And eat chocolate!
I haven't figured out Pinterest yet -- got my invite, now trying to figure out what to do!
I guess these would work but number 2 and 3 would bring me way down!!!!
Ha, I'm with Gail! Numbers 2 and 3 would make me cry!
Bwahahaha! *wanders off with penguins dancing in her head*
Having a piping hot cup of fresh coffee helps, when we're not thinking about penguins.
Have a great weekend, Carol!
LOL! How about watching penguins dance naked in front of a mirror? *grin*
Crap, what about the penguins? Now I'm thinking about them...
Well isn't that peachy...now I'll be thinking about penguins all day. That may be a good thing. It will keep the image of me dancing naked in front of a mirror out of my mind.
Oh, no, I'm not dancing naked in front of the mirror. I mean, it might make other people laugh, but not me. :)
Hilarious! No naked dancing for me either. :)
OMG, Carol! Look how you have messed with our minds! I LOVE penguins, I think most people do because they're just so darn cute, especially when they w>ak<.
And what's with dancing in front the mirror naked??? It's not even very good WITH clothes on! :o
So...because now all I'll do is think about penguins? What a devious lady you are!
Okay, now all I can think about is penguins. Thanks a lot. :)
Have a great weekend.
What is about penguins? They truly are adorable.
Happy Friday!
Thanks for the chuckle. :)
Dear God, I'm thinking about Penguins. Thanks. Thanks for that!
I could dance naked in front of the mirror if I first poked my eyes out with hot irons.
I'm just saying.
And WHAT ABOUT THE PENQUINS?
Teresa
Aaaw penguins. Of course that is all I am thinking about and lines from Dr. Seuss books. Happy Weekend!!
Penguins. There are times in the year when I suffer from Penguin Guilt. When it's summer here and I know all those penguins are standing in that rugby-type scrum huddling against the freezing Antarctic wind - yes, Penguin Guilt. Don't judge me.
How did you know I look like a penguin when I'm dancing in front of a mirror? Julie
Colette - I haven't pinned anything either, but I love looking.
Gail - Pretend you're three.
Kyra - Maybe I'm just weird.
Laura - Waddle, waddle :)
Joanne - Coffee...the miracle beverage :)
Oh, I love Pinterest! Haven't figured it out yet. All I know is, I always come away smiling.
But penguins make me smile...
Hope no one dances naked with penguins in front of a mirror.
But I must think about penguins. They make me so happy. :)
Linda G - If anyone has ever seen a penguin without its tuxedo, I'm sure it's you, LOL!
Alex - There you go :)
Delores - See if there are penguins on Pinterest :)
Luanne - Dare you.
LR - Double dare you :)
Becky - I didn't say you had to watch. Close your eyes and let go.
Melissa - Sometimes I am.
Kathi - You're welcome :)
Emily - I know!
Ciara - That's what Fridays are for.
Aw, but penguins are cute . . .
Writing an online dating profile for a villain? Now that really sounds like fun. LOL.
Linda K - My pleasure :)
Teresa - LOL! Good payback for those creepy tarantulas.
Tracy Jo - Dr. Seuss will be happy :)
Elspeth - Send a sheep.
Julie - I won't tell.
VR - Same here. Let me know if you figure it out. Please :)
Liza - Me, too!
Donna - Might be a mess....
Medeia - Happy Feet.
Golden Eagle - Do it!
Writing an online dating profile for a villain? That is a great idea. Love to see that! Awesome x
Oh Carol - especially the penguins. My mum (gone for years) told us kids with great excitement about seeing the 'penguins' when she and Dad visited Florida. We gulped and then scratched our heads and then laughed and asked, "pelicans, perhaps?"
Madeleine - Give it a try!
Jan - Penguins, pelicans, whatev, LOL. Great story :)
I like # 4 and #5. But I don't think #2 and #3 would work for me. It would make me more depressed. Reading Dr. Seuss would be good.
Janet - We're all different :) That's a very good thing.
Hahaha loved your post. :-)
Thanks, Misha!
Yikes, I don't know about dancing naked in front of a mirror... that might be even more depressing! :)
You've made me grin with this post. Thank you!
Mmmmm... Not sure about any of these... The penguin thing is nice though... Such lovely creatures.
Ha! Dancing naked in front of the mirror wouldn't beat my blahs. It would seriously depress me! LOL!
I love to make a new dessert recipe ot beat my blahs--which is why no dancing in front of the mirror. It's a vicious cycle. :)
Talli - Grins are super :)
Pat - Just focus on the penguins :)
Jennifer - Well, it's so bad in front of my mirror I have to laugh.
Another great Friday list to make me laugh. A group of us were vacationing in Florida one year and started a story about a penguin named Curtis being with us. One of the guys could throw his voice and we had people looking in trash cans and such for a penguin. And believe it or not, we weren't drinking anything stronger than black coffee. It was just one of those times when we all acted like teenagers again. Have a great week.

Thoughts in Progress
How oh how, do you come up with these lists?! Well however, thank you! (Not thinking about penguins, not thinking about penguins...)
Lol! At penguins. I've been hearing a lot about David Gandy AND penguins on twitter lately with pictures ;)
Mason - What a great vacation!
Conda - Not a clue. It's there in my head.
Nas - Pictures? Maybe I need to check it out :)
Just catching up with this list and I cracked up about Urban Dictionary, I laugh whenever I visit that site. Dancing in front of the mirror, naked or not, would horrify me LOL.
I'm happily thinking about penguins now. :D
These are awesome! You come up with the best top 10s. LOVE 2 and 3 (wouldn't do them, but love the idea) and 4 and 5 are hilarious. Great idea!!!!
Tami
Julie - Keep focusing on the penguins :)
Thanks, Tami!
