Nia Update

Did not go to Nia Tuesday night because I felt like a truck had hit me and I was utterly drained of energy. Went to bed at 8pm, fell asleep immediately.

I did go last night and enjoyed it, even though I'm once again sore all over this morning.

Last night it became clear that I really do need to get back to doing yoga. I was utterly unable to be loose in my shoulders and hips. Part of it was long years of habitual Queen of Swords physical restraint (dignity!), but part of it was that those muscles simply were not loose enough to shimmy and shake. Need to fix that.

I've also bought a couple of belly dance DVD's that I want to start working with this weekend. I've always wanted to learn belly dance, and I think that I'm starting to loosen up enough mentally to make a go of it. I'm certain that practicing belly dance in the privacy of my living room will loosen me up on both the physical and mental levels.

Ballroom dance class tonight!

I Miss QoS

Every so often I think wistfully of my QoS identity.

I miss the quick and easy username. I miss the image of the card (see userpic).
I miss the specificity of her.

I was right to release her as a primary identity. I needed to grow beyond that single aspect of my self being so central.

She's still a part of me, but I miss being so close to her.

Best Friends Beyond All Borders

This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. . .
