lots of toes in yoga pants

I meant to post this yesterday, but forgot to hit 'post'. Unfortunately, I was not feeling good and hated the Internet. I puked and had a nap at work.

Here we go...

This weekend, after making some delicious walnut bran muffins (naturally) I stopped in to the MTCC to check out the Yoga & Pilates conference.It was a very relaxed place to be since I had been at #pibTO and broke a world record earlier. I ran into some friends and also checked out some cool products. My favorite was the purses & accessories made from cork, which deserve their own post.Overall, it was probably much more interesting if you actually took a class. I just cruised around and listened to some musica.

This is a video of the Hare Krishna mantra. Sing along, watch it on repeat, it's catchy, trust me. It might even take you to a higher state of consciousness. My friend & yoga teacher Jonny is in India right now, he has a blog called Yoga Bar.

Hare Krishna at the Yoga Conference from me on vims.

When the sixteen names and thirty-two syllables of the Hare Krishna mantra are loudly vibrated, Krishna dances on one's tongue

raincoat & wellies and clouds in the sky

Today is cloudy and I've got lots to do. I took these yesterday, they're for you. I've got some things to post later too. Drinking a coffee and feeling neat, I wonder what catering will bring today to eat?

Thank you Daily Challenge for giving me this camera. If you don't know, I won it in their Holiday Do Gooder contest. I love it. It make me very happy to share all kinds of random snipits of my life with the world. Like this little guy:

what is your blog about anyways?

People always ask me "what's your blog about?" or"well, whats your topic?". As this happens I say to myself in my own little head "I dunno, whatever I feel like, whatever I like, whatever is me-ist". I learned something cool from Chrissy at a company called Espresso. It is called Wordle. I made this Wordle of my blog's first page to get an idea of what my blog might be really about.

This is the realest and truest thing. This shows you what matters most to me. I started writing my blog because I love writing, I love life and I love to remember the things I do that keep me being awesome. This is what my blog is about.

Savant: extraordinary skills not exhibited by most persons.

Educate yourselves...

This is some kind of wonderful!

Savant syndrome—sometimes abbreviated as savantism—is not a recognized medical diagnosis, but researcher Darold Treffert defines it as a rare condition in which persons with developmental disorders (including autism spectrum disorders) have one or more areas of expertise, ability or brilliance that are in contrast with the individual's overall limitations.

Individuals with the syndrome are often simply called savants. This can be a source of confusion since savant can also mean a person of learning, especially one of great knowledge in a particular subject.

My dear Walt Whitman wrote this beauty : Savantism

THITHER, as I look, I see each result and glory retracing itself and nestling close, always obligated;
Thither hours, months, years—thither trades, compacts, establishments, even the most minute;
Thither every-day life, speech, utensils, politics, persons, estates;
Thither we also, I with my leaves and songs, trustful, admirant,
As a father, to his father going, takes his children along with him.

Sweet Tasing Vodka Drinks

I sit and drink
and write and such
and around me
is life and love so much
still why and when
I'm tough and feel so down,
not worthy of a crown.
Tattooed friends and vodka drinks
around we sit and share our thinks
no matter what fun we do
its always me, alive and true
And as i sit, the friends are gone
a little drunk, a bit withdrawn
i know for sure its me i love,
but to share my heart,that, i think of.
