Title of the Blog

Guys? This is bad parenting.

For the last two weeks, I've been MIA and mildly dysfunctional, and upon my return, what do I learn?

I received an award from one person, a shout-out from another and one more gave me some name anagrams!

It's just like high school when I would crank out term papers the night/morning before they were due, and receive a B+ for my hard work.

My poor mother has been trying to beat that habit out of me since I was 5, when I would procrastinate on Show 'n Tell. Sadly, it was all in vain.

But more importantly, I got an award!

Deb from Spawnocalypse bestowed the Honest Scrap award upon me and I could not be more pleased. For if nothing else, I do try to be honest in this thing.

According to the Bloggers that Be, I must now reveal ten honest facts about myself in order to properly accept this award.

1) I am pale as the days are long... and I like it!

2) I would like my next vacation to be in Portland, OR.

3) While I'm not happy Farrah Fawcett died, I am pleased with the amount of Charlie's Angels reruns they've been airing on TVLand.

4) I love the word "sluice".

5) If I had to take the American citizenship test in order to continue living in this country, I would be deported.

6) I love the smell of Play-Doh.

7)* It took a trip to China to learn of my love for red wine, green beans and sushi.

8) It took a trip to the Netherlands to learn that I don't like kids.

9) Smoking, bad grammar and morning chipperness are deal breakers.

10) Baldness, tattoos and baking are not.


I also got a shout-out from Carolyn of Team Boo, which was quite the compliment as well!

Then, to top this mess off, I got anagrammed. MJ from Tetanus Tomato threw my name around a little bit and came up with Tears Yarn and (my personal favorite) Antsy Rear, which I have decided will be my alias when I make my move to the adult film industry.

To pass on the love, I would like to hand the Honest Scrap award over to Lizz from One Nerve Left. This lady does not mince words, nor is she ever at a loss for them. She's a hoot and a half. I'd recommend her to a friend!

And now, I must go to Dream Land and let images of Bob Dylan and Guy Fawkes harvesting multicolored soy product in my living room dance in my head.

Thanks again, Deb! I'm pretty full of it sometimes, but I like to think I'm up front about it.

*I never realized how many people don't know that sushi is Japanese food, not Chinese. I thought that was odd.
