Hurray for Mondays and Bloggerly Love!




Good morning space cadets. :)  It's a glorious Monday and four days till the weekend, at least for me.

FRIENDLY REMINDER.  IF YOU'RE FOLLOWING ME BUT I'M NOT FOLLOWING YOU, IT'S BECAUSE I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOUR BLOG OR SITE IT.  SEND ME AN EMAIL OR LEAVE ME A COMMENT PLEASE.  I HATE NOT FOLLOWING MY FOLLOWERS.


I thought I would start this day by mentioning the above seal.  I became a campaigner last week and didn't post the seal until today.  Figured this would make it more of a last minute reminder.  So hurry up and join Rachael Harrie at Rach Writes to get to know more fabulous blogs and fantastic writers.


Also, I have received this:


AND



These awards came fromValentina Hepburn over at Letters from Valentina.  Isn't that an great name...like an exotic actress who takes time to stir her pasta while hunky guy fans her with a fan made of feathers.  :) Stop by and say hi to her, Suzy, and Lily.


I guess this means I have to pass these on.


Here are the rules.


Thank and link to the person who nominates you...check.
Share seven random facts about you.
Pass award to 5 new found blogging friends.
Contact and congratulate the awarded Blogeroos.


What the heck can I tell you guys that you don't already know?


1.  I enjoy having spooky nightmares because in them I usually see myself beating up on the villain.


2.  I grew up in Florida but after years of watching sharkweek I'm scared each time I go swimming in the ocean.  Dipping my toes is cool though.  I'm also alergic to crustaceans.


3.  I'd rather be stuck in a petting zoo for hours than at a party.


4.  I like red wine and dark chocolate.


5.  I'm a naturalist...see myself connected to all of nature....that made Avatar the best movie ever.


6.  I love every single type of bread there is, and I don't eat any of them often...they'd be stuck to my ass if I did.  (What, that word is in the Bible.)


7.  I collect angels...so I always wanted to have a sunroom with angels, a pond with a makeshift waterfall, and in the center a pretty bench with a harp.  It's the place I disappear to when I'm meditating.  All things are real in my mind.


Now, passing these babies on to five lucky appreciated bloggers that I have not targetted before but have come around to make my day. 


NEW PEOPLE


1. Libby Heily.  She's funny, has one heck of a muse, and I find her writing extremely entertaining.  She also reminds me of one of my nieces.  Go say  hi to Libby.  http://libbyheily.blogspot.com


2. Jeff King.  He's a great writer.  So far his story seems pretty intense.  Like many of us, he'd love to to this stuff for a living.  Go pay him a visit.  http://authorsunion.blogspot.com


3. Jessica.  She's 14, and wow does she have an amazing imagination.  Check out her blog, especially that poem she wrote on Saturday.  http://writeskatedream-jmckendry.blogspot.com

4. Danette.  She's got that wandering mind, dreams of a place at the end of the world.  Hmm, I think we've been dreaming of the same place.  Check her out.  http://conch-to-be.blogspot.com/

5. Prerna.  She writes Paranormal Romance.  Well me too, when I'm not neck deep in Fantasy.  I just met her through the Campaign and would like to know more about her.  Go say hi.  http://prernapickett.blogspot.com

Now that will be all Bloggeroos.  Know that I love you all, but I can't pass on these awards to everybody.  I'd be here for weeks.  Have an awesome day!  ....^-^....

HAPPY WEDNESDAY!

 

The fabulous Alex Cavanaugh at Alex J Cavanaugh has given me this awesome award for constantly leaving comments on his blog. (Translation: Lurking at his blog at the crack of dawn) Alex is normally the first blog I visit each morning. His friendly, easygoing, movie-savvy guru attitude has me hooked...or it could just be his cool name. He's a genuinely nice guy. Did I use enough adverbs? Take that editors! Thanks again, Alex. I really appreciate it. You deserve this more than anyone for your dedicated blog-hopping.
 
Yes, I know it's been a week.  I should have passed it on long ago, but I had to admire the award, polish it, stick it under my pillow for a bit.
 
The way I see it I'm supposed to pass it on to someone who leaves repeated comments on my blog.  There are many of you who do that, and I appreciate you all.  So I decided to add a twist to this.  I'm going to pass on the award to someone I haven't awarded before, who not only comments, but leaves me some creative and hilarious comments.  And that person is...
 
Julie at Gypsy in My Soul.

This lovely, imaginative lady's humor cracks me up. I've found myself cackling on more than one occasion at her expert parries and wity comebacks. At times I feel like if I'm glancing in a mirror...except she's blonde. As an added bonus, she lives in Nebraska, real close to me. Beware, chances are we will run into each other one day.
 
Next:

After posting the panty meme I was Liebsterized twice again by Travis Mckensie at Magickless and Julie at the link listed above. It's safe to say I've been Liebstered up the butt. Thank you guys. You are the greatest and I do appreciate you.

*Rules
 Thank the giver and link back to the blogger who gave it to you.
*
Reveal your top 5 picks and let them know by leaving a comment on their blog.
*
Copy and paste the award on your blog.
*
Have faith that your followers will spread the love to other bloggers.
*
And most of all - have bloggity-blog fun!

Now, I'm passing these on to a few Newbies to my site to make them feel welcome.  These guys are:

Ruth at Welcome to Me
Doralyn at My Publishing Diary
 
Now you guys go out there, meet them, and spread the love.


Finally:
I went to a graveyard called Borders this weekend and couldn't buy a darn thing because it was too depressing, so I watched these movies instead.  Thought I would share.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules Poster Kid's big brother picks on him, and it is funnier than hell, really.  This is usually not my type of movie. 

The Resident Poster Woman moves into an apartment.  The owner turns out to be a peeping tom pervert.  He gets his at the end but it gets hairy.


Also, Blogger has been giving me trouble.  I hope this posts like it's supposed too.

That'd be all for today. Enjoy your Wednesday everyone. Funny how I'm not posting on Tuesday and Thursday but it seems like I'm cramming it all in on Wednesday. Huh. ...^-^....
