~~Das Liebster Mein Liebchen~~


Taking a break from serious depressing posts... to provide you with this: 
My acceptance of the Liebster Award!
*Now is when you clap in thunderous applause*
(Standing Ovation not necessary, but appreciated)
Thank YOU
I would like to thank the Academy.... well, mostly The Plucky Procrastinator... for basically saying {Tag! You're It!}. I would also like to thank the internet, because without it... well I'd have nowhere to shamelessly bask in the glory your attention provides me, despite being completely misanthropic in real life. Rather the conundrum, aren't I?

Now, as with most bloggy awards there are some rules of acceptance.
1. Each person must post 11 things about themselves.
2. Answer the 11 questions the person giving you the award set for you.
3. Create 11 questions for the people you will be giving the award to.
4. Choose 11 people to award and send them the link to your post. Go to your Facebook page and tell them. No tag backs.

... and these rules are basically why it took me so long to post this, because dang... I had a really hard time coming up with questions. I had an equally hard time coming up with 11 other people to give this too... who hadn't just gotten it from someone else.... So yea... Here goes....

~11 Random doo-dads about MSDLH~
1. Contrary to popular belief, I can cook, quite well actually. 
2. I adore John Mayer even if he is supposedly banging Katy Perry.
3. I have a weird crush on Russell Brand
(do you see the irony of the last 2 statements?? lol)
4. I actually can't stand my dog. He smells, he has fleas and he barks at his own shadow... annoying.
5. I have a strange obsession with maps. Maps are uber cool. Screw the GPS!
6. I miss my Mustang! It was the most beautious car. I will have another one~someday!
7. I. can. not. dance. Don't ask me. It's frightening
8. I am unreasonably frightened of flying. Planes- panic inducing flying coffins. It's bad.
9. I HATE FEET. anti-foot-fetish. yuck. (except for adorable baby feet)
10. I can change the oil in my car and I have replaced the brakes as well. The garage hates to see me coming cuz they know they can't get anything over on this girl. One of the benefits of having more car-guy friends than gal-pals in high school :D
11. I am addicted to Utz Puff'n Corn. Sgt. Dad had entire box (48 ct.) shipped to me about 3 months ago. There is one bag left. Nom.


My questions via Ms. Dina-Marie~ A Plucky Procrastinator:

1. Can you play a musical instrument? If so, which one(s) and how long have you been playing?
Well, theoretically I can. I took piano lessons for a bit in my youth... like when I was 8 or something, but at the mention of the word recital... I was like... 'oh hell no!' and I quit. I can play a bit, but I'm no Herbie Hancock... Mostly I sing.... in the car... with the window open... in the drop-off lane at my sons school. :D

2. Do you have any tattoos?
Haha... NO. That would involve a needle going into my flesh... repeatedly. I don't do needles... unless medically necessary. I'm a wuss, and I am totally ok with that.

3. When you were 16 years old, what did you think your life would be like when you were 25?
Oh well... you know... married to a millionaire and sitting in the lap of luxury. Yea... that didn't happen.....  (big aspirations....)

4. If you could only choose one, would it be bacon or sausage?
How is this a valid question?? LOL The answer is always BACON

5. Have you ever been in a car/truck/motorcycle accident?
Nothing major. Thank the Good Lord. There was that time when I was about 17 and hit that 300 lb. kid on his brother's tiny bike.... my poor Chrysler Laser :/

6. If you were stranded on a deserted island, what animal would you really hope was not also on the island?
Just one? Because I could seriously list like a dozen different animals. If I had to pick one though... snakes... like any sort of snakes... ANY... No snakes on an island. Nope.

7. Have you ever ran a marathon?
Bwahahahhahaaaa... yea. Right. Me in a marathon. Hilarious. There would have to be zombies or even snakes involved...

8. If you could pick only one household duty to never do again, which one would it be?
Dishes. I so hate doing dishes. And apparently everyone else around here does too. If I had married that unknown millionaire I wouldn't have this problem.

9. What's the one TV show you never want to miss?
There are a few, but the one show that I can not miss is Fringe. I'm so so sad it's the last season. I'm gonna be so depressed when it's over....

10. What is your earliest memory?
You know, I can't say for sure but I seem to remember looking out of a crib. Seems more dream like  than real. Very vague and foggy. Although I clearly remember kindergarten and getting in trouble for whispering to Joey Schultiess that his coloring looked nice. Couldn't keep my mouth shut then... can't now....

11. Do you like peanut butter in your chocolate?
If my intent is to eat peanut butter in my chocolate sure. But mostly I like chocolate in my chocolate. Unless there are pretzel M&Ms nearby and then well... hand them over and no one gets hurt. Oh, I think I may have some left.... brb....

Back. Success!
So here's the deal, now I have to come up with 11 questions of my own and find 11 other people to send this to. It's like a freakishly odd chain letter.
Here goes....

1. What show from your childhood would you love to bring back?
2. You accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what’s even cooler is that they endow you with the super-power of your choice! What is that power?
3. You see a spider in the house. What do you do?
4. Cupcakes or Cake?
5. Do you have any strange phobias??
6. What car/ truck would you drive if money were of no consequence?
7. If you could press a button and make anyone in the world instantaneously explode, who would it be?
8. What part of pop-culture do you wish would just go away?
9. If the whole world were listening to you right this minute, what would you say?
10. What movie- no matter how many times you see it- would you watch again (and again and again and again)?
11. Pretend it's your birthday. What would make this day perfect?

and these gems are for the following:

1. Just Another Manic Mommy
2. Razorblade Brian
3. I Will Get Up Again and Again
4. Yoga Mommy's Selftalk(In)Sanity
5. Sorry kid, Your Mom Doesn't Play Well With Others
6. Crazed Ramblings of a Not So Ordinary Mom
7. Pretending to be Normal is Exhausting!
8. Mediocrates
#9-11- Well the truth is... I struggled to come up with 8 folks who I thought may not mind this... and hadn't just received it. It took me almost a week to finish this post, and well... I'm stopping at eight. I'm such an underachiever.

I want Puff'n Corn :D
