Queen To Play
I miss swimming. Even if i'm still not very good at it, I remember it's extremely stress-relieving to be in water, to learn to come to terms with my fear of depth and of the sudden inability to float and to breathe.
My favorite antidote to stress is still a 90-minute bikram yoga class, and it seems to be working, because i met an old college friend on friday and the minute she saw me she said, "WOW, you look so fresh!"
Thank you, T, I love you for emphasizing I don't look stressed at all. Maybe it's because I've gotten older; I have learned to manage stress in the same way that I've sort of learned to manage my shyness.
On the other hand, it's not the first time somebody didn't recognize me. Today, by my lonesome, at Chocolate Kiss, I ran into a high school friend who told me she had been looking at me a long time before she realized it's really me.
Have I really changed that much?
I went to watch another French film with Jaz, whom I haven't seen in ages, but who kindly reminded me that even so, as always, we begin where we left off, and everything just feels right in the world.
