I haven't been blogging very much lately, and it's not because I'm still chewing on my robbery, no. I'm totally over that. All the people who wrote me checks, wrote me new ones (god, I love my people so much!) so I was able to make my rent, and life goes on. The cops? What … Continue reading The Day after Groundhog Day

An Open Letter To Winter
Dear Winter, It's over. I'm breaking up with you. I thought I could build a relationship when you first came on the scene back in November, but now I see that our core values simply do not align. You promised long days and nights of introspection, deep couches, cozy fires, red wine and chocolate. You … Continue reading An Open Letter To Winter
Robbed
My studio got robbed on Friday night during the Happy Hour yoga class. The thieves took about $1300.00 in cash and checks. I feel nauseous as I write this. And stupid for leaving that little green purse (not a bank bag) with my month’s income on my desk, but I was teaching class in the … Continue reading Robbed
How My Resolutions Advance My Pilgrimage
How is drinking more water going to advance me on my journey? The answer: My lack of sufficient hydration is starting to cause minor break-downs. In a word, I itch. I have to stop and itch. My ears itch. My skin itches. And every time I have to stop and itch, I have take my … Continue reading How My Resolutions Advance My Pilgrimage

Feliz Ano Nuevo!
Hola! And much gratitude to my commenting readers for talking me down from the ledge, where I teetered precipitously for a few days on the verge of jumping to my death into the 365 Day WordPress Blog Challenge. Whew. Now that I am back inside, sitting on my bed, dizzy, nauseous but alive, and (hopefully) … Continue reading Feliz Ano Nuevo!
Trying to Decide…
I just got an email from the poobahs at WordPress. They are challenging bloggers who use this platform to commit to blogging every day in 2011. I am sorely tempted... Confession: I get totally STOKED around New Years. I am a hopeless resolution maker. I love to make resolutions and then buy tracking equipment: calendars, … Continue reading Trying to Decide…
Thinking About New Year’s Resolutions
And it's not even Christmas. But I saw this on Facebook this morning and I think I will try to do all 101 of these things this year. (Doing so might also give me some tasty blog post "food.") Check it: 101 Revolutionary Ways to Be Healthy | RevolutionaryAct.com. One of the things I would … Continue reading Thinking About New Year’s Resolutions
Happy Solstice
So clearly, the #Reverb10 thing is not working out. I do get the prompt everyday via email, and I dutifully paste it into 750 Words and then proceed to write whatever is really and truly on my mind, which usually has nothing to do with the prompt. (750 words, if I haven't mentioned it before, … Continue reading Happy Solstice
