Couldn't ask for more...

 First of all... WTF?!...How come nobody blogs around here anymore? 

  Why hello there, People!  Thanks so much for the birthday wishes.  Made me all kinds of warm n fuzzy.  Now...I'm gonna skip the whole "I'm sorry I haven't blogged" crap.  However, I will say sorry for being a douche for not blogging.  I blame video games and this beautiful creature...

  That's our Jenny.  I couldn't think of a more perfect name.  Jenny's a lot bigger now....and she's doing this at the moment...

  Hilarious cat, I tell you.  

  So, I just got back from Zhuozhou yesterday.  I just finished my part in a movie that stars Donnie Yen.  It was great to finally work with him.  I don't care what people say...I think he's a sexy human being.  Hard working.  Punctual.  Creative.  Swears in Cantonese + English (fuckin' awesome, btw).  Skilled in martial arts.  If that's not sexy...I don't know what is.

  In this movie, I play this dude who fights Donnie.  I have a spear as a weapon:

I have no clue how to use this thing...but I had to pretend I do.  Thanks to Donnie's stunt team...bumps/bruises on my head and limbs were limited.   

Donnies uses this:

Thanks to Donnie and his awesome skills.... I did not get hit by this...mighty...scary...holyshitwheresmymom...hell of a weapon.

When you've been sittin' on your ass..playin' a lot of video games to the point you don't know the date and shit...and all of a sudden have to get up and swing around large dangerous weapons for at least 12 hrs/day.....that shit will suck.  Also, gallopin' on a reeeeeeeeeeeeally fast horse for the first time...will make you wish you'd never had legs, a spine, and a sack of jewels.    I needed treatment.  My body was in on the brink of collapsing.  A massage would be fantastic!   But instead...I did Gua Sha:

...and  now I look like this:

To me...Gua Sha feels like somebody using a tiny iron on you..over and over. Repeatedly.  For like an hour.  It was the suck.  Yes.  The suck.   I'm pretty sure I will never pick this over a massage...ever again.  Ever.  I want to cry. 

Those 18 days felt like what bootcamp+rehab would feel like.  Glad I'm back in HK now.  My lovely Jenn tackled me as I walked out and I carried her to the end of the arrival gate.   Got home and had a Cake of Awesomeness:

That's not the name of the cake..but it should be.  I was soooooo happy......I blew 2 candles out with my nose.  

 Thanks for a great birthday, everyone.   Especially....:

..just couldn't ask for more.
