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.
It's National Love Your Hair Day!! I figure this is especially appropriate for me, because of the crazy that resides in my hair. It's naturally curly, which means naturally frizzy, especially in this humidity. And I have a haircut today, so it'll be interesting to see what Joshua can do with this insanity. He's really good, though, and has taught me how to handle my curl families, so that they hang together and don't get too frizzy. Unfortunately in this kind of weather, my curl families are having family squabbles. And some bits of hair have decided to move out and not speak with their families.
This kind of stuff doesn't happen on normal people's heads, does it?
Fellow curly hair peep here. OMG, the humidity. About the only thing keeping mine from going to crazy is it is probably longer than it has ever been. Dry & curly, it's to my bra line. Stretched it's probably waist length. I need a cut, as the 3 inches not braided are getting too close and personal.
