Saturday morning and random, caffeine induced thoughts and ideas...

It's a perfect day when you wake up casually at 8:49am, brew up your first pot of coffee and jump on the net only to be delighted by visions that just *speak* to you as if they had been awaiting your arrival. Case in point, my first clicked delight this morning was finding a very close bikram studio to my house - huzzah ! It's been several years since I have attended a class, but something I would love to do again - soon. I'm nervous about being so out of practice that I feel I should throw in a disc and do a little at home before I embarrass myself in front of the masses. Perhaps that's just silly, but something I think about. Their intro special is $29 for one month unlimited ! That seems like quite the deal.

The second exciting discovery was Technorati's Top 100 Blogs which led me to Joystiq, a fantastic gaming blog which was screaming to my inner fan-grrl. We've been discussing forming a guild on the horde server - Grimly Fiendish. How great of a name is that for a roving band of dead (or beautiful, as the case may be for belfs) thugs ? And plus, it pays homage to one of my most favorite bands of all times, The Damned. Many won't agree, but Phantasmagoria is possibly my favorite Damned album. I find it dark and yummy and frankly, music to my ears.

Back to yoga and keeping my thoughts and energy revolving back there. They have the poses on their site and I'm inspired enough to post them here where I will look at them often:

1. Standing Deep Breathing

2. Half Moon Pose

3. Awkward Pose

4. Eagle Pose

5. Standing Head To Knee Pose

6. Standing Bow Pulling Pose

7. Balancing Stick

8. Balancing Separate Leg Stretching
9. Triangle Pose

10. Standing Separate Leg Head To Knee Pose

11. Tree Pose

12. Toe Stand Pose

13. Dead Body Pose

14. Wind Removing Pose

15. Sit-up

16. Cobra Pose
17. Locust Pose

18. Full Locust Pose

19. Bow Pose

20. Fixed Firm Pose

21. Half Tortoise Pose

22. Camel Pose

23. Rabbit Pose

24. Separate Leg Stretching Pose

25. Spine Twisting Pose

26. Blowing In Firm Pose

This is funny, but I always enjoyed the mystery of what pose would be next when I was new to the practice. Since then, I've forgotten the list and what it entails, so it will be somewhat new and exciting again. I'll work on refamiliarizing myself though.

So, that's the thought process so far on this Saturday morning. Zen, blogs, gaming and music. All things that get this girl's attention.
