Quickie

well, i just applied to five more yoga jobs, and i'm playing phone tag with someone in charge of group fitness classes at bally's total fitness in porter square. things are going great. i have to say that i've done a better job continuing my asana practice and meditation practice outside of kripalu this time around, and i'm feeling all the saner for it.

this has been a lovely weekend. on friday evening, i went out for drinks with some coworkers to celebrate/mourn the departure of one of my favorite admins at FM. we went across the street to whiskey's and had a few beers. it was so much fun! it's great seeing coworkers outside of work -- getting to know them as human beings beyond the bounds of desk banter. alcohol helps.

then, when i got home, daN and i chatted for a bit until the bogs got here! yay! we all went out for dinner at rudy's for some enchilladas and margaritas and excellent conversation. we hadn't seen them forever! it was so nice to see them! yesterday, we didn't see them AT ALL since they were recording with kal-el all day, but i did get to sleep in, bake like a mad-woman (i made some sourdough starter and some chocolate chip banana bread), did blissful yoga to my heart's content (something that doesn't happen very often), and then we packed up ship to see the play "beyond therapy" with laura and dave all the way the hell out to BU in allston. it was really well done! i'm not sure i could have handled being involved in it, but it was great to see, and the acting was, by and large, fantastic. it's always great to see a play. we got home at exactly the same time boggies did, and we all had some tea together before dragging our asses into bed.

this morning, i woke the boggies up at 8 so we could do yoga before breakfast (otherwise, the way things go, it wouldn't have happened at all). i love teaching yoga! and the guided meditation i did with them had them on a different planet, so daN and i got breakfast going while they were gliding around in the astral plains on our living room floor covered in warm blankets. breakfast was apple crisp, cheddar popovers, and spicy eggs with fresh squeezed orange juice that daN lovingly slaved over. it was delectable, and i'm just now getting hungry enough to eat again. we then took a schpatzier around the neighorhood to enjoy the sun and shake the food down, and meandered our way into an open house for a set of these incredible condos not too far-off. they were certainly beautiful, and daN and i definitely don't have $850,000 to sink into a place right now. ah well. we continued to prospect hill park -- something that contains a cool old fortress from days of yore and forefathers, and made our way home, taking pictures of beautiful houses along the way. it was lovely.

boggies had to leave, and daN and i had to clean. plants to be repotted, and of course, more yoga to do :) i finally took a shower and decided to look at email again, and here i am. time for dinner, then meeting Q so we can mosey down to davis square and hang out together with some folks. all in all, a great weekend. hard not to love the sunshine.
