angelak2 of my neighbors showed up to class. In fact, I think they've been showing up on the 1 week intro all week and I was on the other side of the room.
Said WaMu Employee neighbor was not far away from me. I keep bumping into that girl.
They told me that "you guys are the only ones we see," in our building. It's true. I said, "yeah, guess we have some shut ins in our building, eh?" So true.
It was actually kind of fun that they showed up. They were the n00bs I saw from afar wearing long sleeved shirts. They did it agaiN!? wtf.
Whatever their Will is. Mine is definitely not more clothes in a 105-110 hot, humid room. I love the feel of bare skin in that environment. I stopped wearing pants (hah) long ago because I realized it helped my practice.
I won't switch back to shirts or pants. (Actually I never wore a shirt to class.) I prefer a bra crop-top and shorts.
Sides. My legs are actually improving on the visual side. I like this. I've never been able to see any form of muscle definition in my legs. Sure, they've been strong... but not like _ hey look, I can see my muscle! That was always my rockin upper body, see.
No, not trying to be arrogant. I just try and appreciate my assets, lol. We spend a lot of time tearing ourselves apart at times in this culture (some of us) and I really do enjoy reminding myself that - HEY! My hard work shows.
SOooo. the neighbor girls in the honkeysuckle unit (floor plan name) said hello. Lisa and Loan. Loan the WaMU emp. Yes. She's Asian (and is cute with her also Asian bf, I found them adorable immediately upon spotting them smoking on their porch together). I could not separate her Asianness and her name being Loan, so I knew it was the same chick. Blahbalbah.
Needless to say, I hope to get some decent rest and wake up maybe feeling a little less headcoldy. It is not full fledged as bad as Jim's cold, but it is sort of taking the edge out of my energy. I wanted to CT sometime this week, and it is just going to have stick with Yoga for workouts because crap. I'm beat.
And very mindful, easy if I must Yoga practice days. Until I beat this thing. Which Jim says will be soon.
Oh. My knees after 48 hrs of 20 minute Gilman Blvd run (and 10 min warmup, 10 min cooldown, intensive stretching and Yoga that night) are doing just dandy!!!!!!!
I am not overly hopeful, but a smidgen. I'd like to go again, but it may have to wait till Saturday with this headcold business. That wouldn't break my heart one bit. More rest? Not at all bad for these tendons! Me and the tendons are going to become better friends this time around. Ima saying, "Lookie, here tendons. We're pals. Really. I'm on the same team. Put-her here."
I am excited that firstly, I am able to run at all. Secondly, I have switched it to the outdoors. Treadmills are poo and not my gig.
Well, occasional.
Tomorrow afternoon I have my next A-doc appointment. This also makes me happy.
Sooo. Another 20 minuter is scheduled soon. Just not sure when. It is based on the rest of my body. So excited! Standing hurts so very much less this week. My mom said she noticed that my tiny wrinkles in my forehead have abated, and that I seem more cheerful. I might also add that my mom is one of the best people ever. And so is my dad.
DIGRESSION: Could it be that a bit of ease on the pain takes away the ass-crabby Angela? I think so. I really do.
Here's to patience and continuing a good relationship with the knees. I am determined to keep on waiting this out and having faith that my dreams, and my hobbies - are not really any further away than they need to be.
