And Im not the kind that likes to tell you just what i want to do

what i needed most is a week of change and i got what i needed. on monday i started bikram yoga with katherine and now we are both hooked. its yoga practiced in a 110 degree room, and its extremely humid, sticky, and smelly. the best part is that you notice none of this once you actually begin the poses and you leave feeling as if you just exited a swimming pool and got a full body massage. magic! kath said they did one of the breathing exercises at the devendra banhart video shoot and that the guys said you get high from it. not magic!

On friday we all found out that saturday would be jacobs last day. i talked with him about it for an hour or so, and thought silently about how it will affect the rest of us. i told him we would probably fall apart without him and he nodded and said "i know". he didnt need to tell me that this was a great opportunity yadda yadda yadda. im not happy about it.

susan and melissa and i went to see the dodos at the getty for free. apparently melissa NEVER dances but she was wasted so she did. her dress was falling off and no one else was dancing but we didnt care. she exclaimed loudly that "these people took the TRAM up this giant hill and theyre just standing here with their arms crossed! TOO COOL!" that made me laugh because doesnt that always happen? seems like it. afterwards susan and i met up with cflo and dj and went to thai town. we took sunset all the way because the freeway was packed and drove through westwood and bel air. at the restaurant susan suggested we get papaya salad which is super delicious and she said laotian people are obsessed with it. its so fun going out to eat with her.

so saturday i went to get a haircut and ended up chopping off a foot or so. i don't even care! as i walked through uptown after to get some candy (they have some crazy sweets in that shop...a peanut butter stick covered in coconut!), i felt so pleased. this time one month ago i would have shuddered at the thought. im feeling really open to new things.
