Dragon’s Loyalty Award
I guess this must be my award season! For the second time this week, I have been nominated for an award, this time by Kira, over at Wrestling Life. She is a great supporter of my blog, and like me, seems to feel that poetry can be quite cathartic. She also said some very kind words about her nominees, like that she has drawn strengths from their posts and their encouraging comments. I always hope that something I write can help someone, either through laughter, or just by letting them know they aren’t alone.
I have to admit I am terrible at passing these things on though. It’s not because there aren’t many deserving bloggers out there, it’s because I get lazy. In general, I am not a lazy person. However, when it comes to making that damn list, with all the links to the blogs, I just don’t want to do it because it takes too much time. Piss poor excuse, huh? But, that’s the reason. Of course at some point, if I’m not feeling lazy, I can always pass the award on right?
With that said, it is still so nice to get the awards, and know that people are reading and appreciating my ramblings! And in the spirit of the award, and just because I like lists in general, I will share the seven unknown facts about me. Are you ready??
1. I shave my arms. It’s not that I am overly hairy, but I just don’t care for having body hair in general. Weird?? lol
2. My idea of dress shoes is a good pair of cowboy boots. I will put on a dress every once in awhile, but I am more comfortable in boots and jeans.
3. My favorite place to spend time is by the water. There is something about water that soothes the savage beast in me.
4. I have ADD. I have tried medicine for it, but I really don’t like taking pills if I don’t have to, so I just try to deal with it the best I can. I drive my mother crazy sometimes because I rarely finish one project without diving into another.
5. I wish I had enough money to get a tummy tuck. I think my tits still look pretty good, but it would be nice to have my tummy fixed after my recent weight loss. Plus, if I did, I could fit into another size smaller jeans. Feel badly for me and start taking up a collection, please.
6. I believe laughter can cure pretty much everything.
7. Even though I am a very competent swimmer, I have a fear of drowning.
*I reserve the right to pass this award on when I don’t feel so damn lazy.
As always you make me smile 🙂 I’ve contemplated a tummy tuck since I lost over 100 pounds. Have had the funds or the courage to pursue it!!!
OK you are amazing!!!
Thank you 🙂 I did it slowly and most of it has stayed off.
Congrats!! I had lost 80 after I had my son, but about 40 crept back on over an 11 time period. So I have taken off about 40 again and I would like to lose a few more. I feel okay with where I am at though.
And you are amazing too!! Yay for another award! And yay for being lazy… you’ve dealt with enough lately… taking a mental break is well deserved. 🙂
Thanks Mancakes! 🙂 I feel like this last 10 days has been a roller coaster of emotions. Along with the discovery that the man is a dirty cake fucker, something else happened too. It was something positive, but emotional all the same. I haven’t written about it yet, but will probably soon.
Congratulations on the weight loss! And I look forward to reading your positive news 🙂
Water soothes the savage beast in you and yet you have a fear of drowning?
Boy, you are an amazing enigma. 😉
That’s what I tell all the boys!! They all seem to be confused and confounded by me though. What am I doing wrong??
Use smaller words?
Well, if we’re talking about this last guy, I definitely needed to use smaller words! He was always asking me, “what does that word mean?”, so then I would tell him. He would say, “Well why didn’t you just say that?” For fuck’s sake, he used the word “gooder”!! I kind of like that word, but now he has spoiled it!! Deflowered it to the point where it feels disgusting and filthy coming out of my lips!! lol
Wow! Are in Arkansas? It’s funny and cute when they know they’re misusing it, but sad when oblivious. And if they say irregardless, run!
He does know he is misusing it, he likes to play dumb. He doesn’t want anyone to expect much out of him, says it’s easier that way. I guess it is if you prefer to live like a simpleton. One of the guys I work with uses irregardless all the time, and it makes me flinch!! Another one is when they use pacific, when they mean specific!! OMG!! And no, not Arkansas, just Kansas! lol
