Have a good nap, Nicole! You're a brave woman, doing that so soon after surgery.

Just heard back from the Japanese swordsmanship instructor.

Have you read Autumn Lightning [link] It's both the personal experiences of a student of kenjutsu and how kenjutsu reached its height as an art just before it became largely obsolete as a fighting method.

"In the changing of the times, they were like autumn lightning, a thing out of season, an empty promise of rain that would fall unheeded on fields already bare."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I haven't. I really don't know much about it, actually. I just saw the class in the community college course catalog. For my research interests, I really ought to be fencing instead, but this is a lot cheaper and more convenient, and I figure it'll still make my swordfighting scenes better than they are now! And I'll either love it for its own sake, discover a new interest, and stick with it, or I'll switch to fencing when my budget permits and unlearn/relearn as needed.

What size would a kids XS t-shirt from a t-shirt shop probably be in numbers? I'm trying to decide if something I bought for my nephew last summer will still fit him or if I should pass it on to someone else.
