I am writing this from Barcelona. My Spanish lessons are not being put to good use at all – every time someone addresses me in Spanish (or Catalan, as the case may be), I freeze and get the Deer-In-Headlights, panicked look on my face. I did manage to ask for directions and ask how to buy a ticket to Sitges and order some ‘agua’ to drink. As it happens, I am largely useless in restaurants as I don’t know the names of most vegetables or fruits, and they are NOT intuitive. But I love love love hearing this language spoken, and plan on continuing my lessons when I go home.

....if it wasn’t for the horrible case of food poisoning I had which caused me to miss 6 days straight, I would’ve been able to say that I’m close to completing the challenge. As it stands, I think I’ll hit only 23 out of 30… but that’s still good, so I’m trying to focus on the fact that the food poisoning was BEYOND MY CONTROL. Grr…

Tonight was brutal. 90 minutes of pure hell. I couldn’t stand in tree pose, I couldn’t stand in dancer’s pose, I couldn’t even… well… STAND! Everything was insanely difficult and to top it all off, I started crying during final savasana. It just wasn’t a yoga day for me.
I’m kind of glad I can skip tomorrow, but it only means I’ll have to double up later on, and maybe make peace with the practice on Wednesday evening… sigh
