My Blog is Sweet!

Yesterday I was awarded the Irresistibly Sweet Blog award by Piper of Chic & Cheap in Chicago.  The rules state to post seven random facts about yourself and then pass the award on to 15 other bloggers.  You guys have seen me rebel against the Blog Award Rulebook in the past, but I'll do my best...  ;)


Trying to think of seven new interesting things...
  1. I got picked on big-time in junior high school and the first two years of high school.  It wasn't until I went Goth that other kids finally left me alone.  I guess they knew I didn't fit in with the "normal" kids, and resented me for trying!
  2. I gave up TV almost 10 years ago, although sometimes I fall victim to a Netflix addiction.
  3. Cute illustrations of penguins never fail to make me squee.  I don't know why; I'm not really a fan of penguins in particular...  I wasn't even in to Happy Feet.
  4. I love genmaicha lattes.
  5. I hate the phone.  Text me, e-mail me, hit me up on Facebook, or come and talk to me face-to-face, but don't call me.  Time-sensitive communications are a different story, of course.  And family gets a break, but co-workers get chastised severely.  ;)
  6. I usually throw instructions away, or only refer to them after the fact.  It's more fun, and better exercise for your problem-solving skills, without them.  :-D
  7. I have trouble thinking of interesting facts about myself.
And I pass the award on to...
  1.  Okay, I hate this part because I can't ever pick, and to list them all would take me all day!!  :)  So I award this to all of my fellow bloggers.  If you are reading this, you're a Sweet Blogger in my book, so consider yourself awarded!  Did that just sound like an Academy Award acceptance speech?

I hate the phone too, it bothers me to talk on the phone. anything in person is much better.

My dislike of phones is so great that I'm pretty much phone-phobic. I only make exceptions for my Dad and Aunt.

That seems to becoming fairly common, people who'd rather not pick up the phone to talk [what a shame~ if I can't come to you across the country, how will you get to hear my Audio Erotica~?].

Though a Blog Award is nice and all... innovation.
