Award!

I must say...I am very lucky to have so many wonderful blog readers and in turn many of those readers have some fabulous blogs! Because of that I have received another blog award! I feel very lucky to have so many people who enjoy what I write about. It makes me feel a little less crazy knowing that others actually like what is going on in my head!

Without further ado my newest award!



I received this award by the wonderful Cassie over at Understated. She cooks...man does she cook. I drool a lot when I go over there. I've already "threatened" that I may show up at her house so she can feed me. I have to agree when she says that if we lived close that we would be best friends. Cassie, if you're a stalker...I'm a stalker! Can we be long distance BFFs?

Here are the rules:

Accept and thank the person who gave it to you!
List 10 things about yourself
List 5 additional things you DON'T like
Then pick ten people to give this lovely award to!

Man these list things about myself stuff is hard...

1. I own such a vibrant array of clothing that if I wanted I could split my piles of laundry into separate colors. Now when I say could...I actually mean that I have done that.
2. I got to see the Hubble Space Telescope. No not in a picture...as in I got to see it in person! I have a cousin who works for Lockheed Martin and he took us on a tour of where he worked. That means I got to see the HST in the largest clean room I have ever seen (like I've seen tons of clean rooms)!
3. Minus my skating, I'm the least athletic person you'll ever meet. This may have something to do with my pension to fall down a lot, randomly at that.
4. I've actually won state yearbook awards for my photography. Don't be fooled by my lackluster point and shoot photos!
5. I'm oddly good at dressing and undressing mannequins. This might have something to do with years of my life spent in retail. Once upon a time you could find me in a display window with my butt pressed up against the glass putting pants on a mannequin. Oh yeah...you know you want to picture it!
6. I drink iced tea like a fiend. I almost always order it when we eat out and I make sun tea at home.
7. I'm mathematically challenged. I actually did poorly on my reading for my SAT because it always came after the math and by then my mind had shut down.
8. I love the way a new bouncy ball smells fresh out of the vending machine. I can and will smell them for hours. I own a crap ton of bouncy balls because of this odd addiction.
9. I've shown up at the Air Force Academy wearing my German beer wench costume just because it was a friend's birthday. My outfit distracted a student so much that he ran into a wall.
10. Sometimes when I have to pee...I dance. Not the legs crossed kind...more of a boogie down, butt shaking dance.

1. I don't like kids. I think I was born without the mommy gene. I see them and a small part of me freaks out.
2. I don't like nuts. The texture bugs the crap out of me.
3. I don't like women who don't know how to walk in heels. That dragging noise they make as they drag their heels bugs me to no end.
4. I don't like the feeling of foam (like on hangers and those mattress pads). It makes my skin crawl.
5. I don't like Crocs...actually I loathe Crocs. I think they are the ugliest footwear I have ever seen.


Okay so I know that I am supposed to pick ten people to give this award to, but I am being a rebel and giving it to all of my blog readers. So take it...enjoy...post about it so I can enjoy learning about you!
