Author of Idaho Code, From Hell to Breakfast, and a whole lot of left-wing political commentary. I also write comedy, op-ed pieces, and ridiculously detailed emails. I love all dogs and border collies, which are not dogs at all but sophisticated bon vivants in hairy, black and white suits.
Man, am I a slacker. I joined this Ning a couple of months ago, but I'm only just now figuring out how to use it. I am a joke to my Nintendo-addicted, Ning-expert, computer-savvy kids. It's sad, really. I just sit around waiting for the return of Atari and Pong.
FYI, I've created my own Ning called Iron Age Women. Basically, it's about pushing myself into doing something on my bucket list - compete in an Ironman triathelon. I want to do this by the time I'm 45, so I've got three years to train - and, by G-d, I'll need it. What I'm hoping is that an athlete gone to seed still contains the seed of an athlete. So, what does this have to do with all of you? Not much, except I'm interested in meeting and corresponding with other women who want to push themselves physically and mentally, however you do that, in whatever way you choose. You want to climb Mt. Everest? Great. You want to give up Krispy Kreme donuts? That's fine, too, and probably a lot harder.
What do you want to do? And what kind of encouragement would help you do it? That's what Iron Age Women is about. And, because I'm a lesbian, it'll probably get all gay on the site from time to time. I can't help it. I was born this way. (Take that, Sarah "Barracuda" Palin! Pray away the gay, my Aunt Fanny!)
Thanks for joining the group! Feel free to express yourself and be who you are! It's always a pleasure to see new faces! I hope that you enjoy the group!
