It's An Awarding Experience

I interrupt your regularly schedule blog reading with a dramatic statement...

I do love me some awards!

The first one comes from Dude Write, everyone who follows me should know Dude Write by now, if you don't...get out from under the rock, head over there, read ALL of the blog posts, come back when voting opens and cast your THREE votes for your favorite Dude Bloggers.  Ahem, sorry for the rant...anyway I received the Platinum Award from Dude Write (for the third time I might add) for my Your Family Is Anorexic post.
Dude Write
I hear they may change the name to the Who Woulda Thought? Award
The second award I received is from Mod Mom over at Mod Mom Beyond IndieDom.  I've talked about her before but it bears repeating.  She is an awesome blogger and wicked funny, she has some fantastic views on various topics and not to mentions she has some great drink recipes too!  She is headed to the BlogHer Conference in New York this weekend so I want to wish her luck, especially in her arm wrestling match against Martha Stewart.  She has nominated me for the Rockin' Blogger Award which means I rock (and I don't mean the Camaro).
I think I'm the first dude to get this...but the pink bow and skull are cute...

The rules are wicked simple AND you don't have to play a silly 2,756 Questions Game or sacrifice a pygmy to Lui the god of sun:

  • Pass The Award To Other Rockin' Bloggers

Here Are The Nominees From Me:

Because nobody likes Mondays
She hasn't been blogging much this summer, but she is the female version of me, you'll love her.

Besides being a fun read and a blog I can relate to, he "loves" getting awards...I can't wait to see what he does with this one

We now return back to your regularly scheduled blog reading.

  3. Thanks, Kevin. I'm never very good at following up on these award things so I'm glad this one takes minimal effort. We're cleaning and packing all day today, tomorrow is an an all day party for a Marine friend getting transferred to D.C., and Sunday we leave another one of our many, MANY vacations - a two week cruise to Alaska. I'll try to stay connected but don't be surprised if I fall off the grid for a while.
