Ariala--
speaking of that, did u get the email from the Pulsemed a-hole? What nerve he has! He never did pay me a single penny for all the editing work I did for him. Nice, eh?

Julia, I have made more money on other sites writing content, but those
sites take up way too much of my time...blogit is fun...the other sites were too much work for little money.

Sooty.....
she would watch t.v. in her own little chair, open doors and windows (manipulate handles & latches with her paw), would at the start only answer to 'Sooty' in an English accent because her previous owner had been a Briton, would not let you read a book in peace, would nudge the pages closed insistent on being petted and would not let us leave the room when she went in to labour with her first and only litter.
I really loved that cat, she got ran over when I was about 12. Your post got me reminiscing to the point where I had to share. I think I must be running a temp again.

Wow. Thanks. I have the perfect place for my award, on my computer desk between my first-place soft-tipped dart league championship trophy and the posed Magneto action figure.

Rcky--
I like her too. We had a misunderstanding but have since cleared it up. I couldn't really tell you why she doesn't read me. I guess she just isn't interested in anything I write about. I read and commented on her posts quite a bit and never once got anything in return--my personal blogging style is to not try to force a friendship that obviously isn't there and move on, reading those who will occasionally read me as well.

I'm honoured to be included in your awards list.
(Top billing too).
Most of the bloggers on your list are on my 'read" least as well with the exception of Tabu - I'll check her out.... What a fun idea and a great way of sharing with others some writers well worth reading.

Thank you so much Julia, this is my first award for my art! LOL
I love the whole "Quirky Awards" thing. I agree you chose some really good people. BTW, I just posted a pic of Shaman, my drumming companion...I thought you'd like to see him. Have a great day and week. Catch you later.

Hi Julia
A very interesting and a perfectly correct assessment of the likely winners of the Golden Quirky" award. Your comment to me yesterday is the one like you have described for Odysseus, but I especially like about SW "who never ruturns a visit no matter however times you may". I must take care of this carelessness of mine too.

OK let's try again
I thank all that voted me as the weird one around here! Hmmm somebody obviously knows me and of course I would like to thank the academy, the kitties and my parents for making me possible!
There is that better?
