Is It Really An Honor Just To Be Nominated?

 (go me... go me... go go go me.... ;p)

I was given a blog award recently, and have been absolutely horrible about doing anthing about it. (You sure I'm worthy of this one Starlight?) Anyway... apparently there are rules I must follow, and who am I to break the rules? (Don't answer that....)
The rules were/are as follows:

1.      Thank and link back to the person who gave this award to you. (√)

2.      Share 7 things about yourself (√ ok... here we go...)

1. I am a complete salad snob. I seek out restaurants based on the salads they serve, will make MASSIVE salads at home and live off them for 1/2 a week... and rarely are they the epitome of healthy.... oh, and I judge you when you use iceberg lettuce. ;p
2.  I will NEVER not think burps & farts are funny. My inner 8 yr old is strong.
3.  I am a stickler for proper grammar and spelling, but I absolutely love it when people just make up their own words to suit the situation, (my theory being that if you make up a word and people know what you meant, you've just made it a real word) and I rarely bother to re-check things I write for errors... even though I mess up all the time. Guess I'm basically a grammatical hypocrite?
4. I have been writing since childhood, and I find it to be the most cathartic thing in the world... but have a very hard time sharing the stories I write because they become so very personal to me.
5. I would kick puppies to have smaller feet. Even just a size 9 would make me happy... 'cause size 11 just plain sucks.
6. On an almost daily basis I want to get in a time machine and go scream "What are you crazy?!" at my adolescent self for not wanting to take a nap. Man I miss nap time.
7. I don't put much stock in horoscopes/star signs... but I have noticed that every female I've ever met that is a Cancer I have liked instantly, and every male I know that is a Cancer has the most intense mood swings I've ever seen. 

... and now back to the rules.....

3.     Award 15 recently discovered great bloggers (√ ...BUT since "recently" isn't fully defined, i.e what is recent? Past year? past week? yesterday? ... and 15? really? 15? Um... I'll be cheating a bit here.......I'm going with the 15 bloggers whose recent writing/posts I just dig, and who don't have 80 gazillion readers/followers. You know.. you should check them out.......go follow them too. I can't be the only person that appreciates & likes feedback from others.)
