OHS- shit!

It is really hard to believe that I have been at CF for over a year and have never done an overhead squat... must be either I missed that day or I was doing a modified workout when I was injured... whatever the case may be, today I got to do them.  I must admit I was nervous about the workout:
Rx is 63 lbs
20 Thrusters
20 SDLHU
20 Push Jerk
20 OHS
20 Front squats
@ 16k
on the minute 6 KBS
especially since I hadn't done OHS.  I went in, warmed up and then went through each of the movements.  The OHS felt good with the "training bar" which may be 15lbs.???  Put heavier weights on there and then I start swaying.  I started to freak out mentally since everyone else in the starting strength program Rx'd it, and I couldn't control that weight.  So Coach noticed me pacing and thinking too much... yelled at me to get focused, I went outside had a melt down, came in, focused, ready to do the WOD.  (after waiting for JB, who by the way takes forever to get ready...  :o}) 3, 2, 1, go....  took me 6 sets to get the OHS done....OHS, 3 then 6 KB swings, 3 OHS, 6KB swings, 3 OHS, 6KB swings, 3 OHS, 6 KB swings, 3 OHS, 6 KB swings, 5 OHS, (with a lot of grunting..)
I used 53lbs and my time was 13:55? 

Goal today:  relax by pool with a few beers!
