I began writing the following post a while ago. Then, I just seemed to keep going. Suddenly, there were so many words I wasn’t sure anyone was going to take the time to read it through to the end. I didn’t want to cut anything out, though. I’m selfish that way, you see. So, to […]

Only then will you learn everything you need to know.” If you asked yourself “What Journey?” after the first sentence above, you can get all caught up on my rantings, ravings, whinings, […]

Note: To save you the time, I took the liberty of looking up the definition of “swim” in the Urban Dictionary. Here’s what I found: — 1. Swim S – someone W – who I – isn’t M – me — (You’re welcome.) When I registered for the Triathlon at Pacific Grove, I had to […]
