late night musing

[Little Apple]

yeah, i think too much.

Heh, just a little.

You could always intro a "street cloths day" once a month where people trained self-defense in jeans and heels and skirts and impractical things like that.

a friend and i went to see comedy and sing karaoke. afterwards, i offered to walk her to her car. she said she was going to walk me to my car, because she outranked me. but i was going to walk her to her car, because she was wearing stiletto heels (you know, the slippery kind.) it was an interesting conversation because we were parked very close to each other so it was purely theoretical. she said that her heels were weapons. i insisted she could throw projectiles while watching me walk to my car. afterwards i was thinking that the point wasn't footwear, but do you train in the type of footwear you will wear. on the other hand, she has way more agility than i do and if she did fall over would have an easier time rolling and getting back up. BUT she's also more likely to really mess up her ankle, making it hard to stand (let alone fight). and also she may outrank me in her art, but i would outrank her in other arts i train in if they had ranks. then again, the guys i train the most with aren't into formality.

yeah, i think too much.

Have another beer and don't forget the designated driver.

This sounds like an intro for a show...lol.

Honestly it doesn't matter whom walks whom to the car as long as one of you gets a ride to the other's car, decreasing the risk of being alone.
