Yours truly is now a Ni-Dan! (For those of you not familiar with the terminology, that means I'm now a second-degree black belt. In this style, there are a total of 10 black belt "levels.")

I'm afraid I'm a bit frayed right now, so details will have to wait... but it went well. I made two minor screwups on forms, and the overall evaluation was that I need to work on being a bit more Yin and a bit less Yang (amusing, since the other student got told the exact opposite ::G::), but we both passed.

Now I'm off for a celebratory dinner, then probably going to crash early tonight.

Thanks again to everyone who sent well-wishes -- they were greatly appreciated!
