Singer who runs a smidge
The "Penguin" daily threads were originally conceived to emphasize that all members of the community have a place on the boards. Encouragement, motivation, a little love nip (you will love one, give it a try!) or even a little kick in the pants when needed -- it can happen here. Basically, we celebrate just getting out there and moving our tails! What is "slow"? "Slow" is a perception but one of the common benchmarks is the 10:00/mi pace; but there's no firm line. In fact, there are many of us that have slipped past this, and just hope that no one notices and revokes their "igloo privileges." And some penguins don't run at all, we just hang out for the company! It can be confusing for the forum newbies, but we're not one of the teams in any of the fine games. It's a totally open group, so stop lurking, post an introduction of yourself dive in and join the fun! No application necessary! There might even be a lovely picture for Scotty (we love pics!)
When it's all said and done, no one remembers how far we have run. The only thing that matters is how we have loved.
Today is Rosa Parks Day, although apparently there's also a Rosa Parks Day on February 4th. Which is all good, I think, she definitely deserves two days!! I'm re-reading a book about introversion, and some attention was given to the combination of Rosa Parks, known as a quiet woman with incredible integrity, and Martin Luther King Jr, who was very much an extroverted and charismatic speaker. Neither one would have been as successful without the other.
Docket, how was the concert?
Morning! Barely slept but Lady Gaga was so worth it! She did an awesome concert. Worth seeing her if only once.
I have Pilates and 6 miles tonight.
Bugsy was starving when I got home and he ate one full can of ID (small cans). I gave him two this morning. No wonder the vet called him a garbage can... Sucker had the antibiotic via the food so now I don't have torture him anymore (I felt he was crying because his stomatitis was hurting when I put the syringe in, so this is better).

As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.

We should celebrate Rosa Parks every day, so twice a year is good with me.
D - I'm glad that Bugsy is eating well. That's always a good sign.
