Liebster and Versatile Blog Awards Round #2

I am honored to have once again been nominated for the Liebster and Versatile Blog Awards!

The Quiet Borderline has nominated me for the Liebster Blog Award, for which I’d like to thank her. I probably would’ve nominated her if she hadn’t nominated me. You can read the rules for acceptance in this post from the first time I was nominated.

I’d like to nominate the following fabulous blogs for the Liebster Blog Award:

Ruby Tuesday’s I Was Just Thinking . . .

Tiptoeing Around the Abyss

Voices of Glass

Disorderly Chickadee

Raison d’etre

Thanks to mm172001, who has nominated me for the Versatile Blogger Award. Here are the rules, which are slightly different than the first time I received it:

  • Nominate 10 other blogs
  • Inform them about their nominations.
  • Share 7 random things about yourself.
  • Thank the blogger who nominated you.
  • Put the Versatile Blogger Award picture in your post.

Seven random facts:

1) When I created my Twitter account, for some reason I decided that my pen name should be Angel Flatley. I feel like it sounds kind of stupid . . . but so does everything else I could think of.

2) Here’s something germane to a random fact from the first time I was nominated: The “exciting thing” I’ve been alluding to over the past few days is that I got invited to try out for Jeopardy. As I mentioned the first time I accepted the Versatile Blogger Award, it’s my dream to be on Jeopardy. I’m trying not to get too excited because I don’t want to hope for the highly improbable.

3) I’ve recently started watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer on Netflix. Before then, I’d never seen an episode of the show, and I always felt out of the loop about something that seemed to be common knowledge.

4) My favorite show currently on air is Once Upon a Time. Is it wrong that I kind of really like Mr. Gold/Rumpelstiltskin?

5) I’ve eaten two and a half boxes of Girl Scout cookies over the past six days.

6) My pdoc is leaving the practice I go to. I will see a new one next time I go. It’ll be the first time I ever see a female pdoc.

7) I have no life whatsoever.

Blogs I Nominate:

Lugubrious Layara

Manic Muses

The Life You Save May Be Your Own (Flannery O’Connor Reference!)

A Clown on Fire

I’m having a hard time thinking of anyone who hasn’t received one of these awards, so I’ll stop there. Perhaps I missed or forgot that these bloggers have already received one or both of the awards. I wouldn’t be surprised. :) If I nominated you for the Liebster Award, feel free to take the Versatile Blogger one as well. I hereby nominate you, too.

  1. You’re so sweet, thank you! And your timing is impeccable. I have to do another round with The Versatile Blogger, so I can combine them, as you have.

    Good luck with Jeopardy. *crosses fingers* Oh, and those Savannah Smile lemon powdered sugar Girl Scout cookies (which I call Singapore Slings for my own reasons)? I ate three boxes in two days. Evil! Lemon flavored, powdered sugar covered evil! ;)

    • Thanks! After having gotten my invitation, I’ve sort of been blah for a week. Only today did the full meaning of it hit me. Now I’m so nervous! I think that’s why I felt emotionless at first, to prevent that. I probably would’ve eaten more Girl Scout cookies if I’d been home all day. I ate half of that total on Saturday and Sunday.

    Good Luck with the Jeopardy audition :)

  3. I put your blog on my favorites cause I have been missing your posts ;-)

  4. Look at you…Congratulations! :)

  5. Thank you. I was going to take the Alan Smithee Blog award on this nomination (http://clownonfire.wordpress.com/the-awards-circus/alan-smithee/), but my ego is stronger than my sarcasm.

    Good luck with the Jeopardy audition. And Alex Trebek Canadian.

  6. Jeopardy? That’s AWESOME!

    I appreciate the Liebster v2 – it’s so nice to hear that someone really likes your writing. I have now added an Awards page to my site for this sort of thing.

    I will post a follow-up acceptance (in due time) with nominations for other blogs, since I didn’t get around to it with the Versatile Blogger Award and I’ve since come across a bunch of new and awesome blogs. Thanks for the prompt!

    • Thanks! I really did kind of want to just hide when I told people at work about “Jeopardy” . . . I think it’s because I don’t like to be the center of attention.

      An Awards page sounds like a good idea. Maybe I’ll make one, too, so I’ll stop cluttering up my sidebar. Hope you don’t mind me copying you on that if I do so.

  7. You are most welcome for the award! You deserve it!

    All the best,

    The Quiet Borderline
