More catching up

Just got out of Friday's led primary series class feeling refreshed. It is a little strange walking out of the shala and just kind of standing there now that Beg is gone. Used to be that everyone would gather for a post-practice coconut. Right where the truck used to be, there is a framed portrait of the man along with many flower garlands. I didn't usually stick around for a coconut this time around because I didn't really have any interest in talking about my practice in that sideways comment sort of way, but it was always nice to share a smile with Beg on my way home. I hope this benefit dinner tonight raises a good amount of money to help his family...

Practice was practice. What can I say? I've got some things that are good and some that aren't, some things that are fun and some that aren't, and so on. I got kicked in the head by the person in front of me--that was fun. No apologies either. This guy is now working on third series. Just to put it out there again--the ability to do more advanced postures does not a good person make. But hey, it happens. I'm just glad that a) there was no poop on his foot and b) the point of impact was not my eyes, teeth, or nose.

I'm not sure what's happening for tomorrow's supposed safari trip. Our roommies said they had it all planned out, but they just mentioned the prospect of ditching us for some rumored waves on the west coast. Me and the bf can obviously make our own way, but it would be nice for someone else to plan everything and I guess they are pretty fun to hang out with...I guess. Today we've got to sort that one out.

All in all, things are good, I'm happy and healthy, India is fabulous/terrible India, and I'm just taking it one masala'd little day at a time.

Some interesting youtube videos with my friend, Anne:








Yeah roommates just got home and are like "we're going to the coast...so are you guys still going on safari?" Um thanks guys you said you were planning everything...

Well I guess this opens up the opportunity for us to sort something out for ourselves. I think that situations like these are when fun things happen...

  1. My practice was super hard today; every breath an effort. I’m still chugging along in Primary, but not kicking anyone in the head without apologizing.
