take my heavy heart to the movies
my heart is heavy. i'm coming to terms with the fact that it's september.
something about the month makes me melancholy in a way that's hard to write. for a lot of people, september represents the transition from vacation to work or school.
but it represents a lot more than simple change for me. september represents loss on so many levels, especially the loss of my health. 9/1/94, and september 2000 will always mark turning points in my life.
as the weather cools, my pain and physical suffering increase. in this way, september also marks a turning point each year. i've been getting acupuncture for a year now, and that school of thought takes seasonal changes into account (as they relate to wellness). so i'm really trying to come to terms & make peace with my body by understanding this.
i think i'm going to start going to my power yoga classes again. i also think i want to try something new like pilates.

i can't decide which movie to see tomorrow: finding nemo, or the secret lives of dentists? any suggestions? vivakate has convinced me to go see the magdalene sisters sometime!
now, IMHO, i saw and enjoyed "bend it like beckham", "down with love" and "seabiscuit", among others. and finally, as for "le divorce"... you're better off spending your money elsewhere.
