How I Saved The Country

Image
So, as I mentioned very briefly and selflessly the other day , I totally saved a school (and probably the entire country) from definite demise, and I am now waiting patiently by the phone for the city to call and offer me an award or maybe even the Order of Canada because I obviously totally deserve it. Although, I'm pretty sure the city doesn't give out the Order of Canada. Well, they should. Let me explain. The other evening, I suddenly became very enthusiastic about going for a walk. Mr. Handsome, Em and Dee looked at me like I had finally gone over the edge (because they know that is totally going to happen, it's not a question of "if", it's a question of "when"), so I had to tone down the enthusiasm a wee bit and repeat myself so that I made it clear that I was totally serious. Then Dee pipes up that he'd love to go for a walk with me, after first getting a small nod from Mr. Handsome that he'd probably be okay going alone with me. S...

I Am Beautiful! Who Knew?!

I cannot believe it. Oh my god. I feel like I'm in high school, and the hunk of the school has just asked me out on a date. You know the one I mean -- the one whose eyes make you melt, whose hair is always at just the perfect level of dishevelment, and who wears clothing that perfectly accentuates his healthy muscular physique. Yeah, that one. The one who would always avert his eyes when he saw my shadow around the corner, for fear of actually seeing my zit-ridden face and stringy, oily hair. No, I'm not bitter. I've gotten over it. Almost. Why do I feel this way? Because I've been nominated for my second award! This blogging thing I've gotten into recently is really fun after all! And it seems that people out there are actually reading what I write, and some are even enjoying it! Go figure! Bon Don over at Who Throws a Cupcake? Honestly so generously gave me this award. Check out her blog here . She's awesome. Here it is! Isn't it cool? I am overwhelme...

Making Lemons!

I am so darn proud and honoured to say that I have received my very first blog award! I am blushing from head to toe. The extremely coveted Lemonade Award was given to me by none other than Lana at The Kids Did What?! Check out her blog when you get the chance. It's hilarious, always good, and Canadian to boot, eh (that's my Ottawa Valley accent, in case I totally confused you there, eh)! Thank you so much, Lana! Because of you, I am no longer a blog award virgin. Now, don't ask me what this award means, because I don't really know. So I'm going to make it up...The Lemonade Award is given to any blogger you think rocks, makes lemonade out of lemon, or looks good in a Speedo. So, again, thanks, Lana! Rules of receiving this muchly coveted award: First, you should give some lovin' back to the blogger who so thoughtfully gave you the award in the first place, which I have done above. Second, you nominate 10 of your favourite bloggers to next receive this award. No...
