But I really hate disappointing the people who DID give me awards, so here we go...
The Kreative Blogger Award
or
7 Things you didn't know about me: (courtesy of Serenityville)
- I used to be a teacher. Yep, for one school year when I was 20. I taught math, and I did morning music sessions with the little kids.
- I play the guitar - hence #1. Acoustic, nylon-strings (not electric). I have played for weddings, and concerts. I also provided the accompaniment for our church services every weekend for many years.
- I made my peace with the fact that I'm the audience, not the comedienne. I love to laugh but I don't tell jokes, usually cos I think someone else can do it better!
- My mother's family hails from Venezuela and speak both Spanish and English. We converse in English, and I read Spanish way better than I speak it. That doesn't mean I read it well! Just that I read it better than I speak it.
- My major in college was originally Psychology. By the end of freshman year I was always figuring out what was wrong with my friend's computers, so I decided I was in the wrong field and switched to Computer Science.
- I love to swim, and I love to swim in the open sea, yet I'm terrified of "things" lurking under the surface of the water. I know it's an unfounded fear, and if I'm in a group of people I'm fine. As the group thins out, my panic grows and I consciously have to tune out the panic.
- I used to be so skinny in college I deliberately had to try to put on weight so I could tolerate the winters. I ate steak and cheese sandwiches and lots of fattening things every day and slooowly put on the weight. Flash forward a few years and now I can't lose the weight no matter what!

From what I've seen so far, you are definitely the creative type. A well deserved award.
I envy you for many reasons. I can't sing my way out of a paper bag. I can't play an instrument. I can't figure anything out on my computer. I only know a very tiny amount of Spanish.
Congratulations, interesting list.. .. a guitarist.. another musician I discover..the other one is 'Always a Mom.'
Blessings to you.

Re: #7: Isn't it one of life's ironies that we never appreciate the bodies we have when we're young? Yet another reason youth is wasted on the young.
Congrats for your award and glad to know you :-)
Congrats on your award, well deserved! You and your blog are FABULOUS!
Smooches,
Sassy Chica
