So far, this week has been pretty uneventful. I’ve mostly been doing job hunting stuff. I’m talking to a couple of companies right now. I have a phone interview scheduled with one of them tomorrow and then a regular interview scheduled for next Tuesday. I’m excited about the interviews but I can’t say that I’m excited to be going back to work. Hopefully, the regular paycheck thing will make up for it.
I tried something new the other night: hot yoga. Basically, this is yoga performed in a hot room - not sauna hot, but definitely warm. There is a yoga studio down the street from me and there is a special rate for new students, so I thought I’d check it out. It’s, well, not what I expected. It is a workout in a hot room. You sweat so much that it is difficult to hold a pose because if one part of your body is touching another part of your body, it just slips off. This makes most standing poses rather difficult. It is good though because, when you’re done, you get that nice, warm fuzzy feeling like you’ve just gotten out of the hot tub. I was going to go back today, but I chose to lift weights at the gym for an hour because it was less strenuous.
Last night, Danny and I walked over to Kepler’s Bookstore for a booksigning event. Robert Kurson, the author of Shadow Divers was there talking about the book. I won’t bore you with all of the details, but it’s a true story about two divers who discovered a sunken German Uboat off the coast of New Jersey in 1991. I bought the book, had it signed, and am reading it now. I’m a total sucker for true life adventures (Survive the Savage Sea, The Perfect Storm, Into Thin Air) as long as they aren’t made into crappy movies ala The Perfect Storm.
