"Don't you hate it when you're trying to play basketball,
and your head's in the game but your heart's in the song?"

We did another lesson of yoga today, and to quote High School Musical, my head was not in the game. Caitlyn told us to empty our minds, put our thoughts on a high shelf and come back to them later. So I would take a deep breath, put all my thoughts away... for like 10 seconds and then they'd start trickling back into my head again. Over and over this would happen, and it was driving me insane.
I'm not good at yoga, I'll probably never be good at yoga, but when I'm focused, I can at least manage to not fall over. I honestly couldn't have kept it together if I was paid. Honestly, I was going a little stir crazy. It's been five days, and I still have no clue what my head was doing. Oh, Jacob also got stung by a wasp right beside me, and I had to take him to the clinic, so that also really didn't help with the whole “keep your brain on yoga, not on other things”. So I fell down a lot. I ended up giving up on using a towel as a mat because it just made all the slipping even worse.
By Tuesday though, I at least had the comfort of knowing I must have done something not wrong, because I had that soreness in my abdominal that you get from doing lots of crunches. So while it was borderline infuriating that my mind was wandering like a curious 2-year-old, at least I got a bit of a workout in. Thank God I got it together by Wednesday though, because we started ballet.
