Awards and Tagging!

I recently was the recipient of the Prolific Blogger Award. Creepy Query Girl was kind enough to pass this on to me :0) Yeah!

I have been so out of touch with all ya'll's blogs that I feel like a terrible person. Here's to catching up soon and I'm just going to touch on a couple of my favorite blogger people :)

Hannah at Musings of a Palindrome. She's doing this retrospective for her birthday month that is just SO much fun.

Mia at My Literary Jam and Toast. Seriously, I feel like I have known her FOREVER instead of a couple weeks.

Sarah at Falen Formulates Fiction writes about so many thought-provoking topics. I always enjoy my jaunts over there.

Lindsey at Dangerous With a Pen always makes me smile (and I think she lives kinda close to me, too....)

Patricia Stoltey's blog I discovered during the A-Z challenge and she always has something interesting to say.

Oh there are just so many of you that I love to visit! But I'm running out of time so I have to hurry on to the next little section.

Oh, and somebody else recently tagged me with an award, but for the life of me I can't remember who, so if it was you, just leave me a comment and I will come collect and pass it on *hangs head in shame*
