Podcamp NYC.  Podcamp is a new media unconference (the un- is because it’s a free conference and is different from other conferences).  Check out the website for more info. Over the past year and more or so, I’ve discovered and got into all this new media lifestyle.  I read [...]
