Mania

Hello friends,
I started week 5 of practice today and I feel great. Time is a-flyin'. I think Mari B is getting closer on my left. My right knee is starting to feel better and my right hip is loosening. Slowly, slowly.
I talked to my new roommate in Nashville yesterday and she seems really cool. I think we'll get along well. Arranging that was easier than I expected. Yay.
I've been a lot more social this past week than when I first got here. I think in my time traveling alone I forgot how to talk to people for longer than the prescribed "where you from?" "where you been/going?" "how long you traveling?", etc. It's nice to talk to people and hang out and laugh and stuff.
I've been feeling a bit manic--I have tons of energy and my mind is racing, but in a sort of creative, fun way. This kept me from sleeping. It's interesting. I realize the meditation, yoga, etc is supposed to make these high kinds of moods less intense, along with making the lows less intense.
I went through a period a couple years ago where I'd go work out/train capoeira in the evenings and then I had so much energy still that I would jog the mile or two home or else I knew I wouldn't sleep. I feel that way now. I kinda like it, to be honest. The world is very bright.
Love,
Lauren

Hi Lauren....
It's good to hear that you're enjoying yourself and apparently that your "expansive trend" has begun even without a transformation in the shade of your wardrobe. Without your positive comments, and absent any recent photos we, your adoring fans, would have no indication of you personal expansion or contraction. On the "other hand" (or, rather both hands, for that matter) if we were to note a large blip in the precious stone market, we'll know that you've acquired your rosy-colored 6 carat ring finger bauble and that your authoritive, queenly qualities are well on their way to enhancement with the ruby on your right!

Best wishes for the remainder of your stay.

George
