An award! For me? There must be some mistake.

Hmmmmmmmmmm.

The lovely Melissa Francis, published author, MILF and all around phenomenal woman, was kind enough to gift me with the Kreativ Blogger Award. I love awards, so much so that I don’t seem to mind the stupid misspelling of this one. Seems she likes me, she really likes me! Wheeeeeeeeee!

kreativblog-754322

Without further ado, and with no more trashing of the award name, here are the rules for the award:

1. Thank the person who nominated you for this award.
2. Copy the logo and place it on your blog.
3. Link to the person who nominated you for this award.
4. Name 7 things about yourself that people might find interesting. (see below)
5. Nominate 7 Kreativ Bloggers.
6. Post links to the 7 blogs you nominate.
7. Leave a comment on each of the blogs letting them know they have been nominated.

THANKS, MEL!

Thanks given, logo up, linkies done…and now I am to name seven things that yinz might find interesting. Are you serious? I am an open book and probably have already written about all my interesting crap before now (I take my own washcloths when I travel and don’t stay at a hotel, my bra is big enough to fit a grown woman’s entire head, I keep my Mom’s ashes in my spare bedroom, etc.). What is new that you might want to know? Let’s try these:

  1. Roses are my least favorite flower (I prefer daisies and sunflowers ANY day).
  2. When I was about 20 or 21 years old I walked around the block naked in a rain storm.
  3. Most nights I sleep on my incredible couch with both dogs instead of in my brand new queen sized bed.
  4. I don’t talk to my biological father, but his brother is my favorite person in this whole world.
  5. My Mom’s mom would read my palm when she got to drinking beer at family reunions when I was little. And I got my ears pierced at a family reunion by an aunt using a needle and a potato when I was five.
  6. While I truly don’t care what most people think of me (clothing, body, attitude, financial status, etc.), I also rarely believe people when they tell me that I am a breath of fresh air…probably because so many people tell me that so often that it seems insincere.
  7. My house is my (VERY messy / dirty) sanctuary and I don’t like to let anyone in…family, friends, workers, no one.
  8. For a long time I thought I didn’t know how to flirt until it was pointed out that I flirt with EVERYONE, including men, women, children and animals.

Shit, now I need to nominate others? Don’t people hate memes and awards and chain mail? Well, rules are rules so I am nominating and linking:

Britt of Miss Britt (you all know her, but she so deserves this award so I am giving it)

Gwen of Everything I Like Causes Cancer (she might call me a monkey, but I just love her blog)

Jen of Run Jen Run (her photo booth series make me so happy!)

Adam Avitable of Avitable.com (I know of no other who is even remotely close to this creative!)

Heather of A Coal Miner’s Granddaughter (coolest self proclaimed dork who’s a mom and does paranormal investigations EVER)

BBM of Burgh Baby (she takes wonderful photos of her child and dogs, but writes in a manner that gets me every time)

Nanna of That’s a Nanna (the woman makes me feel like I am reading a blog my Mom would have written so there was just no way to leave her off of this list!)

Mike of LeSombre (crazy Canadian who makes me laugh)

Faiqa at Native Born (love the intelligence, wit and perspective)

Yes, I know that was eight for both facts and bloggers, but there I go, being all Kreativ. I mean, I could have kept going. You are lucky I stopped where I did. Especially with the bloggers.  Sheesh…what about Finn, Hilly, etc.? Hate this limited naming crap.

Fuck, now I have to leave comments on the nominated bloggers’ sites? Good thing I read these folks daily anyhow!

 

Thanks

Just wanted to stop over here to say thanks to everyone who sent a text or email or called to make sure I am ok. Reno is my last trade show stop and then it is back home where I can catch up with all of you. Until then, I am working and hanging in here.

XOXO

 

Drooling

Jester sent me a message via Twitter late last night (early this morning?).

jestertunestwitter @hellohahanarf please tell me you saw your boyfriends opening number on snl.

I had been at Cinderella’s house, watching movies and bullshitting, so unfortunatley I missed it. And honestly, I can’t remember the last time I actually watched Saturday Night Live. I figure if something is funny, soomeone will post the clip to Hulu or YouTube and I catch it that way.

I went looking for last night’s monologue and found Dwayne Johnson hosting on March 7, 2009. Not sure if last night was a rerun, but oh my fuck, check this out:

I love that one of the guys in the band claps after he belts out a line. I love the way he says “satin shoesies” with a smile. I love that his shirt gets ripped off. And I absolutely love, like watched multiple times love, love that he turns around and dances that immaculate ass for me. Bam!

Dreams really do come true, my friends.

 

Need Your Power, Internet

Three years ago at midnight on the 12th of April my Mom died. Right now my beloved Reillymonster is sick. He is only nine years old, but has a nasty infection in his eyes. I am trying not to overreact, trying to breathe and remember that it is probably “only” an eye infection. It isn’t easy.

I was able to secure an appointment on Wednesday with his vet, but it would mean a lot to me if you guys could pray for his fast healing. It is not over dramatic to say my mental stability depends on Reilly’s health.

I know a lot of us don’t worship the same God, but if you could all please talk to your God on behalf of my little Reilly, I would really appreciate it.

Vet appointment is at 4:15 PM. I’ll let you know more as soon as I know more.

Thanks.

xoxo

Tim Makes Me Laugh

Ξ April 7th, 2009 | → 4 Comments | ∇ Uncategorized |

A few years ago I was working the same trade show that happens every early April. Incredible people. Really good and fun show. One night a ton of us were hanging out at the hotel bar, telling stories and laughing until our sides hurt. I asked one of the quickest guys who his top five famous fucks would be. (You know, if you could sleep with anyone who is a movie star, on TV, in politics, a musician, a sports star or whatever, who would they be?) So in front of a huge crowd I ask who Tim would do. His immediate response? “Mr. T, Chewbacca and the three little pigs.” Made me pee a little at the lack of hesitation.

I leave for Atlanta first thing Friday morning. My favorite trade show of the year is this weekend. Monday night I will be on a plane back home, but there is so much to do today and every day until I get home.

The next few days might bring drunk blogging, maybe a few photos…I’m not sure. Just figured I should warn yinz, that’s all.
