About Me


i am jami.
i am a girl who used to live in jersey (and loved it, even), but i am not a jersey girl. now i live in a little town called painted post, just outside of corning, ny.
i like trees. i like sunshine. i like being outside. i like practicing yoga outside. i like practicing yoga inside, too.
i, like most people, like to listen to music. but, like most people, chances are i will not listen to your band, even if you say please.
i like to sleep. if i were a superhero, my super power would be to sleep more than everyone else.
i have a dog, mollie:
.
she is like a furry sausage with legs.
we are a family.
here is what i used to do at work all day:

but now i do this:
i am afraid of heights. i am afraid of the dark. i am afraid of being very high up in the dark. i am also afraid of deep water. if i tried to parasail over the ocean at night i would probably have a nervous breakdown.
someone once told me that if you can count your friends - your real true close friends - on more than one hand, then you don't really have any. i believe this to be more or less true.
my biggest pet peeve is poor grammar. i tolerate most other things, but poor grammar really gets my goat.
i have a good sense of humor, generally speaking. i like smart funny. i like stupid funny. i like weird and abstract funny. i like inside jokes. i like humourous anecdotes. i like funny comments, too, so leave me some.
this is my favorite poem by hafiz:
Even
After
All this time
The sun never says to the earth,
"You owe
Me."
Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It lights the
Whole
Sky.
well, i guess now it is time for the shameless plug. i teach yoga.
and pilates.
and i practice thai yoga massage.
here is my website: imajinewellness.com
