Violently happy
Sep. 19th, 2007 09:42 amLast night I had a wonderful dinner out with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
adammaker. It's been a while since I went to Free State Brewery because it's just so damn loud. But we got there at 5:15 and the restaurant was pretty empty. Which means it was only twice as loud as any other place in town, so it was bearable. And I do love the Brewhouse Chicken Salad. Mmmm. Oh, and I believe they serve La Prima Tazza coffee for their house coffee. Wasn't that a nice surprise for someone who was too chilly to order a beer!
Whenmckitterick got home we watched the Flowfit DVD I ordered. I was super impressed. adammaker gave good advice about just watching it through before trying it. The moves look simple, but they're going to take a lot of concentration to do them with good form and grace. Challenging and exciting! The program is all about working with your own body weight and minimal props/equipment. In fact, at the advanced levels, all you need is a fairly open space and a sticky mat. It's still available for only the cost of manufacturing and shipping (about seven bucks). Go order your copy!
Here's hoping I can do stuff in yoga tonight. I'm doing my best to keep the scabs on my knee and foot from getting hard (go go Green Oil!), but they're still pulling a bit. If we do much Hero Pose (Virasana), I'm gonna have to ask for alternate poses. And Virasana is one of my favorite poses, too. Oh well, the injuries are my own fault for not warming up before doing floor work. Bad dancer. No cookie.
Oh, and in case anybody's wondering, being happy can make you look thinner. I had several people ask me this weekend if I'd lost weight since last year. I'm actually about ten pounds up, thanks. But apparently love and joy make me look slim. Hurray!
