Hope everyone had a lovely Easter weekend. Mine was fabulous until I got food poisoning on Saturday night. So Sunday was not so fun--a three-hour drive from Austin back to Dallas, feeling like I wanted to die. For anyone who has ever had food poisoning, you know what I'm talking about. Poisoning is definitely the appropriate word. This is the second time I've gotten it and if I never get it again, that will be too soon.
So today I am going to take it easy by alleviating my blog award guilt. I've been a bad blogger, hoarding awards. So here is the ones I've received over the last few months. (If you've given me one that I haven't mentioned, please email me to let me know, so I can add you to another post. But hopefully I've covered everyone.)
Alright, on to the awards...
1) Five recipients.
2) Make up something about the people you give the award to.
3)Link to the people you give it to.
4)Link back to the original award post.
My Crit Group Soulmates
1. Gwen Mitchell--because she is secretly a Zyne witch and I need to stay on her good side.
2. Dawn Brown--because she hasn't left her attic in five years.
3. Lynnette Labelle--because she has mind-melded with me so we can post about the same things simultaneously.
My Twitter Soulmates because they are not afraid to have a conversation about the word "suckle" at midnight. Wait, that's not a lie. Hmm... (see what you're missing if you don't follow me on Twitter? This is highly intellectual conversation, people.)
