I wasn’t ready to write this, all of a sudden, because my brain had a short-but-violent meltdown of the ‘disordered thoughts’ type, and I couldn’t see beyond the rim of my own navel, for an embarrassingly long couple of hours. Friday evening was spent in a mire of misery and self-loathing and the only thankful…
I already hate that title! HOWEVER (hang on, you’re not meant to start sentences like that, are you? Because it’s improper. Or something…ANYway…) it makes sense, because what we have here is one of those awards which makes the rounds periodically, and people tend to either adore them and collect them and show them off,…
It’s okay to start in Italian, right? I don’t really feel that English sometimes has the right sounds of language to express something as lovely as that feeling you get when you’ve been given a gift of recognition or admiration that you feel you probably only a little bit deserve (even though the feeling is…
It must be awards season again, and though there comes a time in every blogger’s life when they receive a flurry of beautiful, shiny awards, thrown at them by people desperately seeking to fill one of the eleventybillion requirements of the things, and make up the numbers of people they have to pass them onwards…

Lovelies, it’s time to announce the inception of a brand new award. I’ve been presented with a number of blogging awards in the past few months, and they’re truly wonderful things, given (and passed on) largely in recognition of the style and quality and content of a fellow blogger’s writing, and how it speaks to…
So over the weekend, the wonderful-delightful-super-smashing-awesome Cyndi, of the beautiful blog Pictmilitude, nominated me for really rather a special award – this one: It’s an award which I really feel I can get on board with, because there are so many wonderful bloggers out there (and sorry Y-Chromes, but you’re totally left out of this…
It’s been an upsy-downsy kind of week (or two, let’s be honest) for me. But this weekend, THIS is the mood – watch the whole thing and you’ll get an inkling… Can you guess why? Remember that interview Husby had lined up? HE ONLY FREAKIN GOT THE JOB! Which wraps up #1. Okay, no it…
