Last year I realized around end january that I had missed my 1 year presence-post on the forum.
Never mind ! I would save the celebration for one more year and do my best at a most celebratory 2-year-presence post ! I really would. From time to time during the year I thought of it with a bit of excited anticipation - as in "I'm going to take new pictures ! Write a great, long post full of before-after pics and all !".
And then ... well, I joined 01/12/2009, and we're the 02/06. Ahem.
So I came to terms with the fact that I will probably be unable to do any of this at the right time, ever, and come to think of it, since a phone call to my mom to say "happy birthday !" on my part is considered pretty much on time if I am able to do it within the right month, it was quite a wise decision to write this post, instead of postponing to one year later again.
So, what's new ? Not much. I just measured and I'm 148 cm (58.3 inches) at the longest, 145 average (but I keep the longest as "official profile measurement", oh vanity). I was pretty sure I had hit terminal so it came as a pleasant surprise. Since knee I really haven't much of an idea of what goes on back there, anyway.
What do I owe to LHC : interest and knowledge of natural products, although my willingness to pursue seriously some regimens is not always the best. The ability to go into benign neglect mode without anymore guilt - yay. And most important of all, I think, is : awareness. I mean, there might be a tiny gap between awareness and vanity, and maybe I do cross this gap from time to time (ahem ...), but darn, it feels good. So I thank you guys for being my alibi for allowing myself (treating myself ?) with a bit of self-congratulation and vain pampering. So there.
Oh and I'll take new pics soon. I will :D !
