Lost

This is our latest most-watched show, although I don't like it as much as Heroes but we don't have access to Heroes Season 2 yet--no one does. The bad thing about DVD'ing all these TV series is we are 2 years behind everyone else. The good thing is, NO COMMERCIALS!!!

Not that we have a lot of spare time to be watching all this shit right now anyway. I have been working 12-hour days to bring home the bacon and S is studying his ass off. We figured out a good plan for Thursdays however, since that's my day to work at Job #1 from 9a-6p. S drives himself to school on Thursdays and I get to sleep late. I slept 9 1/2 hours last night!

I'm giving myself a treat next week, though. Tuesday-Wednesday I am going to be up at the sheriff's academy taking a 2-day class called "Groundfighting for Female Officers"! Does that sound like fun or what! Check out the description:
"The purpose of this course is to provide students with techniques to defend attempted takedowns and ground defense techniques if taken down. The course consists of weapon retention defense techniques while standing and on the ground. This is an extremely labor intensive course that requires students to be in excellent physical condition. Students will be required to participate in an intense stretching and warm-up session prior to instruction each day.
Students will be provided with head and face protection, striking mits, grappling gloves and shin protectors."
And it's a full class too, 24 of us chick cops. I can't believe I get to do things like this for free! (Of course, people can't believe I work as the police for free either, so there you go.) Not sure I count myself as being in "excellent physical condition" but I guess I'll just have to fake it!
