Hip Hop Yoga?

I decided to mix my dynamic flow up with a little bit of Rhianna and a tad bit of Usher, Beyonce and some Britney Spears. I even threw a couple of songs in from the Slumdog Millionaire soundtrack. I moved through the poses much faster than I normally do but this didn't take away from my practice at all...although there were several moments I couldn't help myself and had to break it down a few times, especially when Britney's Shattered Glass blasted through my iPod. Tadashi and I seem to be fairing well. He hasn't said or done anything at this point to turn me off completely and apparently I haven't either. I am not placing all of my eggs in one basket just yet, though. I DID check the scale on Monday and see that I have dropped an additional 3 pounds. Let's see what happens next week. (Check out the pose of the day, which happens to be one of my favorite poses for relaxation and gives my back a great stretch!)

It's 4:00 am...what am I thinking?

For the past month or so I've had this internal alarm clock going off at exactly 2:30am, forcing me to log onto my face book page and check on my Farmville and Cafeworld and Twitter account because what else can I do at that time? Obviously, this is one of those days. I am thinking it is because I haven't devoted any amount of time to yoga in more than a week nor have I done any other real physical activity beyond going to/from the car, ect. As far as the dating scene goes, Tadashi is still there but my eyes are open to whatever possibilities await me and so far, the pickings are quite slim. It looks like Tadashi will be the eventual winner. I've attached a chart of yoga poses, hopefully, they will inspire both of us to get back into the grove.

The Day of Calm AKA 12-20-2009

As you'll notice I've been in and out and for good reason, too. I met someone and for a split second thought 'JUST MAYBE' but then several things became VERY clear--1) He took me to his house and I swear I felt like I was Neicy Nash stepping inside of a house on the show Clean House. The killer part of it all is the previous night he said he'd spent the ENTIRE day cleaning! Seriously? 2) The next day I call him and tell him I'll be ready in 20 minutes to go to the Mall of America. He tells me he's so hungry that he's on his way--which is fine because it should take him roughly 15-20 minutes to get to my hotel. He arrives to my hotel looking exactly like he just rolled out of bed...sleep on his face, the whole 9...and tells me he's so hungry he just barely brushed his teeth...and then we drive to the freaking Mall of America. Did I mention that this place is huge? Do I have to? So by now you understand that we have spent no less than 7-8 hours there and the entire time I can't shake the fact that this dude hasn't had a shower nor has he washed his face and don't even think of asking for a bite of my fish tacos! (He did and can you believe he expected a kiss goodnight as he dropped me off at my hotel? Again, seriously?) Anyway, I wait to get back to the safety of my city...after all MN is known as the state of 10,000 lakes before I make it clear I have no interest in his video game addicted hygiene phobia self and move on, alas, to Tadashi...we shall see how this saga unfolds. Meanwhile, I have just completed a wonderful mind altering 20 minute session of fun yoga. What, you ask, is fun yoga? Fun yoga is where you are doing yoga poses but instead of being wrapped up in the seriousness of what you're doing, you're reflecting on the most comedic moments in your life...or others lives...try it and let me know how you like it.

Halloween

So, I was stuck on jury duty for awhile but I'm back now! Here's the quickie: Slim N Six ROCKS! The guy Steve? Hmm, his voice is just a bit too feminine for me. I don't doubt his masculinity per se, but it's really difficult for me to constantly hear his voice. And "S" is SO out of the picture...yes, you've heard me say it before but this time is for real. I think I need to be totally single for a minute...not focusing so much on guys right now. I am thinking to just perfect my ultimate body and enjoy my life right now. If 'the one' comes along perfect, if not...that would be so uncool. We shall see.

Love and Charms,

B-DAY

So, of the 40 I was aiming for 5 have been lost...an old flame has come back suddenly looking for "friendship" "S" and I either had a major break through last night or a major blow to our very own situation...and me and R are well, I don't know. He tells me he has to fly out to India...on my birthday, but changes the flight to the next day, which is cool. I come home and there is a BEAUTIFUL set of stargazer lillies waiting for me. (My favorite) as well as other gifts...he knows what to do to keep me THERE. No, it wasn't the fact he gave gifts, just the TYPE of gifts...personal and thoughtful, proof he's paid attention all these years. Whatever to do?

One Prospect...

So, I have a very valid reason for not giving you this update sooner, rather than later...there is a potential mate. Oh and since I've blogged, I've had 3 potentials: one was quickly shot down, the second took a day or so and I shot the 3rd one down today. First, back up, I had one of the most irritating blind meetings ever. I told him to meet me at a Half Price Book Store and we would go from there. He's like, 'Come over' umm what? We meet up and instantly, I feel ready to vomit due to the overwhelming smell of cigarettes and beer. He tells me he had a few beers to relax after work...."how many beers exactly" I asked. "Six" WOW...what can I say? He's trying to kiss me and tell me he wants me to come to his house blah blah and did I mention the picture posted on his profile must have been 17 years old? Okay, maybe not 17 but probably 5!

On to this new guy....details will come soon. Maybe I will have something to say this weekend...and in the meantime, yes, I am scheduled to see "S" tomorrow just for...coffee.

Love and Light,

ACS

So Kill Me!

During this brief hiatus, I have faithfully done my yoga, walking AND searching. I've discovered a lot about, well, moi! Okay, so "S" totally ticked me off and was advised that the "friendship" wouldn't continue from my end...instead of jumping at the chance to beg for my forgivness, he allows not 1, not 2 but 4 days to go by without communicating with me. Of course during this time not only was the number deleted from my phone, BUT also removed from my Sim card, so you know I was serious, right? Anyway, I get the text asking if I'm no longer communicating and of course, yours truly is cool as a cucumber...my feels regarding our friendship have officially changed from 'OMG, this is great' to 'Yea, whatever'...and the person I feel is my forever forever, is trying to get back in good graces with me....hence the beautiful Italian photo. I hope you can now see why it's been a few days, okay weeks, since I've blogged...don't judge me!

Love and Light,
