My Next Photo Shoot
So on Friday I emailed my doctor to tell him about my practice and, for explanatory purposes, like I do on my blog, I linked to pictures either of me or ashtanga.info to explain what I was talking about. Today my doctor asked me to take pictures of myself post-op in yoga poses... Won't be very easy to take a self-portrait in Mari D :)
Tonight, rather than doing anything having to do with being a geek, I am hanging out in my hotel room just me... I had the yoga mat out for a few minutes earlier, had room service and am going through all the conference materials... The 101 is still blazing out there :)

The Roar of the 101
So my totally expensive hotel room is literally on top of the 101 and the 101, my friends, never sounds like anything less than a 747 at the top of the runway. Melatonin, earplugs and pillows did absolutely nothing to assist in sleep so when the alarm went off at 6am I thought "Screw this, there's no way I can practice." So I fumbled in bed a bit more then headed for PDC... for which I was mistakenly two hours early for... I could have practiced afterall. We got to sit through the power outage in LA today. We were assured that it was not a terrorist attack (was that supposed to make us feel better I wonder?). I always mark the "vegetarian" box on my registration because sometimes the regular food is horrible and you have to have registered for a veg meal... so for lunch, know what the veg meal was, a single piece of lettuce with a single piece of soy bacon and a single tomato.... by the time I got here to the hotel I thought I would pass out from lack of nutrients (because all the other food is Milky Ways and HoHos). My idea of practicing this evening quickly went out the door as I sit here willing myself to make it to 8pm at least.... practice in the morning...this I promise myself.
