"It Is Decidedly So"

One of the best parts about working for lululemon is that I can literally practice yoga, work, enjoy a lazy Sunday afternoon at home, and hey—even sleep if I want to—in the same clothes. And I’m sorry to break the news to those of you who aren’t ready to hear this, but yoga pants are the new jeans. I basically have no interest in wearing anything that doesn’t feature 4-way stretch ever again—can I even remember the last time I put on a pair of jeans? My sources say no.

While this is great for comfort’s sake alone, it’s also great for motivation. For instance, this morning I had the 6am shift and knew that if I wasn’t already wearing my running clothes that it’d be pretty tough to motivate myself to hit the pavement after such an early wake up. So what did I do? Dress like the little runner girl I’m posing as this month and deck myself out so I could stop by the river on the way home and do my favorite 3-mile loop.

But then it was raining when I left the house at 5:30am…and absolutely pouring when I left work at 1pm…and pretty torrential when I finally made it back home. Basically, I was totally rained out.

But of course, just when I had given up all hope of making it out for a few miles, the skies cleared up and the sun peeked it’s little face through the rain clouds. Freaking. Perfect.
