who needs a therapist when you have hot yoga

I crave chocolate not the heartache. I crave a really yummy martini but certainly not the hangover. And just like that I crave a fit body and not the workout to get it. But not anymore my friends! Just like food is therapy for my heart, hot yoga has become THE therapy I need for my mind and body. Cheesy I know, but I am addicted to hot yoga. Oh yes, HOT yoga. Regular yoga just doesn't cut it, the intensity isn't the same without the sauna. Hot yoga is the new big deal, you work out for an hour and half, sweat three pounds of water, and it feels like the most intense workout session of your life! L-O-V-E it! One week down, a lifetime to go... ;)

the good: mind, body, and soul unit to form one nice tight ass
the bad: if you take a class with a fanatic instructor... I pity u. I actually cried after I had that experience and had a 24hr headache. But really, it was the best workout of my life. Know your level before you go! :)
the cringeworthy opps: DO NOT forget the speed stick

makes you think

I was in NYC when I stepped into THINK COFFEE. I asked the Barista for a tall drip. He answered back asking "A what?" Politely I repeat myself only to get an even louder and more annoyed version of his original question. This leads me to yell and carefully mouth, "I said, A T-A-L-L D-R-I-P." Rolling his eyes, the annoyed Barista realizes there's a line behind me and only then does he ask,"What SIZE is 'tall'?" Finally I get it and thoughtfully yet with a hint of irritation i reply, "A 12oz drip." Thankfully the java was great.

Very clever.


the good: think coffee's coffee and starbuck's branding
the bad: ny's know-it-all attitude
the cringeworthy opps: i probably should have caught on a lot sooner...
