Didn't post this until now because Friday I left the gym, took a shower, and went straight to Mike Jones' place, drank, and passed out on his couch. When I woke up and didn't remember how I actually got on the couch I knew the night had been a success. I then picked up Ita from home and we went to the football game, which we actually won, then we came home. I'm taking this weekend off because 1) Ita is here and 2) it actually sets my lifting schedule up so that I lift again the day before the meet instead of 2 days before, which is how the program is intended to work.
Also, before the game we hung out with my parents and god Brazilian BBQ, which was totally sweet. They brought 3 more books from home on weightlifting so I can study and figure out how to properly write a program using the Russian style. Yay.

You lift the day before the meet? What does your program look like the week before? Is it mostly recovery?
It's light in the assistance exercises but actually I do 90% snatches and jerks the week of the meet. The latest is 90% snatches 5 days before and 90% jerks 7 days before. The latest that I do 90% clean and jerks is about 10 days before. In the Bulgarian style they will do competition level weights the week of the meet, at least at the national team level. The lifts are much easier to recover from than powerlifts, but still I like that the Russian system uses lighter weights closer to the competition.
