Well, I emailed the woman running the training and asked for where I send the registration cheque. I ordered the books from Amazon. I was at yoga at 6 this morning, and then went back for a meditation thing this after noon. The instructor I talked to yesterday was running the meditation thing. It's a big studio, and I didn't really think anyone even really recognized me, but I walked in and she said she checked out the training place and had clearly gone through the whole site. She said it looked really good, and they looked to cover everything one would want for basic training stuff. She said it looked better than most initial instructor training programs.
Gulp. Well, I'm doing it. I'm going to have to change my Kayaktrip somewhat this summer. I was going to start in Yellowknife in Canada, and travel about 1100 miles. I'm changing where I go somewhat and only going to have a 600 mile trip, far less in the actual tundra than I intended. I'll save $700 bucks or so on the difference in transportation, plus what I save in therapy, it will basically be the equivalent of doing what I was doing anyhow, and getting the yoga training for a little over half price.
Gulp. I'm doing it.
I got invited to go to a poetry reading tomorrow where I can read my poetry. The woman who runs it is a friend who manages some low grade community theatre group. It sounds a lot more accepting and egalitarian than that poetry slam, but I'm uncertain if I can even hack that rejection if it goes poorly.
I've spent the last two weeks or so just assuming all my friends have abandoned me, but I guess I'm wrong. My friend A. (whom I would totally love to date, but who is exactly the kind of woman who would eat me alive) stopped by yesterday. She had her lunch here, as she is a postal carrier, and I'm on her route. Had a good hour with her. I really like her, but she is very domineering and could steamroll over me effortlessly. She has been texting today which has me feeling pretty good.
