It’s In My Blood

I always love coming back to my parent’s house for a little bit.  I love my parents dearly, but part of the reason I still love coming back is that I usually don’t spend more than a week in Houston.  I have friends that really love Houston as an adult, but I just cannot find that same love for the city.  While it’s nice to have somebody cook for me and just lounge around watching 30 Rock and have shopping/yoga/running/going to lunch as activities, I only feel at home in my house but not in the city.  My mom also recently retired and is more antsy even I am.  She will wake me up in the mornings with her new travel proposals (I’m by no means complaining, but “ITALY?! CANADA?! VEGAS?! is a little intense to wake up to).  That must be where I get my wanderlust from .

I bought this 10 days of unlimited yoga for $20 (called Power of Ten!) in Houston at a studio called YogaOne and have been going with Hannah.  The first class we went to was not enjoyable to me at all.  It was supposed to be Vinyasa Flow.  I did not enjoy the flow of the yoga – I would find myself from standing to on my back to on my side without good transitions.  That, compounded with the fact that the yoga teacher’s voice was a quivery Fran Drescher.  In normal life, fine; in yoga, not very soothing.

I’m trying to make the most out of my time before November 15 (wooo, start date).  A lot of these are tentative, and will probably change.
September 22-27/28(?): Austin, Texas!
September 28-October 7: Houston/TBD?
October 7-12: New Orleans, Louisiana
October 12-18: Houston, TX
October 18-November 3: Sydney, Australia (my cousin’s getting married on the 23rd in Sydney but I was put in charge of planning the rest of the trip, yikes.)
November 7: roadtrip up to DC.
