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.

Looking at the big shipsWhat can I tell you? I'm loving my bike. And I got my first unsolicited compliment on it this morning.

Yee ha!

I feel like I'm moving slowly, but since I don't have a computer on this bike (and don't intend to get one), I really have no idea whether I'm slow or not. I just feel so good riding it. It is such a pleasure.

I've been trying to keep myself busy since Sweetie is away. I've been housecleaning, and last night I went out to a restaurant to meet one group of folks, and a tavern to meet another. It was very nice to have some social time, though I got home really late, for me: 10:30! I slept hard last night, though I woke up and felt like I needed some more.

I had hoped there would be lots of bike riding, and there may still be. I haven't been in a pedalpalooza event since last Thursday when I did the Kickass kickoff parade, which really was fun. But, tonight, I go to the PLATINUM BIKE MASTER PLAN PUBLIC FORUM for NORTH/NE Portland. I have no idea what to expect, I just hope it's interesting and that I recognize some people there.
