Did alright in today's resistance class. Still took it easy with the weights (did 8lb dumbbells) and was careful when stretching out. Getting back to normal--whatever that may be.

Watched a Werner Herzog film tonight--Rescue Dawn. A war story about a pilot who had to bail out over Laos while on a clandestine mission in 1965. The story is based on true events and portrays the pilot's grueling efforts to escape from capture and find his way back so he could be rescued. It was a gritty story that had a lot of real-life actions that were recreated. The actors all lost an incredible amount of weight to prep for their roles. They also had to endure primitive and rustic locations set in the jungle and along the banks of a river. The film is a typical Herzog extravaganza--replete with soaring scenery and brutal conditions. It was a well done film. It was kept on topic and did not mushroom into a lengthy narrative.

It's getting late. I think I dreamed last night (I'm sure I did) but no details now. Didn't nap in the afternoon. Did nap after breakfast for a short while before going to class. Laundry day tomorrow!
