Went fishing with my 17 year old nephew tonight. He’s a good kid. We had fun. We caught 6 catfish in an hour and half. Big ones too. The last one had a snake hanging out of it’s mouth. We were done fishing after that. It stunk too. It was so nasty.

Wellllllp, I unquit my tri today.
About a month ago I decided that I wasn’t going to do it because I didn’t have enough time to really get ready.
I have way less time now, but I can complete the distance without dying. It will probably take around 2.5 hours (pathetic) but if I work on it for the next 4 weeks, I’ll probably be okay. I decided that I can’t let fear run my life anymore.
Also, if I keep...
