I Want To Be Zen

Can someone teach me how to be zen? Do I have to capitalize that? Zen? Well howeveryouspellit...I need to be more it.

I suppose I could do yoga. I remember taking yoga in University (for credit, no less! It's not just sitting around in a bunch of poses, I can tell you - although that's what I hoped it would be when I signed up for it thinking it would be a bird course...) and learning about breathing and meditation, and that is some good shit right there...but who has the time (or the alone time, right other moms?)  I joined a gym, and I'm gonna go there as soon as my weekend from hell at work is over, I swear...but I'm not sure I want to do group yoga.  Or yoga at all.

"Drink wine!" you say! And I do!  But as part of my new health initiative, I've banned weekday wine! And honestly? I miss it. I didn't think I would, but, for instance, when I was out shopping yesterday and I saw the wide array of wine glasses, my first reaction was "yum, wine!!" and then I got all sad thinking about how I wouldn't get to have wine until the weekend, except not this weekend because I'm working and the ban is in place during working weekends.  Um...yikes.

Vacation!!  Except no...the last 6 years have pretty much been a vacation...and I just got back from Chicago...and also I'm broke (which banning the weekday wine should help fix, kinda...)

So...I bought a pair of boxing gloves. Yep.  I'm gonna go pound the shit outta...some shit.  Oh...and they have pink on them.

That's my story.
