Neophyte yoga practitioner unable to simply pick up legos anymore without her body forcing her to rethink alignment

See, I’m being nice and polite and not writing about it constantly, but I’m 21 days into the yoga now and it’s interesting. Others in better shape would be soaring along but I’ve got years of bad desk habits that the yoga is first dealing with. At this point, Marty says I look secure, like…

I laughed from the very first line

The title says it all. Gore Vidal Speaks Seriously Ill of the Dead. I laughed. And I laughed. Which was a nice balance for the cry I had the other day, from which I don’t feel much recovered.

"Here, Kitty Kitty!"

Here Kitty! Kitty! Copyright H.o.p. 2008 What fun. Am listening to Marc Gunn’s Irish and Celtic podcast. That’s fun as well. Loading music onto the iPod for the trip. I lost my bagpipe CD. I need to find some bagpipe music. Yes, I love bagpipes. Marty does not. He finds them irritating. I used to…

This beginner at yoga so far likes Elsie's podcasts the best

So, I’m on my 16th day of yoga and for the past 11 days I’ve been using Elsie Escobar’s yoga podcasts. When I first came upon Elsie’s website I wasn’t sure what to think and actually, the first time, passed it by without downloading anything. She seemed too personable and I didn’t quite trust that.…

So we got slammed by an EF2 tornado just a mile or so from here last night. The first ever tornado to hit downtown Atlanta. No damage to our neighborhood but this map shows just how much of the downtown area, into Cabbagetown, was hit. As it turns out there was no tornado warning issued…
