She lost her 2-year-old!

I just visited a new reader's blog, Shrinking Laura, and found a post I found rather amusing - Laura underwent gastric bypass in July (a rather appropro topic, considering my last post) and when she lost 25lbs, she compared it to shedding the equivalent of a two-year-old. Which is both funny and impressive. Here, she offers a comparison chart for other weight losses, so the next time you reach a goal of, say, losing 5lbs, you can trip people up by frantically asking, "Have you seen my Chihuahua, Blondieboots?!"

I knew the dofus kamas so I always try my best to earn them more and more to make myself strong. I have never played the game before, at the beginning I did not know what is so I went to kill the monsters with the kamas that I earned with myself in the game. I will duty bound to a friend to help brush the dofus gold together with my friends. I spend a good relationship is then fly to tears. If my levels are very high, I can go to buy dofus kamas more and more and I will not depend on my friends to help me to earn them. I get some cheap kamas as the gifts to encourage me.
