I'm actually quite shallow

Two things happened this weekend.

1. Mielikki at First Do No Harm nominated me for a Thinking Blogger Award.

I was actually nominated for this award about a month ago by JerseyGirl, and it kinda embarrassed me, which prompted this post. (Go read it, it still applies.) I'm equally embarrassed by this go-round, but I realized that in order to prevent further occurrences, I must add the award to my sidebar. Let's go back to being mean and sarcastic now, shall we?


2. Ambulance Driver added me to his Blogs I Read Every Day list.

I have been dreaming of this day for over two months. The reason y'all have the chance to sit in awe of my stunning wit and incredible sarcasm is because one day at the beginning of April, after looking at my sister's latest family pictures on her blog, I hit the Next Blog button at the top of the page. A Day in the Life of An Ambulance Driver lit up my screen. This post, in particular. After spending an hour laughing my ass off, I said to myself, "Self, if we weren't married, we would stalk this guy until we were able to kidnap him and spirit him away to entertain us in humorous and lascivious ways. Since we are married, we will start a blog and see if he'll read it." AD, count your lucky stars- you don't have to go into the Witness Protection Program.

You can guess from the title of this post whether it was #1 or #2 that excited me more....

well. . . at least I got you to post the pretty picture so that everyone won't tag you. ;)

Yeah, AD is a Big Boy in the blogosphere. Glad he mentions me occasionally too.

I like your blog too.

A reward well deserved!

That is high praise from AD indeed, Monkeygirl ! Congrats !

I felt the same way when I saw that you added Addicted to Medblogs to your "Blogs I Check Every Day". I'm glad to see that I am not the only one who has cyber-crushes. And thanks for introducing me to AD (since you don't want him, can I have him?).
