Offset creates un-fillet-able geometry

I created text, then exploded it so I can use an offset to thicken it up (let me know if there's a better way).

The resulting offset creates two points incredibly close to each other which is preventing me from placing a fillet on the resulting extrusion.

 

It doesn't seem that the resulting sketch lines are editable in any way.  What can I do?  I need to delete one of those points and connect the profile.

Can you use placed Fillet Features rather than Sketch Fillets?

 

I also am wondering if you could use Thin Feature Extrude or Shell rather than offset of a sketch?
