so i signed up for 5 sessions of yoga... of course, once i handed over the check i think that's when the yogi (is that the proper term?) decided tonight would be the session to start making erin into a pretzel now that i have been sucked in...
seriously, the headstand, i could do, sorta...
but, and follow me here.... the part where i had to put my hands on the floor in line with the inside of my feet, then scoot my feet towards the inside and then HOOK MY ANKLES TOGETHER and - get this - LIFT MY BODY UP AND BALANCE...
what the mother of christmas heck is THAT all about?
so, the outcome of THAT move... i fell... KER-BLAM!! foward onto my face and knees...
so once again, my knees are scraped up.
----
i am relaxed though - i think it's from exhaustion... very difficult to concentrate on breathing when beads of sweat at dripping down one's nose.
a glowing word of praise from the "yogi" - she said "you are really quite flexible" - i wanted to ask her if i could get that in writing and get that notorized for when i am out on a date.

oh... and by the way... there's a happy ending to one saga....
I GOT MY TAX REFUND CHECK TODAY - promptly ran down to the bank and deposited it (i am still waiting for nj's refund... this one was federal... the main one that was scarfed up by the nj snafu)
so all is well in the world and emilio estevez in all his repo=glory will not be trekking around my street in the dead of night.
