Death to Poochy

My poochy makes me sad and my sadness makes my poochy. For the uneducated, my poochy is the thick layer of skin, fat and old socks that surrounds my midriff. My lithe young body (ok when I was 15) is now a dog-eared journal chronicling the violence of two births. I'm was a canon for two flesh bullets called Sophie and Daniel. Ok, I'm just flexing my metaphor muscle. Let me say it simply - I'm just fat and that's that.

You know, to get to the mall, our house to watch TV, to go to the gym or to pick up our laundry.
