If it hurts that means you're doing it right....right?!?

So, as most of you know I am in the police academy. I am really enjoying my time there for the most part, and am learning all sorts of fun stuff. And then, they go and throw in stuff like PT (physical training) or DT (defensive tactics) and most recently PPCT (pressure point control tactics). So for the last week, we have been getting beat to just shy of a blood pulp every night, learning how to use different pressure points to defend ourselves. Good information to know, bad information to practice! I am sore in so many places, it actually hurts to type! So, forgive my lack of usual vigor, my brain is in the stuck in the Tylenol haze, I am covered in bruises literally from head to toe, and I made the mistake of trying to eat a taffy this morning (not good when your jaw is sore and you can't chew). So, I am going to take a few days off to let everything stop hurting. Meanwhile..I have to get this dang taffy out of my teeth...its driving me CRAZY!!
