Don’t laugh, but I’m going to do a triathlon

Then, recently, I read a post about a woman of size who completed a triathlon. And my dream began! (Oh, that I would have kept that post in my favorites. Sigh. [...]

Tag cloud, you ask? It’s that list of keywords on the right. (You won’t see it if you are looking in a newsreader, so go to the site to see it: http://theonelastthing.com) The more I talk about something, the bigger and bolder it gets. If you [...]
