Day One: Intimacy Challenge

I decided to go to a yoga class to reawaken my chakras which I hear can lead to good intimacy. It felt good. My self-discovery question of the day: "Why do I not go to yoga more often when it makes me feel so good?"
My yoga teacher, an adorable handsome poptart of a young man, was photographed in this position for being associated with the Best Yoga Place of Ottawa. Fortunately, he didn't make us do that position.
The yoga was followed by a drinking session with the ESIs. I expressed a lot of feelings to them, but they didn't seem to notice, the unfeeling bastards.
Today when I was thinking about intimacy, I had a flashback of the time when the 5M's rabid posse came after us, accusing us of being glib, self-righteous assholes (or something to that effect). I think what they were trying to say was that we weren't writing enough about intimacy.

Aggie...this is a good start. But I'd like to see a little bit more detail in the way of personal tidbits about intimacy. So, for example: let's hear how conversation (and anything else)goes with "that handsome poptart of a young man," and also, is it the yoga, or the poptart, that makes you feel so good?

Oh, Aggie, my dear, you are a sensitive one.

And even if I didn't say anything, your cheery post-yoga glow last night was a heart-warming sight.

Made me think about taking up work in the restaurant industry, it did.

Hi Aggie, any thoughts in answer to your question? What exactly is the connection to my so-called rabid posse? Maybe it has to do with how you respond to intimacy. Maybe you don't do yoga because of that. What do you think?

Oh no, Aggie. I feel for you. How are you going to do this?
Good luck. And remember, there are no intimacy failures, only learning experiences.
So, how did it feel to be callously treated last night, as evidenced in the meetings: "Hello? Sitting right here? . . . "
And come to think about it, how does it feel to have a group of male bloggers following your possible chakra development?

I'm gonna surmise, Conch, that the feelings are somehow tied to those that come from having been ditched by the gender ally who couldashouldawoulda had her back at the Emergency Meeting, but who phoned in her performance, instead...
