So, this weekend, my friends and I went camping. You know, strap 50 pounds to your back and hike a couple miles through the woods so you can sit on damp ground and get mosquito bites and smoke in your eyes. It was surprisingly excellent. There was only one point where I actually thought "If Kyle (who organized the trip) were next to me, I'd cheerfully push him off this cliff). I'm very afraid of heights and had a minor paralysis/panic attack on a bit of fairly sheer rock face. But now my quads hate me.
Which is why today I went to tumbling class at the Lava studio in Brooklyn. 105 minutes of stretching, conditioning, handstands, rolls and cartwheels. Now my back, shoulders and arms hate me too. I must be a genius. I'm going again next week. But I may not make it to the trapeze class there tomorrow. First, I may be too sore, second, it takes almost 2 hours each way to get there.
For your amusement: last week, on the way to visit my CT house (where we will hopefully be living starting in September) Elias and I came up with DA RULES. 10 important commandments for being a decent and happy human.
1) Try not to kill.
2) Love yourself (but not too much).
3) Some things are your fault (but not everything).
4) Learn from your mistakes.
5) Be nice.
6) Use your body.
7) Use your brain.
8) Relax. Have fun.
9) Contribute.
10) F the Cookie, and the Rules.
I'm feeling unproductive. Tomorrow, more laundry, sewing, art, job apps, etc. Less TV. I swear. I'm doing a bad job on my health kick. I'll spare you the emo-ness that is the "reason" why.
