  • I did the one hour long Yoga Stretch class yesterday. My friend who I met via Craigslist to go walking with who has become my gym buddy as we now both go to 24-hour Fitness was supposed to meet me there stood me up. I went with her last week and that was okay because we are both rank amatuers and it's okay to be sucky when you are standing next to someone you know looking like a schlub and you can both giggle about it later as you walk carefully down the stairs because your abused hamstrings hurt. But this week, nope, no one to giggle with (though, admittedly, I did some inward giggling at the very awkward man who was yoga-ing next to me) and my hamstrings don't even really hurt. Apparently I need to stretch a bit more in the downward facing dog. I do hate the mirrors though. I know they're supposed to help with your form but really - who wants to spend an hour staring at themselves in yoga poses in the mirror? I don't!

    Today I have personal training and then Mr Dog and I are headed to the dog park. I'm very bored of the dog park. I know I shouldn't be and I love puppies and all that jazz but bugger me if I want to go every day. Blah.

    Interestingly though, on Sunday I met a friend (the lady who gave me Indiana) and two of Indiana's sisters (Sidney and Alice - clever, huh?) at a different dog park. And they are horrible heathens and completely untrained. I felt much better about my dog after meeting them although, I suppose it is a given that I've put that much time into making him NOT be a heathen.

    There was also a full-blooded wolf at that dog park on Sunday and then a completely different wolf at a completely different dog park on Monday. I don't like wolves as pets. They freak me the fuck out. The way they look at you...I don't enjoy being regarded as supper and that's what I see in their eyes when they look at me. I don't know, perhaps it's pure human reaction to a large carnivore that really could kill you and lacks that submissive look as a dog has. I guess certain dogs have freaked me out like that too - usually ill-trained pits and boxer mixes....

    Anyhow, back to your Tuesday of fun.
    At least the weather here is BRILLIANT (I love my 70 and sunny)
