I went to yoga today for the first time in about a year. I will not likely be able to move tomorrow. I bought a 5-class pass with the hope of getting back into it. I can't be bent over a sewing machine all the time. That is just not healthy.
What I enjoyed most about the class were the adjustments. I love adjustments! You know, when they come over and shove your hip in one direction and your shoulder in the other direction. Nice. I thanked my teacher (an adorable little poptart of a yogi) for every single one of his adjustments -- and there were a lot.
What I find amusing about yoga is the bizarre humour that is only funny to a few yoga freaks. At the beginning of the class, the teacher said something funny, and everyone laughed except me. The punchline was Vinyasa. I had forgotten what fucking Vinyasa was because I hadn't been to yoga for a while.
I followed up the yoga with a full Korean meal, and have had my head on my desk for most of the afternoon.

I'm changing my name to Eigga
For those of you who haven't heard this yet, I've decided to give up my worldly possessions for a year, live off my friends, and travel to exotic places. When I announced this to a family member, his response was, "That's what Jane Siberry is doing." Since Jane and I seem to be on the same....uh... journey (ie. creative/spiritual piece!), I decided to do some internet research on her. First, I discovered that Jane has changed her name to ISSA. When I read what Jane/Issa has been up to, I got the feeling that she's been to a few yoga classes too many.
Anyhow, in the spirit of Jane/Issa, I'm changing my name to Eigga (Aggie spelled backwards).
p.s. I got confused about a link on her website called Fridge. Can someone explain this to me, please. Here is what it says when you click on this link:
