Good Sunday

I love days like this.

Dragon was home the whole day, we slept late and ate breakfast together. It has always been Dragon's wish that we'd buy a second computer while I've never thought it being that important - but it's quite surprising how nice it actually can be. Dragon was filling up his new iPod, boogieing and chatting with his buddies on IRC, while I was reading the blogs and writing emails - at the same time in the same room, all without "having to make it quick" out of courtesy for the spouse.

For lunch we went to the new Japanese restaurant Shiawase that opened next to us on Davie. Nice place, although empty of customers - I had a chicken teryaki and vegetable tempura while Dragon had a bento box with chicken teryaki and sushi. Nice food - sushi wasn't quite as good as in Akira, or quite as cheap, but on the plus side the place is literally around the corner.

After watching the rest of the episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist we have, we went to yoga together - this time it was Dragon's introduction to ashtanga, in the form of a flow class. I was a bit afraid (for myself, after Kathy's class) that Shannon's style would be too experimental for my liking, but I should really start trusting her. Her class was absolutely lovely - and for the first time ever I was able to go from Prasarita Padottanasana A to a tripod headstand. And, come back from it with at least with some grace. It feels pretty amazing being able to do something like that for the first time.

Dragon left after flow, but I stayed in for the following yin class too. I've discovered that yin is becoming very emotional for me - when I was walking home after the class I was almost in tears again, but in a good way. Feeling good physically, a bit dizzy because of the medication, and emotionally satisfied and content for practicing with my husband and walking in the most beautiful city in the world that was bathing in sunset.

Now, I'm typing this entry on the new little Mac, on the sofa, eating delicious strawberries and watching wrestling with my dearest. It's all good.
