doing yoga with dogs.

in my attempts to sort of try to get back into something that resembles decent shape, i decided to do yoga this morning.  i used to practice ashtanga semi-regularly back before jb and i started dating seriously, but when i started running more, i fell off the yoga wagon...and even when i wasn't running so much, i didn't really pick the yoga back up.  anyway, it's something i really really enjoy, but it's an expensive hobby to have, so i downloaded a practice on itunes and tried to follow the instructor's verbal directions.  it was moderately successful - i can certainly do the vinyasas and warrior pose, etc.  the practice was from a studio i've never been to, so there were definitely some series in there that i wasn't familiar with.
in addition to my general out-of-shapeness and my lack of familiarity with some of the yoga business, i also had the dogs inside.  they were very interested in participating in yoga, particularly young etta james.  ollie kept trying to share his bone with me and my mat.  hilarious.  it's not super easy to focus on your breath when you're laughing because a dog is laying on your face while you prepare for a backbend.  good dogs.
