reveling.

this amazing, wonderful thing has happened. i decided to make my mantra "less selfish, more loving", to focus on others rather than me, me, me all day. and guess what...??? it actually makes me feel a whole lot better about my life! amazing, wonderful, right?

i made scones this weekend & now they are gone (which is kind of a relief because then i won't be tempted to eat them right before bed any more)
& this is the last week of classes - praise the LORD!
& also, it is yoga day. (which is my favorite day)

speaking of... would you like to hear the story of my yoga pants? yes? ok.

jas & i went to this awful "blues" place one night with a friend of his. a washed up 40's something group of guys thinking they were still 19 played green day cover songs & the three of us comprised the majority of the audience. awful.
one of the guitarists who was apparently getting bored or something started stopping by our table to chat on the way to the bar & kept asking if i wanted to come up & sing with them. i shook my head, no way, jose. but, my darling husband thought he would try & help the poor guy out, offering his wife as a sacrifice of sorts. so, he told the guitarist...
"you know, she does have her yoga pants on tonight and she's really flexible. she would probably love to get up there and dance with you guys."

next thing, the guitarist is magically back on stage asking for "christina. christina? are you still out there? oh, there she is! everybody help me out, i've just gotten word she has her yoga pants on and is really flexible, let's see her dance!"

so, this is where the story ends. because i looked down at the table, completely ignoring mr. guitarist, and my husband, and my husband's friend, and the other 6 people in the audience... who were all laughing, cheering & waiting for me to get up on stage.
and as anticlimactic as it may be... there was no way i was getting up there. especially in my yoga pants. jeez louise.
