first, it's the marie antoinette award, which looks a bit like this:
i am not sure exactly what connection lies between the 18th century french aristocracy and 21st century online journaling ...and if i see a guillotine coming my way i am OUTTA HERE...nevertheless i say,♥ merci beaucoup! ♥
the second award is this one:
and as part of the ceremony i am meant to list five of my addictions. which is really hard for me...to narrow them down, i mean! but here goes:1. i-pod, i-pod, i-pod: mine finally and irretrievably died on tuesday night and by the time i got to best buy yesterday afternoon i was a walking re-enactment of the less amusing scenes from trainspotting. seriously.
2. t'internet: it's not that i'm online all the time. it's just that i need to be ABLE to be online all the time. yes, there is too a difference! ok, it's really more of a (largely theoretical) moral high ground.
3. caffeine: i don't drink, smoke, take drugs, cheat on lovely husband jeff or play the ponies. get between me and the coffeepot between 7:30 & 9AM and you're taking your life in your hands. you've been warned.
4. books: to tell the truth, i'd've not even clocked this as an addiction if kristie hadn't listed it as one of hers. for me, saying, "i'm a reader" is like saying, "i breathe every day". since the second grade i've never not been in the middle of a book, with a stack from the library next to the bed.
5. art & art supplies: potentially there are 5...or 500...addictions within this addiction, but lemme sum up: i **NEED** to make stuff! preferably involving paper and glitter and weird old vintage bits, but in a pinch i will crochet or knit or stitch or photshop stuff...
and now technically i am supposed to pass these prizes on to other bloggers, but how OH HOW could i possibly narrow down to just a few of my nearest and dearest online friends???! so instead i will just say, if you are reading this, please know that *I KNOW* you are
fabulous
talented
inspirational
regal
and deserving of all good things!
now get out there
and grab y'all
and grab y'all
SOME WEEKEND, darlings!!!
LOL...I too wondered about the Marie Antoinette award...but I couldn't find out anything about it! I did mention to my PSF (hehehehe) that I was very honoured...as long as she didn't think that I needed to have my head chopped off!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of vintage...got some COOL vintage goodies in the post this week...shall be trying to do something vintage-y and collage-y very soon....stay tuned :)
Yes I too have an addiction to art and craft supplies.... oh dear
ReplyDeleteYou have the nicest most fun to read posts (and comments). This is what I have loved about you since I first found your blog. (Please don't misunderstand, the cards and 3BT journals and other art is a very close second place!) You are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteAhhhh replace i-pod with food and you and I would have the same list, Missy!
ReplyDeleteIt is quite an honor to have so much in common with your royal fabulousness!
