The lovely Harmony over at Life in the L O has kindly declared me a "Queen of all things Awesummm" ... that's right, THREE (count 'em) M's.
She's pretty awesummm herself ... and she has the award to prove it. I strongly suggest you pop across to her blog and check her out, she's a sweetie and a very amusing sweetie to boot.
Now the award comes with a tag, you're supposed to list seven things that make you awesummm and then pass the award on to seven other people who you think are simply marvellous (awesummm).
Since I'm a total blog-ho (and have little or no idea what else to post about today) I'm going to play along. However, I am going to make the tag element optional, I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, so I'll name seven of my favourite bloggers and then it's up to them whether they follow suit. I'm happy just to shout my adoration for them from the cyber-rooftops.
But first, the seven things that I think make me Awesummm:
1) I once spelt "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" with my Alphabetti Spaghetti
2) I once showed the drummer from Iron Maiden where the loo roll was in Tescos (Yeaah! Rock 'n Roll, Baby!)
3) I have a wicked tennis serve that would make Roger Federer break down and cry like a little girl (and I don't even grunt in an unladylike manner when I do it)
4) I am the Phantom Jelly Biter (that bit's top secret btw) and I have inspired at least 3 people to join my glorious crusade across the globe with my tale of daredevil jelly-biting
5) I once had a goldfish called Sir Tarquin Farqhuar Smythe III (RIP Sir Tarquin ... forgive my godless mother for flushing you so ignobly down the toilet whilst I was at school)
6) I once puked on Santa in Debenhams (could be why I'm still waiting for that pony)
7) I have the most awesummm blog followers, whose excellent comments make me look good by default
Now comes the tricky part ... who shall I name as my "Magnificent Seven"? And it is tricky, because there are so many great blogs that I follow that narrowing it down to just seven is bloody hard work!
There's also the question of whether I award it to my gentlemen readers ... bearing in mind I will be officially calling them a "Queen" ... hmmm! My gentlemen readers all seem to be a rather big, hairy, manly bunch (except that one guy ... yeah, you know who I mean :/ ) and I'm not sure they'd appreciate the gesture ... although, having seen the estimable Mr Stoneskin's comment on Harmony's post I am sorely tempted to award it to him ... again, just to be naughty :P
But no, I'll be good, I'm rather fond of my gentlemen readers and I wouldn't want to risk alienating them and losing their readership, so I'll stick with my girls (whose blogs are much better any way).
So: (in no particular order)
Lopez
Greta
Sass
Pru Jones
Peggy
Diane
Dominica

Congrats on the job! At the asylum or the non-asylum type job? *checking out some of those links above*
Thanks Eric ... it's of the non-asylum type, but still lovely
hey congrats on the job, but the pressure is on now GI, you still need to keep writing awesummm stuff,I don't wanna hear work as an excuse.
Thank you Mr C ... it does seriously compromise my blog-time
I might quit tomorrow
Thanks Kate! You and your non-grunty tennis serve are so sweet! No...Awesommme!
I'm glad you got a job...is it the one in that super raunchy strip club that we were chatting about or the one with the MI6? Either way, shake that money maker baby!
Thanks Peggy :) ... it's the MI6 one ... dammit! Now I have to kill you! :P
That's a great name for a fish.
Well done.
Thank you, Dr Z :)
Very impressed with your spelling of "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" in your Alphabetti Spaghetti. Made my jaw drop and everything. Jealous? Yes definitely yes...I'm off to buy some alphabet soup, to see what I can come up with. ; )
Ugh..my lameness got to me. I hadn't noticed that whole "queen" thing until Mo pointed it out. Red in the cheeks I am. LOL
Harmony ... let me know what you come up with ... there's always antidisestablishmentarianism to aim for.
And that wasn't lameness!! That was comedy gold! I adore Mo's comments, they're just as good as his fabulous posts and you set him up perfectly :P
I admire the persistence and attention to detail it took to spell out supercalifragilisticexpialidocious in tiny pasta letters. It's a shame you had to eat your work!
Congrats on the new job and I hope it's not at an abattoir ;)
with your first check go blow it on a blackberry
Whoa. My Alphabet Spaghetti would have to come with a spell checker. Hooray for employment!
congratulations on the job. and thanks for the award!
There is something irresistable about a girl frolicking with her girlfriends. You deserve an awsumm blogger award for that mental image alone!
OMG Girl! I'm one! You've made my cinqo de mayo!
BTW...I'm so happy you're employed! Now you can pay for me to come visit you!
And I can't believe you MET the drummer from Iron Maiden. And I wasn't with you. We need to win the lotto so we can hang out together whenever we feel like it. Wait...do they have lotto in England?
Congrats on the Queendom, Your Magesty! Oh! And the job. M16? Sounds interesting...
Your serve would make Fed cry huh?
Yeah right.
You know that phantom jelly-biting could spread quickly to become a world wide problem don't you?
thanks for the award! my post is up now, lots of references to you and Mo Stoneskin's comment lol
Congratulations on the job - in this market that is worthy of bubbles. And new shoes.
You started a job today and you posted a meme!!!
I wanna hear about your job, your new peeps...are you in a psych ward? Is this going to affect your blogging? Come on, important questions!!!
I love your fish's name...and I wouldn't have been able to point out the toilet to a famous person. My mouth would have dropped and my eyes bugged out...b/c THAT'S how cool I am.
and you can add me to your list of people who really want to get in on this jelly biting situation!!! If I ever do make it out there, I am going to make it a point to go to a grocery store and do this.
in your honor, of course! ;o)
Thanks for the award! And congrats to you! (I think you are wonderful).
Happy New Job!!
words ... lol no, not an abattoir! *shudder* :P
Mr C ... you clearly know the way my mind works ...
Lost ... Hooray indeed! :)
Untitled ... You're welcome :) I love your blog, will be along shortly to check out your post
JP ... haha, I'm here for your mental image pleasure ;)
Greta ... we seriously need to hang out! How else will I get first dibs on all those manhole goodies!! We do have the lotto ... if I ever win, consider yourself invited :)
JJ ... Did you see what I had to do to Peggy for knowing about the MI6 job? If anyone asks ... you know nothing, k? ;)
Mo!!!! Are you doubting my awesummm tennis serve?? :O After all the lovely things I've nearly said about you?!!!
And this world would be a better place for having a jelly biting epidemic!
Sas ... thank you :) I see you also know me extremely well :P
Lopez ... lol I'll write a little bit about the new job in tonights post, but no, I'm not in a Psych ward, although some might say I should be :P And nothing could affect my blogging ;) I really hope you do make it to the UK one day ... then I'm going to take you jelly biting
Vic ... :) Thank you! And right back atcha!
Congrats on the new job!!
(Fuck, I was hoping you would stay unemployed for longer so you'd be around blogging all day.)
And thank you for the awesummm thingy!
Now what do I do? List reasons why I am awesummm on my blog and then choose seven?
Is there a pretty award that comes along with this? I need more awards, please God!
lol thanks P Mama ... and you're very welcome ;)
Congrats on the new job! And thanks for passing on this awesome award.
We have that tennis thing in common. I can't get anyone to play with me anymore, they usually throw down the racket, complaining that I'm scary, no fun, & too competitive.
Oooh Diane! We should pair up and whup 'em at doubles :P
Thank you for the award, kind lady. I curtsy to you.
And congratulations on the new job. Make that chedda, baby!
:) Thanks Pru!
Poor, poor Santa. *snicker*
And thank you, thank you, thank you for calling me AWESUMMMM!!!! *Squeeeee!*
(Santa's creepy ... he deserved it) :P
And you're most welcome :)
