so i'm totally psyched - i might have a teaching job come january.
i found a listing on craigslist for a new studio opening up not too far from me in january who's looking for instructors, so i sent a resume over. she e-mailed me back saying that my training is right on schedule (i'm completing certification in three weeks) and that she's currently just collecting information, but she'd be in touch with me a little later and she looks forward to meeting with me.
the studio will have yoga, zumba, pilates, ballroom dancing and a few other things i think...maybe i can take some ballroom dancing and meet a hot guy that knows how to move his hips ;) ha.
last night was a lot of fun - we popped in the "dacing with the stars" workout dvd and danced around my living room like teenagers. i haven't laughed that much in a while.
the night was complete with girl talk (i.e. talking crap about the homewrecker that disintegrated my three year relationship and the ridiculousness of dating), chinese food and wine.
we made plans to do it again next week.

What's the longest you've ever waited in line?
this question is kinda dumb. although i'd assume it was at six flags one time or another. or maybe at universal studios for the mummy ride (which is amazing, by the way).
here they are.
the good:
- latin dance workout party tonight.
- toshi reagon show this weekend
- yoga training this weekend
- moroccan oil - seriously, i generally don't fall into the product trap when i go to the salon, but she used this stuff on my hair and it was great. so i bought some. it's just called moroccan oil. you know how your hair may be a little crunchy after you dye it? i got my hair done saturday and usually for about a week it's a little dry - it's already returned to it's luscious soft self after three days. it works as a leave in conditioner, detangler and heat protector. it's also supposed to take half the time to dry your hair, but i haven't really experienced that. i recommend you buy it. a little bottle is like $15, but it lasts about 3 months. i think it's worth it.
- going to a renew and restore yoga class on thursday
- getting used to being single
- my stress level has gone down a lot and i've gotten much more sleep with the apartment to myself. things are clean and tidy, and i'm not waiting for someone to come home at all hours of the night.
the bad:
- i'm single. i do dreadfully miss not having someone to snuggle with. and i do miss matt.
- that's probably it for the bad stuff though, so i can't really complain.
- oh, i suppose i'm a little bummed about the weather getting cold and it being dark when i leave work, but whatever, i have a cute winter coat that i've been missing.
amber, liz and liz's sister, stephanie, are coming over to do a latin dance workout video and eat chinese tonight. it should be a riot. i'm looking forward to getting in some quality girl time.
side note:
on saturday i'm volunteering with the (best) radio station (88Nine Radio Milwaukee) at the Toshi Reagon show (if you don't know who she is, YouTube her...she's an amazing blues/soul singer [although she looks like a man so don't get confused])...the odd thing is that the radio station DJ that i'm working with is matt's stepbrother's girlfriend, we've never met but she knows matt and i only know who she is because matt mentioned she worked there. i don't think i will be able to keep myself from mentioning it. i'm working this show with her and than there's an after party. after a few drinks i'm sure we'll be talking about it.
I don't like admitting it (who does?) but I'm not feelin' the NaNoWriMo this year. I know, I know. I'm supposed to "just keep writing anyway". It's the exercise in making yourself write, not necessarily the story that comes out of it. I know this and yet, I've just decided not to do it this year.
I will, however, fiddle around with this story idea a bit more, here and there. I think there's something to it (and hey, I DO have an ending for it!) and maybe it's more that I think it deserves more time/effort than a violent 30-day writing gorge can give it. Or, that's a hoity-toity excuse.
I do feel shame, and I do feel guilt. I read the cheering-on emails I get from Chris Baty and others and for a moment or two I think, hey, I'm only a week behind. Maybe....?
And then I think, don't be silly.
And then I think... well.... ..... maybe?
