it was meant to be

all day i was psyched about going to yoga tonight. i even bought my very own yoga mat! i've also been developing pain in my feet which i suspect to be PF, so i had even more reason to look forward to the stretching of my tight, malfunctioning muscles.

so i get to class, roll out the new mat. MH rolls in late, of course. but at least he showed up, which is more than i can say for the instructor.

as the minutes ticked by i was trying not to fume because well, i'm in yoga and we're supposed to be patient and shit like that. but then the other people in class started to annoy me. one chick suggested someone warm up the class. one dude was doing his own thing, most likely trying to show off. this other chick was talking on her cell phone.....

finally i got up, put on my flip flops and headed for the front desk. they had no idea where she was or what was going on. eventually MH and i left.

for the movies. this time evan almighty. and dinner afterwards. where i ate a huge ass bonzai burger, with fries and a hefewezien.

did i mention that part of my 5 week challenge was to not drink alcohol or eat fried food?

*sigh*

but i will say this: it was the most satisfying meal i've had in a long time. it hit the spot so much i don't even regret it. something deep in my belly NEEDED that juicy burger! and we all know runners need carbs.

and as for my odd feet pain, i'm laying off running for a week and doing some experimentation with my work shoes. i think the culprit for my injuries lately stem more from that than my actual running. so i'll be spinning and swimming my little heart out for the next week. and hopefully doing more freakin' yoga!

I once had that happen in a spin class -- the instructor never showed. It sucked. Too bad you missed out on some super stretchiness, but at least you had a good movie and dinner.

Bummer on the yoga class, at least you got in a good dinner and a drink ;D

You'll have to get some stud to rub your feet for you hehe. Hope that foot pain clears up!
