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 World Hello Day, so hello! It's also Alascattalo Day, which is a day to honor Alaskan humor. The mascot is the alascattalo, which is apparently a cross between a moose and a walrus. I guess you have to be there to understand.
Anyway, hope Jim and Ginny are feeling better!!
One more day, and I'm on vacation!!
Now, will I get all three of my reports written and billed today? Yes, yes I must!!
Morning! Pilates and 6 with 2 @ MP tonight.
And here is a picture of Bugsy. He was pissed when I picked him up from the vet and he was lovey last night, but very grumpy this morning.

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.

HM - enjoy your very long weekend. Are you going anywhere?
URD here. Jim's stomach virus got to me in the middle of the night. I spent most of the day in bed, without enough energy to even read. I hate being sick.
