Because I went to bed so late and consumed alcohol, it was very difficult to wake up today. So instead I opted for sleeping in and recovering, with a brief wake up to watch the Catherine Babel run (god Catherine is SO GOOD). Soon after I actually woke up, Haley came over again to apply for more jobs. I felt like I couldn’t really do anything when she was here, so I just watched SGDQ. There were some pretty fun runs, such as a Mega Man 8 race, where the players ended 4 seconds apart (and it was a heartbreaker because they were neck and neck until one guy got bad luck on one boss that he could do nothing about).

I was really feeling love and affection for Steve, who I just wanted to be home so we could spend time together!! He just has been so cute lately and I love him so much!! After he got home and Haley left, we had some fun that we haven’t done in feels like forever because first my UTI stuff and then my period.

Today is Friday and that means Bring a Friend to yoga!! I couldn’t wait to take him, and even though Hannah was supposed to teach it but got sick, Stephanie was there and she made it a good class. I noticed Steve had his eyes closed most of the time, and I thought maybe because we close our eyes in the beginning to get grounded, he thought you’re supposed to do yoga the whole time with your eyes closed. So I poked him and whispered that he could keep his eyes open, and he whisper-shouted back (in a lighthearted frustrated tone), “I CANT because SWEAT keeping running in MY EYES!!”

It always makes me explode with love and appreciation when he comes to yoga with me, for his own health but also because it’s like, romantic to me that he wants to participate in a hobby I really care about even if it’s not something he’s as into as I am. I’m not like, dragging him along and he never complains. It means a lot to me <3

After yoga we stopped at Whole Foods, where we discovered that Prime members now get special deals, in the same way that co-op members get deals. I’m a Prime member, so that was nice. We picked up a few things (soba, beyond beef burgers for 4th of July, and mochi) and then headed home so I could make dinner.

Dinner was cooled soba with spice and open-faced fried egg sammies. I don’t like tracking my calories, at least not super intensely, but I do appreciate it when I’m unsure about how much I’m consuming. It helped me find out tonight that if I wanted to drink my Starbucks tea latte AND eat a whole avocado that I should cut my noodle serving in half and only use one piece of bread for my sandwich. Thanks, MyFitnessPal. You really did me a solid.

Right now MFP has me at 1959 calories, which is for when I work out a lot, but if I don’t burn more than 400 calories, I try to keep my consumption at around 1600 so that I’m just a bit under and hopefully will continue to lose vs gain or maintain.

The evening was spent relaxing with GDQ, watching some fun runs (the runs tend to get better as the week goes on). There were some pretty cool TAS runs of Celeste and Super Metroid, and there was a fun run of LoZ Wind Waker.

Once you get into the swing of it, it feels so good, and helps me a lot with stress and anxiety.

Yes, definitely! It helps me from being as sore, and to loosen up, for sure.

did you catch the SMB3 run between mitchflowerpower and grandpoobear? it was heartbreaking [but also fantastic]!

i miss yoga. there's only 2-3 studios accessible to me since moving away from orlando and i didn't like any of them very much. i might have to go back to doing it on the wiifit lol. not the best, but better than nothing, at least?

At the time that you asked me, I had not yet, but I watched the VOD yesterday. It was really good and I enjoyed it a lot! ^_^ They were very entertaining and Mitch seems like a genuinely nice guy (as does grandpoobear, but he feels more like a Youtube personality to me than Mitch does).

I do agree that some yoga is definitely better than none, and I know there are a bunch of YouTube channels and other free ways to participate! It sucks when there’s nothing good around you. I haven’t found a studio besides this one that I’ve really liked, so it makes me nervous that I’ll hate it if/when I move away from here.
