It is odd to me that right now I am winning any kind of award. It isn’t that I don’t appreciate the acknowledgement, I am just in transition. Everything is just bouncing off the the giant steel enforced, Great Wall of China like structure rising up before me. The award is amazing. I really appreciate it.
Dark Jade created and honored me with the Reader Appreciation Award. There were no rules to go along with the award so to be honest I am uncertain if I am meant to pass it on. If I am I want to pass it along to everyone who is reading this post. Your support in this difficult time has been immeasurably appreciated and you have all helped in your own way, even if it is just tolerating my lack of posts, interminable whining and and current disregard for writing anything that addresses the purpose of this blog.
I fear I have lost some readers. I regret that and hopefully I can win them back but so many of you have stuck it out and continued to support me even as my blog temporarily teeters on the edge of the abyss. I haven’t abandoned my lifer, my dreams or the ultimate purpose of my blog. I have just been… otherwise occupied.
I am still here in all my snarky, egotistical glory. I am still the same girl suffering through my questionable choices, sharing my wisdom so that you might make better informed decisions. I do the stunts. Just consider my recent predicament a failed attempt at jumping all nine buses. I think I only cleared seven and I need a little more time to recuperate, then I’ll be back on my bike trying to jump through twelve flaming rings suspended from helicopters.
I am really happy and honored to accept this award. And I am passing it on to everyone. Really, it is the least I can do. Congratulations and thank you all for sticking by me.

Nope, no Rules… Just something I wanted to Create/Give to some Specific Readers on My Site
But, as I say on My Post, Anyone is Completely able to Give This Award to Anyone they Feel they want to…
But it’s not a Rule, it’s just an Award that others are Welcome to Use

I created this award in November 2011 as a show of appreciation to my readers. It’s nice to see how far it’s gone since then.

Congrats on receiving this award.

/ May 28, 2012I am getting back to it. It’s coming in waves. I finalized the outline for my book. I am stoked about that. I was laying in bed thinking about structure and it just came to me. I was at friends so I dug up a piece of paper and a pen and wrote it

Stay on course and you’ll be clearing more than just nine.
