Model Asana

Modeling was fun today - but man that is hard work!!! I'm literally sore! But I won't go into the details, since maybe if you don't know how awkward the positions felt, they won't look it. We actually didn't do any crazy yoga poses or anything - it was more about me having to hide knees/feet, twist in odd ways to show shoulders, etc. I need an Advil!

It was fun to have my hair & makeup fussed over all day, though... and to have "wardrobe" dress me, etc. However, it was a little too long of a day "thinking about what I look like", though. Usually I just shower, throw mascara on (err, sometimes that happens in the car instead even) & leave the house = 20 minutes tops... I'm low maintenance.

Oh! And apparently it will be published in the magazine after all: The March/April issue out in February '04. But I think she said she'd have some initial proof/layouts to show me this week sometime! COOL! I'll ask her if I can post em. So, ya, the mag, and on the cover of the brochure for the conference, and posters in yoga studios throughout California and Colorado, etc. I look pretty different now from when I lived in Boulder, but I wonder if any old friends will recognize me?

"Hey! Isn't that the chic we used to party with all the time back in '95?"

Ya, doubtful. But stranger things have happened.

UPDATE: They did! I got a couple random phone calls & emails! ha! Here's the final ad that came out in the March 2004 issue. Apparently it was also on posters & brochures throughout Colorado, too.

There were 2 other models, a hair/makeup stylist, wardrobe stylists, the camera man & his assistant, the YJ Art Director & my friend Elana came for a bit, too. It was shot in the photographers *beautiful* loft studio downtown... I wish I lived there!! They fed us all day... and there was this suuuper cute little doggy named Dice... a Patterdale Terrier. But this one is really rare cuz he's all white - with some light gray little spots (hence where the name comes from I think) but he was sooo snuggly and sweet, very mellow for only 1 1/2!

A good day overall... but now that I'm home I wish I could rest before going out, but instead I've got to catch up on some work I didn't get to do today... and maybe get this house in order again... after yet another busy week, it's slipping again and I am running out of clean clothes to wear.

Tonite is going to be a wild night fo'sho!. It's Jane's bday & we're hittin a club for some drinks & dancing... and THEN there's a *huge* loft party being put on by the crazy cats we spent Thanksgiving with. Their party is going to be so crazy I'm almost scared to go. These people have strange powers that make me want to party all night long and next thing I know I wont be home till sunrise. Mental note not to let that happen - I've got to be productive tomorrow!!

Ok BYE!
