You know how "Happy families are all alike; unhappy families are each unhappy in their own way"? (Or something closely approximating it . . . )

Happy LJ entries seem to be all alike. I still love my classes at Cooper Union. Lovely visit with Alister; so nice for M. to spend time with someone he's known for more than a year. And we may have made another transatlantic match: two of my friends were quite taken with him at the wedding, so we invited one out with us each night, and he and J. hit it off. We shall see.

How embarrassing is it to be in a yoga class filled with people neither younger nor fitter-looking than I am (in fact quite the opposite) and find that I'm the only one who can't hold downward facing dog for as long as the instructor wants us to. Now that I've got a teaching schedule, I've really got to stick to a gym schedule, and one filled with yoga and pilates mat classes, not just treadmill and a couple of handweights . . .

Last time I looked, you looked a hell of a lot fitter than I am and certainly didn't look like someone whose age I am too gentlemanly to mention :)

Ah, but it's just like high school gym class -- I look fit and trim, but I can't keep up with the rest of the class . . . I wanna be, you know, average at some athletic endeavor at some point in my life . . . Not to mention drop those ten "I turned *undisclosed age* and got married all at once" pounds . . .
