Eagle: owned
Delivered "Eagle AKA Garurasana" posture today and had *way* too much fun in the process. Is there such a thing, you may ask? Well, while some students may acquire the reputation of being perfectionists, other of being slackers, I may just be the one who can't stop grinning, and I suppose some people may find that contrived and boring after the 15th or 16th posture clinic. Perhaps it comes from being in Toastgeeks for the past couple of years: when I corpse in front of an audience these days, I tend to let out a loud cackle and shout "Rewind! Let's try that again!" What's wonderful is how quickly the nerves vanish, even if (as I did yesterday), I sputter and flail about for words. Also, it may be a small subset, but perhaps there's an opening for middle-aged court jesters in the Victoria area studios. Worth a shot, no?

You absolutely crack me up. I want to be your friend. I was in the same posture clinic category as you - I just couldn't get over how much fun I was having (though the novelty DOES eventually wear off). After a couple weeks, they gave me "don't smile" as homework and it was the hardest homework EVER!!
ReplyDeleteWhy would anyone give "don't smile" homework? God, if I could find something that made me grin--other than the sight of Hane delivering a posture, successfully or not--I would make damn good use of those muscles.
ReplyDeleteFor that crack, Vinnie, you'd better make damned good use of your leg muscles in a far, far away direction.
ReplyDeleteTheDancingJ, thank you! I want to be your friend, too, as a vacancy has recently come up in the ranks (r.i.p. Lorraine).
