Yesterday morning I went to Gorilla Yoga, which is basically this really cool group of people that practice yoga in various places around the Cities.  Yesterday was at the Science Museum, and since I got there late I was “stuck” out in the hallway overlooking the Mississippi! 

Today I went hiking at Minnehaha Falls (the same place I went this winter with all of the ice) and it was awesome!  It’s been really cloudy/rainy/cold lately, but today it was 65 and sunny, so it was the perfect day for a hike and some photography.  The creek and river are really flooded right now, so it was really interesting to see that up close.

I just read an article about “healthier Easter baskets” which suggested carrots instead of candy…I’m all for healthy eating, but hey, it’s Easter, calm down.

a) I should always write things down. in the same place, not on random scraps of paper/word documents/back of receipts.  really, my life would be much easier if I could remember this.  or if I ever actually checked my planner after writing things down…

b) despite attempts to be virtuous and not eat salt and vinegar chips/drink Diet Coke, sometimes you just need Jimmy John’s with all the glory of that crunchy-tangy chip and the bubbling joy of a soda

c) I really want to start apartment hunting instead of job hunting

d) this weekend, I watched The Graduate, This Is Spinal Tap, multiple episodes of “Buffy” and “Glee” and I didn’t even have to get up to switch DVDs.  Thank you, Netflix.

e) I shouldn’t be allowed to shop.
