Remember pac-man? The yellow round thing that looks like a cake with a piece cut out of it? It goes around in a maze eating all these pallets, being chased by ghosts, eating power pallets and then eating the ghost back? I remember I used to have one of these and played with it until it completely conked out on me. It makes the same monotous noise throughout the game but the procedure is always the same. The design of the maze changes, I think as you progress.
At this moment, the kids are simply bananas over Pacman like it's the newest thing on the planet! When I told them, "Mommy used to play Pacman too when I was a little girl". Kids go, "But mom, you're old. You mean Pacman is so old too! But Pacman looks so young". Wait till I tell them about how crazy I was about Transformers. Even bought a really expensive book from overseas on all the Transformers.
Anyway, so's Power Ranger and Ninja Turtles.
Now, the kids are playing Pacman on their computer, not the flat 1 dimension Pacman, mind you. Their Pacman got multilevels, 3D and can perform Butt-Bounce wan, you know. They can eat special power pallets and fly through the air, soar through the sky, go through obstacles.....of course, also the conventional eating of ghosts too. And today's Pacman got other Pac people to save and Pac baddies as well.
Hhhhmmmm.....
Now, kids are harping on about getting Pacman game for their gameboy.
I have been doing this pose, part of Cosmic Dance (a type of yoga, I am assuming), called Stargazer pose without knowing it is called Stargazer's pose a lot in the past. You see, sometimes, I don't follow the rules and come up with my own stretches and poses. It is fun. I have on some music, nice, soothing music or just anything I can click on. Then I go with the flow, letting my hair down. Just moving to the music...and that is when I come up with the above Stargazer's pose. This pose really stretches your sides. Keep your eyes on the outstretched hand if you are keeping it pointed to the top, as if you are waving or connecting to a higher energy from the Universe. Your arms will ache a little but hey, toned arms, here you come! :-) For those who want a bigger stretch, it is safe to slowly and gently move the lifted hand towards your back...don't overdo it, listen to your body's complaints and respect it. You don't have to prove anything to anyone, reme...
