And The Award(s) Go To….

ME!

I have been presented with some awards. Awards for blogging. I have seen these little award avatars on other people’s blogs, but … you know … I never really knew what the hell they really meant, or if these so called “awards” were really handed out or created fictitiously by the blogger themselves. I am new to the blog-o-sphere outside of myspace. Sue me.

Apparently these things are real and now I haz 3.

woo hoo

Award #1: Queen of All Things Awe-Summ, given to me by Just A Girl.

queen-of-awesome

The stipulation of award acceptance is that I name seven (7) things that make me uber-awesome. (Trust me. I know saying uber should strip me of my awesomeness but I am so awesome that I am untouchable … so …)

1) I have a piercing that you can only see if you have *also* seen my vagina.
2) I don’t mind being the bad guy. Ever.
3) I have a 6th sense for penis size prediction.
4) I kick ass. Literally.
5) I was not born with a filter. Some say defect, I say blessing. Tomayto/Tomahto.
6) I swing.
7) Uhm, have you met me!? Nuff said.


I pass this Queen of All Things Awe-summm Award on to:

Miss Tricky
LiLu
The Black Tulip

You bitches rock my socks.


Award #2: Keepsake Blog Award, given to me by Pretty Little Tangents

keepsakeblog

The stipulation of the acceptance of this award is that I post a sweet and funny keepsake that tells a little something about me.

So hear it goes.

All of you should know by now that I have 2 beautifully bratty kids. Xavier is my first born, Charli my baby girl. What many of you probably don’t know is that before Charli, I had 2 miscarriages while we were trying to get pregnant.

So the fact that she came, in this perfect little caramel colored package was icing on the cake for us. Xavier was an easy baby. She, is as difficult as they come … but because of the struggle to have her, and that I wanted her to be a part of our family so badly … she and I have this special bond.

Now that she is growing up and we are able to actually go and do things because she can walk and (kinda) talk, she and I do a great deal together. Where I go, she goes. One of the things that we do is go for walks. Charli loves to collect rocks. It doesnt matter if they are pretty, or if they are a handful of gravel on the side of the road. Charli gets just as excited.

A few weeks ago, she discovered the dandelion seeds. When we would go for walks, she absolutely HAD to stop and blow each one. I was practicing photography for my class and began to just take pics of her.

(Sidenote: Charli HATES having her picture taken. She literally runs from the camera)

I snapped this pic:

And I turned it into:

charlihand

And this one just makes me smile:

What do these keepsakes say about me? That 1) I love pictures 2) I love my kids and 3) Pictures are keepsakes within themselves.

I am supposed to name 10 bloggers, but I cant so I wont.

Just A Girl @ Allconsumingego
Jody @ But Momma

Award #3: The Honest Scrap Award given to me by Breezy

The stipulation of acceptance is to write 10 honest things about me.

1) I would be a lesbian before I married another man if D and I were to divorce.
2) I dont usually like other people’s kids.
3) I am addicted to reality television.
4) And coffee.
5) And sex.
6) I wake up with my hands smelling like my vagina. This has occurred since before I can remember.
7) I have a quirky taste in white boys.
8) I would rather tell a joke than have a serious conversation.
9) I <3 nakedness.
10) I blog/read blogs/facebook more than I work. And now, I am freaking out because people are asking questions. Will I stop? Nope. I will just learn how to multi-task better.

My award recipients:

F.B.
J.P.
Therapy is Effin Expensive
Pretty Little Tangents

Enjoy the tidbits of info I have provided. If you are on here, take it for what you want. Do it, pass it on, dont, whatev. I just kinda like ya and wanted to share you with my own little piece of the blogosphere.

Lastly, I have a statement and a goal.

Statement: Although the Public Memorial of Michael Jackson was a circus, the actual memorial service was both touching and respectable. I appreciated each thoughtful memory as well as the tributes to his life in photographs. I broke down a couple of times, and was deeply saddened when his beautiful daughter choked out her obviously deep devotion to her father. I wish her and her 2 brothers nothing but joy in their futures.

Goal: Find and read other bloggers. I feel like I am stuck in this blog-basement where I am only able to see through gated windows. I need more to read. Please recommend your favorite blogs here… as well as if you are a lurker and you have a blog I should be reading… link here.

XoXoX!

    I’d say your awards were well-deserved.

    I miss the blogosphere — both blogging and reading more blogs so I’ve got no one to share with you. This makes me sad.

    “I don’t mind being the bad guy. Ever.” <– me too!!! I volunteer at work to be the bad guy. Folks laugh, but I love it, and it keeps them from having to do it with people they need to deal with on a regular basis.

    "I was not born with a filter" <– again, me too! I just say there's no filter between my mind & mouth, and just accept that and move on.

    HAVE I SAID I'M FUCKIN EXCITED ABOUT VEGAS YET?????? OMG 2 days, and I can't wait. I'm finishing laundry today so I can have my pareo at the pool, and I'm finishing the wax job on my car so it looks goooooooooooood while I'm driving. Tomorrow I do my hair and at 4:45am Friday morning I roll out to get KT.

    Zandria Reply:

    Oh, and as far as blog recommendations, I must say, you and I read most of the same blogs, but one that really stands out is Steam Me Up Kid…I’m slow and don’t know how to link, so I will just post the URL for her site. She is off-kilter, sarcastic as hell, and sometimes totally inappropriate, but she is absolutely hilarious. Go check her out when you can.
