Going to a poetry reading is like a cross between meditation (you want to focus and your mind wants to escape) and attending the symphony (you have to wait for a cue as to when it's OK to applaud.)
Luckily, I'll be going to my "real" meditation tonight at Integral Yoga Institute since there's a Kirtan tonight, led by my teacher, inspiration, girl-crush, Astrud.
I've been to the gym already and gotten a lot of shopping done yesterday, so the rest of today is devoted to chilling out.
