Well, except it's not so much an award, because I have to do stuff in return. So, thanks a fucking lot, Dean Wormer! Here's what I have to do:
Rules:
1.You must brag about the award Hooray! I won! And I didn't even remember entering the contest! And you know who DIDN'T win? Dr. Zaius! In your face, you damn dirty ape!
2.You must include the name of the blogger who bestowed the award on you and link back to the blogger Already did that
3.You must choose a minimum of seven (7) blogs that you find brilliant in content or design maybe later
4.Show their names and links and leave a comment informing them that they were prized with Honest Weblog.I SAID LATER, dammit!
5.List at least ten (10) honest things about yourself.Then pass it on with the instructions!I'll do this part now.
1. I don't like tarragon or rosemary. Or feta. Or blue cheese. Or most goat cheeses. Or lamb.
2. My favorite sound in the world is birds chirping.
3. I hate Jimmy Buffet music. And the Grateful Dead.
4. I don't understand artificial grape flavoring, because I've never eaten a grape that actually tasted like that. This goes for blueberry, too.
5. I am irritated that major network TV shows use words like "bitch" and sexual innuendo and in general have characters who insult and degrade each other during prime time. Also, graphic depictions or descriptions of violence/death and disease. I regret that I can't watch TV after dinner with my kids like I used to with my parents.
6. I think competition is waaaay overrated in this country.
7. I think somewhere in the late 1970's or early 1980's, intelligence became downgraded as an attribute in this country, and it's been a struggle to get it valued again.
8. I really, really, really like my feet rubbed.
9. Despite the bad rap white bread gets from nutritionists and the scorn with which it is held by foodies, I still believe it makes the best peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
10. I am horrible with correspondence, whether it be personal or business or paying bills or whatever. Yet I enjoy writing, and do it every day.
There's my 10 things. I don't know if they meet the threshold of "brutally honest," but they're what sprang to mind this Sunday afternoon.
