Two Martini Yoga

About 3 or 4 times a week, I get up to go to yoga before work. It is a newly discovered passion of mine. I'm currently working on a move where I pull on my big toe and try to touch my ear with my heel (while seated on the floor in case anyone wants to try). Also, I've set myself the goal that 2008 is the year I'll be able to touch my head with my feet (by bending backward). Really. No, really.

One of the things I like about yoga is that some of the moves just make me laugh. I mean, when your instructor tells you to stand up, put your right heel on your left hip bone, lean over to grab your left foot, and then swing your right hand around your back and grab your right big toe - well who wouldn't laugh.

This morning while trying to touch my head with my feet I was feeling the effect of last night's two martinis (small martinis - not the big *ss Elsa's martini). Not the way you're thinking. I actually found myself getting much closer to this than I ever have before. I'll post a picture when I finally make it.

Ouch!
What I'd like to see is pull on your big toe, touch your ear with your heel while seated on the floor with a martini in your other hand!
Hope you meet your goal, can't wait to see the pic!
