Not having my usual stenobook today, I didn't write as much as usual after practice. But it was a good solid Tuesday practice, which meant a vigorous kihon session and then men-o-tsuke earlier than usual--it's a good week when I can get four solid hours under the buton. I also got a chance to practice with three sensei today, and I guess my attitude has changed from avoidance (I don't remember when I used to do that, but earlier, certainly) to chomping at the bit to practice with as many sensei as I possibly can. In any case, today I managed to land a few nice waza, but I should keep it kihonier, I think, and at the same time I really need to work on my kote, which can land well, but is more of a tap rather than a cut, and has me stop moving right afterward, rather than following through with any real zanshin. I'm cautioned especially against making too many kote feints which might make my real kote-uchi even more faint and uncommitted. So it's something to work on, rather than my men-centric approach of late.

It's just sad how I've left behind suburi after that blister, but will probably need to later next week since I will have many different interruptions.
