Baby steps

Okay, I am not as proactive as I need to be in making my mark here in the Bay Area. But I am starting to take baby steps. The yoga training program is one and working at The Beat and taking dance classes there is number 2. There's a group of actors that meets and plays each Wednesday. I have yet to join in on any of the workshops, but I am going to wimp out one more time and pass on a little ballet in the morning.

My original plan was to pick up two casual carpool passengers and head into the city and park the car in the Civic Center area close to 42nd Street Moon for the 10:30AM class. Get a mani-pedi at one of the salons around there afterwards and then head up to Mill Valley to teach my class at 2PM. However, I really need to work on my stick-shift driving with Christine while I'm up there and it's probably better to do it before teaching.

Fine, call me a wimp. But I believe I should be able to go next week and start to get into that community.

And perhaps get a mani-pedi, as well as tick one of the 7x7 restaurants off my list.

Gratitudes:
1. cookies in the freezer
2. a bicycle in Berkeley
3. a potential teaching hub
4. a good interview
5. winning a tough match of word twist with Eve
