about getting from point A to point B in the most interesting ways possible

If you're a large woman in America, your whole life is an opportunity to feel self-conscious, embarrassed, resentful and way too big. You can hide in the corner or on the couch, you can go to therapy, or you can put on your lycra bike shorts and get out there and move.

preparation permalink

bye bye tire company!I was actually ready early this morning! And thus, I am on top of the world.

Other than that, I have very little to tell. I've been diligent, and not terribly interesting. I worked through my lunch yesterday. That was a mistake. But I got a good 20 minute walk in on the way to work.

But hey. I love this story about a group of older people starting their own housing development (the Times derisively calls it a commune, natch).

I read that article too, and sent it to my mom, as she's always talking about wanting to live in more of a community as she gets older. Her one complaint was that she wouldn't enjoy being isolated with only people of her own age. Which I could understand.
