Bear with me, my O is hurting
My O key is only working sporadically, so if you see some O's missing, bear with me. I'm trying to fix them as I go along. Oh, I just ripped off the key by accident. (I was trying to clean around it with a pen cap.) In a way, it's easier to type o's now. I never realized how many o's there were.
Anyway, yoga school is about to come to an end. I'm going to miss it. I know, I complained about all the stress and interminable homework assignments. But it was nice to be together with people, doing something I love, learning a lot and becoming comfortable with public speaking. I think the trick is to see it as chatting with friends, not making announcements to a group.
It's bitterly cold here today. Before, it's been brisk, kind of a nice jovial cold, but now it's the real thing, with puddles frozen and everything.
There was a guy in yoga today who was totally new and had trouble with almost all the poses, so the teacher kept coming back to him and showing him what to do. He was sitting next to me and I figured I could learn how to help new people, so I watched them. She spent a long time getting him into a seated spinal twist. Then she realized he was on the wrong side. Laughing, he switched over. It was cute.
I have a shameful confession to make. My reading is getting trashier by the minute. I've started reading Red Dress Ink books from the library. They're one of the chick lit imprints, but I always felt Downtown Press and Avon Trade were better. Now I like Red Dress Ink, except the "glamour lit" ones - you know, where the girl works as an assistant in the fashion industry and names like Prada and Christian Louboutin get bandied about.
Yesterday I finished "A Wedding in December" by Anita Shreve. It was good, though there was an historical narrative embedded in it that left me with a sour taste in my mouth. A little bit cheesy and sleazy, as a girl I knew in college would say.

As a yOga person it must be especially difficult when your O key is on the fritz... ;-)
Liz - it was actually pretty good, though not one of her best. It is hard ;)
Thank you for the birthday well-wishes. It's been fun.
Cheesy & Sleasy...sounds good to me!
Capybaras, you are a certified sillyhead.

My n key is completely naked. The n is gone. Are Macs using the bargain brand key ink? Probably so.
