Go With the Flow
Today got off to a much better start than yesterday did. I decided to do my best to keep my spirits up and what better way than with my favorite to-go breakfast: Wawa!
And for the curious car types, I drive a manual 2007 Hyundai Accent hatchback. 
Work was uneventful but productive and I managed to get home at a decent hour. The weather shifted a little cooler than I am preferring, but no biggie. I’m sure we’ll all be complaining about the heat & humidity in a couple months. I was especially excited to be heading to Hotbox again for tonight’s last class. My yoga wardrobe is incoherent and kind of unmatched, but I like it. Today I busted out of a new top from MPG and the hatha pants from Lucy.
Front, side, and back. The tank is made from a sweat-wicking material and I love that it is loose-fitting. Practice tonight was nothing short of amazing, and we did a lot of good vinyasa flows and breathing. Brad is probably my favorite instructor at that place and I am very excited for the special Red Hot Chili Peppers themed class this weekend! You also can now see that I am not lying when I saw I HAVE NO ASS. Sad face. Also please excuse the gross floor. It’s from when the roof was leaking and the room is scheduled for a makeover. Oy!
The class was just what I needed to de-stress from yesterday’s madness. I felt so much more focused and was able to really get into the breathing. One thing I need to work on is crow pose. I cannot for the life of me get it. I either lack the upper arm strength, or it’s not that and I am just a doofus at figuring out the balance. Goal for the next month or so!
In sporting news! The Philles DESTROYED the Marlins and I found out today that Hunter Pence’s walk-off song is Skrillex’s Breakin’ A Sweat off Bangarang (GREAT album). I rocked it on my way back from yoga tonight.
He might have just become my favorite Phillies player, or a close second behind Cliff Lee. <3 The Flyers tied it up and are heading into overtime. Fingers crossed they come out with the win. The Sixers won and it’d be a nice Philadelphia Victory Trifecta, eh?
So that was my Wednesday. Nothing too dramatic and just a lot of going with the flow. I like days like that.
Props if you know where the post title comes from, btw.

Oo, i love that top. Never heard of the brand. I’m checking out the website now!
They didn’t have the top on their site, I got it from a flash sale. BUT I ordered a different top I liked. It already shipped, too!
I busted out some yoga today for the first time in a long time…and man, it helped relieve a lot of tension that’s been built up in my shoulders from this past month.
And Skrillex? FABULOUS!!! Bangarang is perfect for when you’re feeling all RAWR!!!!
So glad you had a better day. (And no, I’m not stalking you…I’m just REALLY catching up on my blog reading. Haha.)
Ahahaha stalk away!
DONT LAUGH, but this 43 year old covets yer arse
LOL thanks! It used to be slightly more ample, but it seems years ago when I dropped like 30lbs that was the first thing to go. Time for tons of squats!!
Crow pose is something I want to work on as well. When I was doing dvd yoga a little more regularly, I got it a few times. But that was two years ago…
I see other people do it and am just confused. One day hopefully!
I would love to do yoga sometime. I think it will help elievate stress for sure. I love the purple tank!
You should come to Hotbox with me sometime! I think a drop-in class is only $14. Plus, if we go when it’s a bit warmer we can get froyo at Whirled Peace after!
Cute top. And I sure miss having a standard….
You look like a tiny little thing. I love the shirt. And the title “Go with the Flow” is just too used, it’s impossible to guess where it’s from. But I’ll just assume it was quoted from a jellyfish.
It’s my favorite Queens of the Stone Age song.
mr. pence’s stance in the box amuses me greatly! <3 skrillex
Everything about him amuses me, haha!
I’m glad your day was better – and I love that top!
I wish they had it online and in other colors.
Damn girl you so skinny. Jealous. Probably because you choose the healthy sizzli while I go for the cholestorol on top of cholestorol sandwiched with the unhealthy carbs.
The turkey sausage bagel is 360 calories, 12 g of fat, 43 g of carbs, and 22 g of protein. I also have a hash brown with it.
Thank you, though.
