-Yesterday I went to a special extra long, extra hard yoga class called "Eye of the Tiger", named, yes, after the song, "Eye of the the Tiger." While attempting to attempt handstand AWAY from the wall, I accidentally did a somersault into backbend, and fortunately did not kill my yoga teacher, who had moved her mat slightly over, not realizing that if she hadn't I would have smooshed her! It was an extroardinarily fearless moment of pushing my boundaries.
-Got 50 minutes of cardio at the gym today (since it's spring break I can work out on monday) and while I was stretching a friendly fellow gym lady said, "nice pidgeon pose!"
-Someone else asked me if I had lost weight??!!! maybe this is for real???
-Finished "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle" by Barbara Kingsolver... it's about her family moving to a farm and growing almost all their own food for a year. OMG... she describes her trip to Italy and all her meals in the Italian countryside, and I seriously cried. It made me fantasize about moving to Italy and becoming a farmer... just so I can have the most amazing food in the world. (You guys have probably figured out... I *love* good food.)
-A cello friend of mine brought me a slice of key lime pie with cinnamon whipped cream?!!!!! Late at night at school while I was practicing???!!! Just because she was being nice.
I was thinking about this friend... for a while a couple months ago she was extremely withdrawn, and when I'd talk to her, she would get very existential very quickly and it was kind of overwhelming. But she seems to have gone through some sort of metamorphosis... bought herself some awesome new cowboy boots, is going to a Tree House Hostel for spring break, and delivered me this delightful pie! Suddenly I want to spend WAY more time with her now that she doesn't seem to need anyone. I think she is DB'ing and doesn't even know it. This all connects, of course, to Kalni's RADICAL PROGRESS by being a sassy lass and making HERSELF happy!!
Oh... and I made a waxing appointment for tomorrow!!!!
