I've seen 52 out of 100, which really surprises me. Until recently, I never watched movies. I rarely go to the theatre. However, since we have cancelled our cable and joined Blockbuster - I've seen several of these in the last couple months:
- Far From Heavan
- Moonstruck
- Michael Clayton
- The Departed
- No Country for Old Men
- LA Confidential

I also think I hated more movies than I like ... I'm not really a movie "re-watcher." Once I've seen it, I'm happy. However, there are lots of movies I wish didn't exist ;-) I do think I will be using this list as a way to get some good movies on my Blockbuster Queue. Wish me luck!

On that note ...

Health # 1: I went to yoga again last night. I feels good :-) I am less sore than before I went! That makes 3 out of 25.

And just for fun ... some pictures my dad sent me. They spent a week in Seattle, and are currently boarding a boat for their Alaskan cruise. Here are a couple pictures from the Seattle aquarium (wow!) and the actual "Sleepless in Seattle" house!




So let's see ... above - beautiful Seattle with fun tours and live Octopuses (Octopi? hehe) or below, here in Austin -->

Hmmm How exciting and photogenic my cube is today!

YES! Yoga



YES! This is how I feel after I go to Yoga. I have no idea why I don't go more often! Last night I was sitting on the couch feeling lazy and it dawned on me it was about time for yoga class. So I got up and went and it felt great! At the beginning of class she asked us to set a goal for that day's practice. My goal was to use that hour to remember how good it feels to be healthy. I did. It feels great and I really hope this keeps me inspired!
Health # 1 : Got to Yoga 25 times (2/25)
