Passionate Blogger II

Ana gave me this and, as mentioned previously, I've been a bit tardy about paying it on...



Anyway, here are my five awardees:

1. Sairs, at This Lunatic Express
2. Jessie, at Synecdoche
3. Petal, at Don't Let Her Eat Cake
4. Nicole, at Among the Garbage and the Flowers; and
5. maryhadalittlelamb, at Dancing Through the Void

Congratulations to all.

The usual rules apply:
1. Stick the above graphic on your sidebar;
2. write a post celebrating the occasion, which should acknowledge the giver;
3. pick at least five blogs you think deserve a gong and include them in the post referred to in 2., above;
4. tell your awardees that you've given them the award.

Inspirational Blogger Award II

Stephany gave this to me, erm... some time ago...



I thought it was about time I paid some of my awards on, so I'll have a go at that, over the next couple of weeks. These are my five nominees for Inspirational Blogger, which is the longest overdue, in terms of paying on:

1. Jazz, at Jazz in Pieces
2. Aqua, at Vicarious Therapy
3. Clare, at Three Beautiful Things
4. Bigassbelle, at Big Ass Belle
5. Rodger Dodger, at Rodger Dodger

I wish I could tell you why I picked these... They just struck a chord, I guess - I'll let you know which one, if I ever work it out!

Anyway, congratulations. I think the usual rules apply...

1. Stick the above graphic on your sidebar;
2. write a post celebrating the occasion;
3. pick at least five blogs you think deserve a gong and include them in the post referred to in 2., above;
4. tell your awardees that you've given them the award; and
5. er, that's it, I think.

Beautiful Blogger Award

Many, many thanks to Herad at Access Denied, who's just given me this...

Procrastinator that I appear to be, I've got quite a few of these backed up, now, which I ought to pass on...

Most Inspirational Blog Award

Ana's very kindly given me an award:

There are things that I've inspired that I would rather not have done. Disdain, derision, outright hatred sometimes, although nobody feels the need to explain these feelings that they have, other than to the extent that it is my fault. There are odd moments when I feel hurt by that, but less and less these days, I'm pleased to report. One can't win against a person who is agreeing with one - if one tries, it backfires very badly. That's a truth that a few people could benefit from acknowledging.

Anyway, I digress - I'll do some research and find some blogs to pass this on to.

Passionate Blogger

Ana, at Hella Heaven, has very kindly given me a Passionate Blogger award. I do like these awards, I have to say - I dunno, it feels like an arbitrary act of simple kindness, or something!

I've been a bit lazy about looking for blogs to pay them on to, but I'll get round to it, sooner or later.

Inspirational Blogger Award

It seems that I am inspirational, now! I must be careful what I inspire:



Anyway, many thanks to Stephany, at Soulful Sepulcher. I'll pay it on when I've had an opportunity to research some blogs.
