So a new reader, LunaNik from Secrets of a Black Heart, has given me an award. I am so flattered. Especially since she compared my blog to heroin, which she totally meant as a compliment. She is cool like that. Anyway, here it is:
I so love getting awards. Not only does it mean that at least one person out there likes me, it also means I get to pass the award on. I get to spread the love. . .just like my award says! (Yes, I know I just said I was passing it on, but much like a former Miss America clinging to her crown, there’s a part of me that wants to show off just one more time) Anyway, there are so many people I could give this award to – I read a lot of blogs and pretty much all of them deserve this award. But then I realized the work involved in giving the award to everyone I know in blogland and decided to narrow the list down a bit.
So then I thought about giving this award to the blogs that are my heroin. But I pretty much always give those blogs awards. And it’s not that I don’t still love all my favorites, but I thought maybe this time I would share the love with some newer reads.
So Many Birds, Just One Stone A fairly new blogger, but any young woman with a crush on Gene Kelly has got to be cool.
Diary of a Modern Matriarch Thought provoking posts mixed in with lots of humor.
I could keep going. But these are my two newest favorites (that I think will actually appreciate the award, I know some of the big-time bloggers get awards all the time and find them a challenge, not a pleasure).

Yay, you, jersey…. I would’ve said it’s like crack…. hmmmm…. maybe I’m a lower class blogger…. interesting….
And I can’t agree more with nominating Colleen – don’t you just love her?

Andreanna – You’re welcome!
AFF – Thank you. I do love the bling!
Merry – You’re not a lower class blogger, you’re just more economical.
And thank you! And I think it was you who introduced me to Colleen, so thanks for that too.
Leslie – Thank you.
Also, Leslie/AFF/Merry – It was REALLY hard for me not to pass the award to you guys, but I decided to try something new.

I’m pleased to tell you that you have received yet ANOTHER award. The Caffeine Court “Slammin’ Post Award” You are on a roll!
As a fellow New Jerseyan I knew exactly the type of women you were describing. I only hope I wouldn’t freak you out too much if you saw my white legs in my tennis skirt mid-winter. Maybe I’m freaky too!!

Have to laugh at Merry’s comment…
“I would’ve said it’s like crack…”
hehehe…that’s funny…
just so happens heroin was rampant in the little town I grew up in so that was my immediate reference point…I’ll use crack next time
