Little alien thinking dude
I’ve been given a ‘Thinking Blogger Award’ by the Target-riffic Kellie. I’m flattered and honored. And I hope I can live up to the high standard of fun and thoughtful writing she shares with us on her site.
She writes about her life as a new mom, as someone who struggles with silly (and I’m being polite there) neighbors and landlords, as someone who makes observations about the world around her and as someone struggling with a fixation on a certain department store,. These observations and self-proclaimed ramblings have us enthralled and eagerly awaiting each posting. She’s self-deprecating to a fault (is that phrase an oxymoron? I don’t think so… let’s make a new word, just for her… oxygenius. Yeah, that’s it.).
Details on this Thinking Blogger thingie:
1. If, and only if, you get tagged, write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think.
2. Link to this post so that people can easily find the exact origin of the meme.
3. Optional: proudly display the ‘Thinking Blogger Award’ button.
With that in mind, I award the Thinking Blogger to these sites (in no particular order):
- Madship
My cycling buddy. The one to which I owe a passion for cycling. Thanks for saying “We should go for a ride together” some four or so years ago. - Rose at Marathon Bound
She left me quite possibly the most creative comment I’ve ever received. A haiku for a haiku. I should have expected no less from this eloquent and entertaining runner and poet. - Umm, this post has languished in my drafts folder for a few days now waiting for me to fill in three more recipients.
- I realize that my online relationships are still numbered in the teens and haven’t grown into adulthood. Nearly all of them have already either received this award or would not be interested.
- So in the interest of closure, I will cut the cord on this post and just click Publish with two nominations.

I *fluffy pink heart* your description of me, too :)

I guess this isn’t really too much about the post itself, but the simple fact that according to the time on this post, you were up and coherent at 7:04 am to even write is impressive to me. At that time I am still yelling at the alarm clock to leave me alone and just let me sleep a few more minutes.

I probably should decline, since I was tagged and did not participate. But, I did do the 20 thing. I will accept this as the honor it is. Thank you for thinking of me. I do have an issue since my online realtionships are basically still in their infancy. Yours is only blog I read on a regular basis. I have no one to recommend since you have already been nominated.
I’ll post the thinker dude for a while, but Unless iWeb ‘08 comes out soon, it’ll most likely get forgotten since I am unaware of a way to create a customized page.
