I’m honored

A while ago, I was awarded the Rockin Girl Blogger award by a lovely blogger friend, Catherine. But for many reasons, including the fact that I sure as hell didn’t FEEL like a Rockin Girl Blogger, I haven’t made mention to it here, although I did thank her.

I really am honored when someone likes my blog enough to make mention of it in a good way and even more so if they want to bestow honors on it! I really enjoy blogging, even if it can’t always be on the subject matter that I’d originally hoped it would be. But this is, after all, my life that I’m blogging about, and no one is kinky ALL the time… well… at least not most of us LOL

So, then it took me a while to figure out who I would like to pass the award on to. I knew, of course, that my best friend angel would definitely qualify – she rocks in so many ways. (Even if she *IS* 10 yrs younger than me *hmph*)

Another “given” would be Peg, because she’s been here since day 1 too.

Melinda, personifies CoOl with her blog about everything BUT sex LOL

His Mija, a relative newcomer to my blog, has shown such compassion during my recent struggles. That totally rocks, to me.

and of course, finally, SkyWindows – she & I seem to have alot in common as well, even if she has way too much on her plate right now.

So there’s my choices for this award, which truly isn’t just another graphic to throw on my blog, but means something to me.

tagged yet again

I was tagged by AngelBrat a while ago and am just now getting around to thinking about my answers LOL I love getting tagged, though, so here they are – as unthunk as they are

Question number 1: What are three of the stupidest things you’ve done in your life?

• (copying angelbrat) started smoking

• had unprotected sex (with a rather … questionable person) and luckily didn’t catch anything

• protested having a c-section so long that I put us both in jeopardy.

Question number 2: At the current moment, who has the most influence on your life?

• Zachary, who is 100% dependent on ol’ mom for ya know, nourishment, rules my days & my nights. My schedule is his to do with as he wants.\
• But as for things like making decisions, I’d have to say my hubby – my first thought is usually “Well, what would HE think I should do/say/etc.” because I value his opinion… and my sanity lol

Question number 3: If you were given a time machine that functioned, and you were allowed to only pick five people to dine with, who would you pick?

• My kids – in the future, to see that they turn out ok.

• My Nana – I miss her terribly, and would love to talk to her about how I’M doing, since she never got a real chance to meet her great grandchildren. Her Alzheimer’s had already kicked in when I had my 1st.

• My mom – 35 years ago, when she was deciding to marry the bastard that she married – to talk her out of it. Yeah, I know, it’d determine that my brother wasn’t here, but for her to experience what she did… that’s a tough choice.

(that’s 5)

Question number 4: If you had three wishes that were not supernatural, what would they be?

• Financial stability – I don’t need a million dollars – just a steady income that isn’t going anywhere – EVER.

• An extra 3 hours a day

• and of course, to know that my children grow up happy and healthy.

Question number 5: Someone is visiting your hometown/place where you live at the moment. Name two things you regret your city not having, and two things people should really avoid.

• I regret that our town doesn’t have better access to the coast .. the term “can’t get there from here” really applies.
• I also regret that our town doesn’t have a better support system to do things FOR the town, like fireworks on holidays, etc.

• Two things to avoid… that’s tough, being in a small town. I’d avoid Chutters … paying $10/lb for penny candy, just for the “Thrill” of the world’s biggest candy counter is STUPID.
• I’d also avoid the draw to go wading in the river – it’s not as clean as it looks.

Question number 6: Name one event that has changed your life.

• Meeting my hubby. I became a different person after I met him.

Question number 7: Is not a question. It’s a command. Tag five other people.

I dunno if they’ll answer, but I tag Skywindows, her hubby Brahnamin, Angel, Melinda, and a blog new to me, Sexy Momma – no, it’s not mine

karma’s a bitch

There were two brothers. One was very good and tried to always live right and be helpful. His brother, on the other hand, was bad and did all the things that men should not do and didn’t care who he hurt.

The bad brother died. He was still missed by his brother since he loved him despite his ways.

Finally, years later, the good brother died and went to Heaven. Everything was beautiful and wonderful there and he was very happy. One day he asked God where his brother was, as he hadn’t seen him there. God said that he was sorry but his brother lived a terrible life and went to Hell instead. The good brother then asked God if there was any way for him to see his brother. So God gave him the power of vision to see into Hell and there was his brother. He was sitting on a bench with a keg of beer under one arm and a gorgeous blonde on the other. Confused, the good brother said to God, “I am so happy that you let me into Heaven with You. It is so beautiful here and I love it. But I don’t understand, if my brother was bad enough to go to Hell, why does he have the keg of beer and a gorgeous blonde. It hardly seems like a punishment”.

