Kick Ass Bloggers

by

Kick Ass Blogger Mattt put me down for this award. Thanks Mattt! {{luv}}

Here’s the Rulez;

Choose 5 bloggers that you feel are “Kick Ass Bloggers”
Let ‘em know in your post or via email, twitter or blog comments that they’ve received an award
Share the love and link back to both the person who awarded you and back to MammaDawg
Hop on back to the Kick Ass Blogger Club HQ to sign Mr. Linky then pass it on!

Of course with these awards you can’t link to everyone you feel deserves it and some have already been listed so in no particular order and no disrespect to those not listed;

  1. Hope & Onions: though currently unable to write to her blog, even as an archive it is valuable.
  2. The Apophatic Attic: Go. Read. You’ll thank me.
  3. Pogge: A level of writing and discourse I can only aspire to.
  4. In The House and Senate: 900 ft of goodness.
  5. Blind Man With A Pistol: Just be careful where you stand. 😉


So keep reading and keep writing and remember

Meme: Or damn I have to run faster!

JJ tagged me with the Share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself, meme.

Don’t know who will suffer more in this scenario, me or anyone reading!

1) I love to sing, can remember words, can’t carry a tune in a bucket.

2) I love steak. Nice thick juicy steak covered in mushrooms and onions, with baked potato, crispy salad and HP sauce..mmm

3) I had a catholic babysitter for awhile when I was quite young and for a short time harboured a desire to be a nun. OK STOP FUCKING LAUGHING! (6)

4) I hate, detest, loath the game monopoly.

5) I’ll have been married 22 years this July. 😮

and the number 6 thing about is….. I enjoy keeping my blog, even though hardly anyone reads it.

Tag.. I’m it

Politics’n’Poetry has tagged me for the 8 things meme. (I’ll have to work on my running 😉 )

The rules are as follows:

• Each player creates a list of eight random personal facts/habits.
• At the end of your post, list eight people who you want to tag to also do this meme.
• People who are tagged will write their own list of eight personal facts/habits and, if they have a blog of their own, post these rules and their list.

    1. I really enjoy playing Animal Crossing

    2. I survived an attempted murder

    3. Of all the variations I prefer CSI Las Vegas

    4. I can’t stand flavoured coffees

    5. I didn’t have a female best friend until I was 16

    6. I still love to play on the swings

    7. I didn’t get my drivers licence till I was in my 30’s

    8. I love the smell of fresh air and sunshine on line dried clothes and have fond memories of my mom bringing in clothes off the line which were frozen stiff and could stand on their own.

    I’m going to go against the meme and not name anyone, but if you’d like to do your eight let me know so I can link to you.

The premise

List seven songs you are into right now, no matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they’re not any good but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your blog along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they’re listening to.

The List

1.Pretty much anything by James Blunt (love his voice)
2.Joe Hill Joan Baez version
3.Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon (entire album)
4.Flippin’ the Bird by Tea Leaf Green
5.Crying Like A Church On Monday by New Radicals
6.He’s a dick by Golden Smog
7.Mad World by Gary Jules

I won’t tag anyone else because some of the people I know hate tags and some are mean and would hit me with virtual keyboards. 😉

But if you feel inspired….
