I. YOGA CLASS ANNOUNCEMENTS
a. class cancellations
Recent developments (see all other items) have offered us all an opportunity to gain highly coveted skills of adaptation to mutable structures. While Happy Hour Yoga is eternally thriving on both the astral and metaphysical planes, the following three consecutive Friday classes will not be happening in the arms and legs universe as we know it:
III. WRITING NEWS
a. the blog
Yeah, I know. I've totally dropped the blog. As it turns out, the yogaforthemoment.com was the lovechild of a contemplative nature mixed with relative unemployment. I would like to share what it is that happens when a querying mind adopts a hyper calendared lifestyle, but I don't have time.
b. the job
I got a writing job is the thing. It is temporary, thank god. I like it. I get to wear my good shoes.
c. the book
Not right now, guys, come on.
IV. EMOTIONAL FEELINGS
a. love
One can't rule out dehydration, but I've got a really tender feeling in my heart toward you.
b. gratitude
Yesterday I had a run in with a really unpleasant person demanding to know the name of the manager on duty and what not. She was slamming doors and things because she was not allowed to open a package of tights before buying them. This was important for me to experience, because my first impulse was to ask her what her problem was, but instead I asked myself. What was that woman's problem? I decided it was a lack of gratitude, so I started reminding myself to be grateful. I started by being grateful I was not the manager on duty, and then grateful for all the people that ring me up and make me sandwiches and drive me around and read my emails, which reminded me that it was time to get back in touch and to remember to say all the things and then thanks after all the things. I feel deeply lucky all the time, and it's because of you.
c. sleep
Into it.

NO FRI Sept 30
NO FRI, Oct 7

In the way of Other People's Projects, I'd like to say congrats to
Justin Cabrillos on getting the Links Hall LinkUp residency and then
making a heart exploding dance out of it last weekend. Also, come with
me to Links Hall again Saturday to see whatever it is Anthony Romero has
been hollering about. (To Say Nothing Of the shout out from Time Out.) Also, the dearly diligent Sara Schnadt is giving a talk at the Art Institute Oct 1. NO FRI, Oct 7
NO FRI, Oct 14
b. the pre-holiday season potluck
Before Halloween catapults us into the chocolate covered time warp birthing the Occidental New Year, let's have dinner together.

c. upcoming yin workshop
If you didn't get to check this out last time due to the sold out quality of this highly sold out event last time because it sold out, then sign up on the internet and buy a ticket. It's fun. You get to lay on the floor and I talk really nice to you.
II. PERFORMANCE ITEMS
a. thanks for coming to the whale
So, this was kind of amazing, right? Thanks for coming, all of you. The people that made this thing, and the people that puppeted it, and the people that made it sing, and the people that made it glow, and the people that bought beers for all those people, are without a doubt the best people I know. We are called Opera-Matic. You can like us on the facebike. I mean, facebook.
b. now come to the victory project
The dance thing I have been going on about. It's happening next weekend. The big deal show. Last weekend we went to Cleveland (photo above) and performed at the Ingenuity Festival, and now we're doing it in Chicago once and for all. It's really far away though, in this so called "urban paradise" area that doesn't even have any booze, plus it's probably going to be really cold, so whatever if you don't make it. It's just a thing that's been transubstantiating my limbs and inner stuffs for the last six months, which is really only 1/66th of my 6-dimensional lifetime, pretty much cosmic dust in the tachyon universe.
i. regarding the location
Northerly Island is near museum campus on the lake. It is hard to know how to get to it if you don't know how to get to it. If you ride you bike, you will get a discount. Also, there will be iGo car shuttles taking people from real world locations at different times.
ii. regarding the iGo cars
We are looking for volunteer drivers to shuttle the people in the iGo cars. You must be an iGo member to do the shuttling. Probably if you do this we'll let you in free and someone will buy you a beer in the future.
iii. regarding my saying it's no big deal if you don't make it
That was not true.
c. the centennial thing
It's the 100th birthday of the Athennaeum Theater. I'm going to light that many candles for them at dusk on October 10th. I don't know anything else because they haven't told me. But if you like watching me creep around like a light witch, come over.
