Having lunch with Courtney Martin is kinda like having her for lunch, but less in a cannibal way and more in a soul communion way.
I LOVE that you’re in love, and so happy. It’s contagious, in the best way possible.
You can have me for lunch any day baby.
The exercise, by the by, is Tara Brach’s.

I LOVE this assignment Professor Kimmi!
When I was in college I was in this amazing children’s theatre troupe, and we did a similar group excercise called “YES” where everyone stands in a circle, and one person yells out something they love…”Crisp Fall Days!” and then the ENTIRE group yells (and if you can imagine, also does energetic fist-pumping motions)
“YES! CRISP FALL DAYS, YES!”
Then the next person calls out something new, and the entire group responds accordingly, until everyone has their say…
Not only is this fun, positive, energetic, and completely validating, but you invariably get the folks who call out things like: “TERDAY!”
(Yes…terday…yes!)
wow, i never realized that UTI=TMI!
Jennifer, thanks for being such a celebrator! Courtney, thank you so much for the woman’s name and link and for offering me your body. Yum. Becky, I love that. I love the word YES. Count me in! And Cesar, really? No empathy for my infection? Nice!
Hi Kimberlee,
This sounds like a great exercise, and what would go good with this is saying thank you back and putting on a little music and getting to the point to one to keep the eye contact with and ending up dancing a bit. Was hearing Funkytown just a few minutes ago and thought with all of that, telling a love partner within the music what you love and thank you and at some point switching off in the midst of eye contact and slowly but surely dancing sounds like a good combo!
So to say that you’re crazy in love, I respond THANK YOU! Now its your turn
And on our BlogTalk show, we have given you shout outs!
Thank you, Christopher! Insert little dance here.
I appreciate how supportive you are of me, even though we’ve never met.
Enjoy Funkytown!
