Charmed, not bendy

Monday morning, I went to turn on the Today Show to watch over my cereal and coffee. However, the channel husband left it on the night before just happened to be playing Charmed. I haven't watched that show in years, and after watching curiously Monday morning, I am now addicted to watching it over my breakfast. I never succumb to watching tv during the writing day, but Charmed is so magically enticing!

Speaking of which, my yoga class has turned out to be anything but magic. My previous yoga class really helped alleviate the pain in my hip, but this class actually seems to aggravate it. It's much slower yoga, and we hold poses for minutes at a time, which makes my joints stiff. The other class was much more athletically challenging and we moved fluidly--but quickly--through the poses. I also usually end up under the wall clock, so I have to stare up at it watching how slowly the hands move through the minutes as I hold my pose. I am so not Zen. Charlie Crewes would be ashamed. ;)

Productivity, of a sort...

Nah, the writing is still floundering around, flopping helplessly in my head, HOWEVER, I did something I am proud of today. I signed up for a yoga class for this fall. This may not sound like a big deal, but it's a HUGE deal for me since fitness classes scare me - I have to meet/interact with people I don't know, while trying to feign coordination. *shudders* However, I'm working to get back into a healthy routine, and I took yoga years ago and it did wonders for my body. (What self-respecting 26 year old has a bum hip? Oh yes, that would be me, and it started at the ripe old age of 20.) Plus, I could really use a lesson in controlling stress and yoga is great for that. A mind/body makeover could do wonders for my writing--fingers crossed--I just have to drag myself kicking and screaming to that first class in two weeks without having a panic attack. I've already paid the money though and can't get a refund, so wish me luck! I'm sure I'll be here in no time:
