Whew.

Today was a much, much better day. I had some sleep, I got some things done, I napped-- I take after my cats, I swear. But after picking Ryan up at the bus stop, Craig and Angela and Ryan and I all went into Chinatown, parked, and wandered until we saw a restaurant at random that we liked. Just for the record? The Golden Phoenix at 913-911 Arch is lovely. Keep in mind. The original idea was to grab food while I sketched, but in the end, we ate like pigs, and after we were done, I did a very fast but nonetheless rather decent costume sketch of what Angela's gown will look like. It'll be the first ever MayFaire Moon Elizabethan gown, so I'm rather excited about it. She has some great fabric in browns and golds. Quite yummy.

There is, at last, an abundance of food in my house. Even better, most of it is less-than-horrific for my overall health. I make no promises about the bleu cheese. Best of all, I finally started working out with Christen, my personal trainer, on Tuesday. She kicked my ass. Well, actually, she kicked my triceps. My first-ever time with yoga-- oh, G-d. Downward-Facing Dog can kiss my ass. How ironic.

In other news, I'm still, I find, working through a lot of stuff I really wish to fuck I were just over. But some kinds of pain are like slow-moving toxins: you can't force them out any faster than they want to go, and they're in deep.

Or it could just be that I'm an idiot.

see, I love yoga! I really really need to start doing it again. IE, I need to kick my own ass. Since I'm not nearly as flexible as I was.

Personally, I think the downward facing dog is a great one ;) you do have to watch the boobs... but after awhile, you can bend far enough that its no longer a problem!

I have issues with downward-facing dog, but that's cause of the car accident I had a few years ago. My shoulders and upper arms are weak and shake a lot. :( Which sucks because I love inverted positions.

Speaking of Elizabethan gowns...have you SEEN The still shots from Elizabeth: The Golden Age?? I spent all morning oggling the shots on IMDB. The costumes are breath-taking.

Yoga is from the devil.

Can't wait to see you. Am I bringing the box? I *am* bringing your gift from Venice (yes, that would be a year and a half ago) and I'm bringing both the Ben and the Bink.

Can't wait to see your latest work. :)
