Now this was something I didn't anticipate - my DVD player crapped out on me this morning. Or rather, the remote control did - I can't scroll through menu options any more. The Play button works, as do Stop and Eject. But the arrow buttons don't work at all, which means I can only do the first option from any given menu.
I tried turning the power off and on, ejecting and re-inserting the DVD, changing the batteries in the remote, and every other thing I can think of. And nothing.
It worked just fine on Monday, so I have no idea what happened in the meantime. All I know is that I hope it sorts itself out very soon, as it effectively reduces my practice options from 11 to 4 if I can't use the menus. I'll still do the challenge, but I may have to revisit the rules for how many times I do each session. Boo. BOO, I say!

Related Reading: Just by chance, I have come across a couple of interesting posts about gender and body norms when it comes to yoga.
In What's the Deal with Guys and Yoga?, Fit and Feminist wonders why so few men do yoga, and so few women are willing to lift weights. She comments:
There is nothing inherently masculine or feminine about yoga, or weight lifting, or running, or pink or blue or cooking or household tools or really much of anything, for that matter.
And over at The Lipstick Chronicles, we find An Open Letter to the Fat Girl I Saw at Hot Yoga in New York City, which is so beautifully written it makes me cry, and so true that I want to repost it every day.
