Odds and ends
Not too much to report today. I went to yoga as usual. Did I mention that all my classes at this studio are FREE since I paid my tuition for yoga school? Yay! I go 5-6 times a week now. It would be 7 times a week but something always happens to eat up a day.
My yoga teacher brought up Katrina's devastation of New Orleans, but I think she was factually inaccurate. She talked about how she went to college there, how it's one of the most charming cities, and now it will be full of "toxins and cesspools." D assured me this will not happen. Anyway, it was a good class. She played some songs that were a wild mixture of techno and Hindu chanting. It reminded me a bit of the Bend it Like Beckham soundtrack, but without so many words.
In the elevator, a guy with some kind of accent (British? Australian?) held the door open for me and joked that it was the "[center's name] express." I smiled politely, but I was reeling inwardly at his shirt. It had pictures of blondes, brunettes and redheads, '50s pinup style, lounging around half-dressed (or not dressed at all, with their long hair strategically draped over their bodies). WHO WEARS A SHIRT LIKE THAT? I was glad to see everyone represented, but still.
I've decided to hold off on baking goodies for a while, unless I'm going to a LARGE party or something. I just can't resist them, especially the brownies I made recently (and posted the recipe for). Single serving desserts are much better for me. With that in mind, I bought a peanut butter cup cookie at Big Booty Bread Co. today. I think they know my order now. I wonder if I'll appear on their balance sheet at the end of the year - Bearette24, 300 cookies (I feel slightly nauseous thinking about it).
Anybody have good movies to recommend, that I can take out of the library? I used to love the movie Damage, but now that I am married and have a father-in-law, it would probably make me queasy. In college I thought it was quite yummy though. And morally inexcusable, of course :)

Movies... my husband and I have been into oldies lately. We recently rented The 7 Year Itch and Roman Holiday.
I've got Roman Holiday...love Audrey Hepburn. Maybe I'll check out The 7 Year Itch. Though Marilyn is just so giggly.
I am so glad your mother adopted that doggy, by the way.
It's amusing to take a glimpse at a very different time, though...
I'm planning to watch When Harry Met Sally again soon in your honor ;)
