i've just discovered my third eye

i went to my very first yoga class today. it was pretty fun, the instructor was very in touch with her spiritual side. it was kinda funny, we had to picture someone we loved and focus on them and send them good vibes, and then dedicated our practice to the earth. then when we actually started doing the poses it was intense! its called 'power yoga' for a reason! i don't have a lot of muscle strength apparently, it was good though, it felt good to stretch and relax a little. at the end of the hard stuff we did cool down kind of poses and we focused our energy on our third eye. and all this time i thought i only had two. i'm not sure how having three would benefit you at all, unless it could look in a different direction of your original two. i'll look into it. anyway i'm going again tomorrow, as silly as some of it was, i really liked doing the actual poses. and happy earth day!

do you tweet or twitter?


i've been hearing a lot about twitter lately.. i had no idea what it was and so i looked it up. my basic understanding of it is that you just write what you are doing.. at random.. and people follow it, and they're short entries.. and kinda funny. i went through a couple of twitter pages, and its interesting the things people say. i think i might start twittering. not that i really need another internet craze fix right now. i was watching TMZ and they said that if you write something on twitter its called a tweet, but i'm not really sure the correct way to use either twitter or tweet.. anyone know? anything more i should know about twitter before i tweet?

take me out to the ball game!

Yesterday Cory and I went and saw our first Yankee ball game! And it was in their brand new Yankee Stadium, which was very nice! They lost horribly, 4-24, and in the second inning the Indians scored 14 runs... terrible! Most of the crowd left before the 5th inning was over because things were going so bad, but considering it was our first ball game and we were having so much fun just being there that we decided to stay and watch the whole game play out.. it was a pretty fab day.We took SO many pictures! It was sunny and beautiful, almost 80 degrees! Cory and i both got a little sunburned.. a good start for the tan i'm planning on getting in costa rica baby!

play time!!

Cory has been getting home SO early!! On Friday he got home at 2:30!!! PM!!! So we went to Brooklyn and had some pretty gosh darn good pizza and took a walk over the Brooklyn bridge. Here are some pictures of our day...The only bummer thing about going places with just the two of us is that we have to ask someone we don't know to take a picture of us together, and not everyone is a photographer.. (not that I am but..) they kinda missed the top of the bridge, and they caught a guy in a yellow jacket right behind cory. it's better than no picture at all though!

running out of time!

we only have two weeks left in new york!! i'm so excited and kind of sad too! all of a sudden i feel like i need to go everywhere and find more things to experience and take pictures of. today i started my quest to knock off the last couple of items on my list of things to do/see in new york, it was cut short on account that it started raining but here is my day in pictures..
macy's is having a spring flower celebration and the whole bottom floor is covered in beautiful flower arangements.i walked so far to find this building! i don't even know what it's called, i've just seen in before and wanted to see it, and i knew it was on broadway, and it was below times square (because i saw it from the empire state building), so i walked down broadway until i found it. it felt like it took forever, but on the way back i realized it wasn't that far, i think i thought it was really far because i didn't know where i was going. isn't that weird how that works?i'm not really sure what is wrong with people in this city, but there is certainly something wrong. who does this? i laughed out loud when i saw this, it is so wrong on so many levels, i think its just animals, as if that excuses anything.. i don't even know!I thought this was really pretty, i don't know what they're for, it was outside of a church. And i didn't want to end my blog with that last picture!

a walk in the park

In between conference sessions today cory and i went to central park and had a picnic. It was such a beautiful day!
I know, matching your spouse is gross, but we are in New York, and we decided to represent.
I thought this was pretty cool. That's the first real person statue i've ever seen! there were SO many people in the park! It was such a beautiful day and it was really fun. I'm posting more pic on facebook!

an adventure day with my cory!

Cory didn't have to work today! That hasn't happened since we've been in New York! So we celebrated by going to the Empire State Building! Let me just say, LOVE love loved it! Here are some pics of our day...

Before you get the view, they squish you. We could not move we were all packed into the elevator so tight!!
It was a little bit windy on the North side, before we left they had to close it. And this is me being a creeper. That is Steve Wazniak.. one of the Apple cofounders, he got voted off of Dancing with the Stars last week, and we happened to bump into him.. and then we ended up in the same elevator leaving the Empire state, and he and his wife stopped for a beef frank once out on the street.. and I'm pretty sure he was just trying to get us to stop following him, which we really weren't following him, we were just going the same way.. I swear its true.
And to end the day we had lunch/dinner at A Salt and Battery fish and chips place in Greenwich Village. Totally British, owned and operated. It was pretty fabulous. Bobby Flay challenged them to a Throwdown, and lost, it's not hard to see why!
Yes Cory, it was a good day!
