s and i did yoga together earlier. it felt so good to get in touch with my body. the practice focused on the back and hips and that's pretty much where i hold most of my tension. we both feel strongly about finding a daily yoga practice that works for us. i really hope we do.

a week or so ago, i signed up for some really cheap yoga classes run by the local library that will take place in january and february. the cost breaks down to $2.50 per class. freaking awesome. i have to find out when the neighborhood yoga studios do their free community classes, and add those to my schedule as well.

after yoga, s gave me a full-body massage. it was absolutely amazing. earlier this week, we decided to give each other massages on sundays, alternating giving and receiving each week. it's very reciprocal and interdependent, you might say. afterward, we sat on the couch and i started studying for the gre while she read. the gre is kind of fun in a way--to feel like maybe i can beat this stupid motherfucking standardized test. fucking motherfuckers and their stupid standardized tests. my life motto: "fuck standards. really. fuck 'em."

we just took a walk to watch the sunset. it was so beautiful and huge that it made my eyes feel small and incapable of taking it all in. what a nice motherfucking day.
