Xena stuff and a meme
Gabrielle, to the wanna-be amazon Amarice:
For many years I walked in Xena's shadow. I wanted to BE her.
{pensive pause}
She taught me something.... It's warmer standing in the sun. {smiles}
Heeeeeeee. I'm such a sucker for corny lines like that. I decided to drag out season 5 yesterday since it's the season that I have watched the LEAST. Plot holes aside, I do like the fact that for a change Gabrielle gets to be the warrior... the protector of her Xena who is weak and vulnerable and with child. And we get to see her really grown up and acting as the wise one and mentor to someone else. How refreshing!
Xena mumbo aside, I've been in a very yogic mood lately. I chose to channel my moodiness into my exercise and have had great results. I do believe that today is day 6 of really pushing myself... of working really hard at my poses. I really feel the difference too! I feel all buff and strong and gumby like. I finally got a calendar from the dollar store (horse theme) and starting my sticker system. I get a kick out of seeing my 6 stickers in a row on the last 6 boxes. Makes me want to continue cuz I'm a dork like that ;)