God said unto him, “Things are not always as they seem, my son. The keg has a hole in it; the blonde does not.”

oh boy, is this me LOL

some funnies

a kindergarten pupil told his teacher he’d found a cat, but it was dead. “How do you know that the cat was dead?” she asked him. “Because I pissed in its ear and it didn’t move,” answered the child innocently. “You did WHAT!?!” the teacher exclaimed in surprise. “You know,” explained the boy, “I leaned over and went “psst!” and it didn’t move.

A little girl goes to the barber shop with her father. She stands next to the barber chair, while her dad gets his hair cut, eating a snack cake. The barber says “Sweetheart, you’re gonna get hair on your Twinkie”. She says “Yes, I know, and I’m gonna get boobs, too.”

15 days

• Just 15 days to go until my newest heir to the throne is brought, screaming, into this world. Hard to believe, eh?

• You Were Nice This Year

  You Were 25% Naughty, 75% Nice Okay, so you weren’t *entirely* nice this year But Santa doesn’t expect a modern girl to be perfect You were good enough – and you’ll be rewarded for it

  How Naughty (Or Nice) Were You This Year?

• Your Celebrity Boob Twin:

  Anna Nicole Smith

  Who’s Your Celebrity Boob Twin?

I’m still hoping to hear from someone about a backup blogging site that allows you to import. C’mon people.

• I hope that Melinda got her heat back this weekend.

• Prince was awesome in the superbowl halftime show. He’s still hot after all these years. I actually stood in line at 5am to get tickets for his show 23 years ago.. and they sold out before I got any.

• I taught a one-on-one eBay class yesterday, despite the fact that it was 10 degrees out, and I’m , ya know, 99 months pregnant. But the lady was very appreciative, so that was nice. She even called to make sure I got home ok.

• My mom & dad are coming up for the baby’s birth

• My friend angel is sending me a paddle that’s even got my name on it. I can’t wait.

• Although it wasn’t a holiday, my mom turned 60 this weekend, and my parents also celebrated their 29th wedding anniversary. I can’t possibly fathom that!

• My 3 yr old has officially joined the ranks of the homeschooled.

• My kids keep coming up with names for the baby.

• While I haven’t been able to be particularly kinky for a while, I still have kinky thoughts, so I consider that to be my reason why I keep my blog named this

• Even though we’re expecting a very nice tax refund, I cannot think of more than 2 things that I want to buy when we get the money One of them is a freezer, the other – a *good* frying pan.

• A really awesome homeschooling site – IknowThat.com

• I quit smoking 16 years ago and according to quitnet.com, I’ve saved $60,000.

• I was really upset by this news story about this woman who was refused medical treatment while being arrested, and she miscarried her baby. Now, while she obviously was probably already losing the baby, having to go through that whole night KNOWING it was happening, would be awfully cruel.

• Some people try to guess my password for my password protected postings. I tell them that’s like trying to hack my blog.

• This other story about this couple who had sextuplets and then refused to allow them to have what could have been life-saving medical treatments that would have saved TWO of the babies – also pisses me off. You want them so bad, you do what you have to, religion or not, to SAVE THEM.

• While I can’t wait for my pregnancy to be finished and the baby to be here, I know I’ll miss being pregnant, at least a little bit.

• I have read every single (fiction) book by Koontz, Patterson, King, & Grafton.

• In hindsite, I wish I hadn’t fought so hard to avoid a c-section with my son, thus putting both our lives in danger.

• After almost 12 years, I can say without a doubt that our relationship is stronger than it’s ever been.

• And the sex ain’t bad either

And in case you’re wondering, I’ve just used every category I have on my blog LOL

Appealing to the masses

or asses…

So as I was perusing my blogstats today, I came across something I haven’t ever seen before… and when you consider I’ve been perusing fetish-type things for going on 10 years, that’s saying alot.

And, because this person who was searching for this particular term apparently found my blog through, though god only knows WHY, I thought it would be nice if I actually had some of what they were looking for when they came here to look. So, without further ado…

Have you figured out what the search term was yet?
