Superior Scribbler Award!

Hey you! Guess what? I've gotten a "blog award" from author extraordinaire R.M. Gilbert. Can't say I know what it means, but what the heck? I'm EXCITED!

This award originated from The Scholastic Scribe, whose father suggested she sign up for the high school journalism program because she wasn’t strong in math.

And as anyone who’s been in the blogosphere more than a week knows, the award comes with a few rules. (1) I must confess to 10 things you might not know about me and (2) I must pass this award on to a few other lucky recipients. Got it? Let’s go…

So...I don't think I'm that interesting, but here goes:

1. I hate pruney hands, so I wear obnoxious yellow dish gloves ANYTIME my hands might get wet. (Other than washing the hands, of course.)

2. When I was six, I ate so much cauliflower that I puked. Now I can't look at the stuff without getting queasy.

3. I was the first woman to earn a blue belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu in the state of Alaska. Hopefully I'll keep going and get the purple, brown, and black...but we'll see.

4. I hate it when the insides of my elbows are touched. Ick.

5. I was in the USMC for a few years. It was hell.

6. Afraid of flying = me.

7. Obsessed with Golden Girls. It's like my junk food/prozac/ and alcohol all wrapped into one. I love watching reruns!

8. When I was little, I made my family call me "Daisy" for about a month. I loved the "Dukes of Hazzard," what can I say?

9. I hate the dark. I have nightlights everywhere in the house.

10. I love fart jokes. It's a favorite pastime for my son and I. (I know, I know...grow up, Harper...)

The coolest part of these awards is that you pass them on.

So here are the next victims:
