Double!!

Days 13 &14

So after blogging about how much I did not want to do a double, I ended up sleeping in on Friday morning and missing the only class of the day that I could take. Which meant that I sabotaged myself into doing a double! Maybe I subconsciously wanted to try it; maybe I had dared myself to while writing the last blog. I just could not wake up at 6:30 Friday to take the 7:30 class as I had to work 3 different jobs that day and would not be done working until well past midnight.
I hate making excuses, but I definitely chose my own well being over killing myself. Oh yes I don't know if everybody knows this but one of Bikram's lines is "kill yourself for 90 minutes" so you can live for 90 years. This definitely is not your mama's yoga.
The double was really hard, but I felt so great after it was over. I took the 10 AM class and the 4:30 PM class. I had friends join me for both (thanks Jess and DOUG!) so that helped me to show up. The first morning class was hard, and I tried to take it easy because I knew another one was coming. The second class was also very tough, and HOT, and I sweat more than I ever have before. After class I had a great conversation with Franca, but frankly I have no recollection of what we talked about. It felt a bit like I was drunk! I could have just gone straight to bed and had the best sleep of my life, but I made plans with a friend and went out until 2 am. I'm glad I can still maintain a social life outside of yoga, these days I feel like it is all I do!
