Bikram day 3

Amazingly enough, after about 2 hours of solid coughing in the middle of the night, I made it OK thru a class this morning. Amy taught and I took it easy as best I could and didn't almost pass out this time. Oh and there was a very beligerent biker dude leaving when I was waiting for class to begin, it looked like he was going to beat up Ben.
