The Cutting Room Floor

Side Note: Alex will be subbing lots of classes on the east side this coming week. See Post Here for details...

I told everyone that I would have a video up today about my future on the westside. I don't and I'm sorry about that, but I have a good reason.

"Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans."
- John Lennon

You see, I had this grand plan. The grand plan, perhaps induced from the hypnotic state of a reality TV stupor, was for me to shoot video of all the places I've been looking at for a space to teach. My plan was to show all these spaces I've been checking out (two of them a wellness space, the other was the side room of a Martial Arts Studio) and

Have you vote on them.

That would have been cool, huh?

I thought so too, like a "Power to the Yoga People" sort of thing. We have this online reality show called "Where does Alex Teach Next?" You Decide. It could have been insanely fun!

But I had to cancel this show yesterday.

I had to scrap my "grand plan."

Because I have another option that blows the other three out of the water.

... And I say this with all due respect the other spaces as well as the hard work and generosity of those of you who hooked me up with these spaces. Kim, Doug, and Annie, you guys all rock and I thank you all so much for giving me wonderful options. I love you, and I may yet need them, but in all honesty... I hope I don't.

Because Option Four is the possibility that an entirely new studio may open. Better yet, I would have a lot of input on what happens at this entirely new yoga studio. I cannot say more than that because so much of this is still in progress.

But you'll know all the details as soon as all the under-current stuff gets finalized with all the legal T's crossed and I's dotted. The only place where you might find out faster than on my blog/mail list is at my photo shoot event this Saturday March 14th (2114 Winnebago St. from Noon to 4pm). I will divulge whatever details I can there and let you know everything on my blog - hopefully next week.

I am blessed to have this fall in my lap and I intend to make the most of it.

I still have all the old video, so should this "Option Four" not pan out, we can still play "Where should Alex teach Next" But I think you'll like it better if I have to leave all the recordings of those other places on the cutting room floor. (Actually in an unused folder on my hard drive, but that sounds less cool.) As a matter of fact if this fourth option pans out, I can almost guarantee,

You won't be Disappointed.

The universe works in odd ways sometimes. It all reminds me of the saying, "If you want to make God laugh...

Tell Him Your Plans. "
