Dare You

Maybe you've heard about it, maybe you haven't, but there's a new magazine out there for the plus size community. Aww yiss, DARE Magazine.

I'm a sucker for internet magazines, and this one is just plain cool. It's Canada-based, but you can appreciate it even if you're not.

I'm just really enthusiastic about this, because I like cool new stuff. Can't wait to see what they come out with next!

On Loop

Sometimes (okay, all the time), I find songs that I really like and listen to them until no one in the vicinity can stand me.

Can't stop, won't stop.

Please Ponder

If you've ever even glanced at my Instagram, you'll have seen lots of pictures of my drawings (and Charlie, but she's not important right now).

What I'd like to know is, would you be interested in seeing my drawings? They're certainly not Da Vinci quality, but some of them turned out pretty nicely, in my own only-moderately-humble opinion. Let me know if this is something you might like to see, or if it will drive you bonkers.

And yes, if I do end up posting, I promise to post any horrifying portraits I may attempt. For laughs.

Finally, as a reward, enjoy this picture of a cute dog we met in Carpinteria.

Update

Out of curiosity on my part, as well as several strangers, I decided to Google the words on this necklace, hoping it might solve some mysteries.

Nope! If anything, I am now more confused.

So now I've come to the conclusion that it has to do with some cult that really, really enjoys volleyball.

Just in case you were wondering, too. And the next time someone asks what it means, I'll just tell them a very (very) long story about this cult and the fantastic, underdog victory in 1983 against some weird Russian private school.
