moments of truth

while we were setting our yoga mats out and getting ready for our big day with noah maze, a sweet girl that I see on a fairly regular basis came over to me while I was gabbing with a few of my yogi friends….when I paused from the conversation I was having, she looked at me and laughingly said, “Jennifer, every time I see you you’re talking about a different guy. You must have tons of boyfriends.”

I sheepishly grinned and replied, “I have zero boyfriends, but lots of almost lovers. And you?”

She smiled, “oh, I’m married. Have fun while you can!”

“Oh, I am!” I shamelessly said. “I’ve been doing this for years!”J

 (Right, Eric?)

(Right, boo boo!)

There have been several “moments of truth” that I’ve thought about and learned this weekend.

moment of truth #1

i both loathe and love yoga workshops. they take every ounce of energy I can muster up. I swear after each one that I will never do it again, and yet, I’m usually the first to sign up for them.

moment of truth #2

 i rarely am attracted to men that do yoga.

moment of truth #3
i have completely accepted the fact that there are certain yoga poses i'll never be able to do. and i am more than okay with that. 

moment of truth #4

unless you work, go to school at, or frequently visit UMC or take yoga at Butterfly or attend AA meetings, I probably will not see you until December.

moment of truth #5

i would love more than anything to put a sign on the outside of my house that says “do not disturb” and be alone all week.

moment of truth #6

my sweet friend, Tara, called to tell me I’m the busiest person she knows. That’s saying something coming from the busiest person I know;)

moment of truth #7

i have had zero chocolate or processed food in over a week.

moment of truth #8

i realized one day this week that no one calls me by my first name. every single person in my life has their own pet name for me. this is both endearing and odd.

moment of truth #9

i did over 12 hours of yoga this weekend. to say i'm sore and tired is an understatement. 

moment of truth #10

i tear up time i hear Bob Dylan's "Don't think twice, it's all right". 

this has always been one of my favorite little chunks of truth…
