Jillian GO! Smells the Flowers… and an award!
I recently received an award from GO! Smell the Flowers. This blog… how can I describe it? It’s different, but the good kind of different if you know what I mean. It has 20 Founders from all over the world, each with their own personality. GO! Smell the Flowers encourages respectful participation in their posts. If you have something to say, by all means say it; however, people will let you know when they disagree. But that’s life, right? I comment there at least everyday. Some of the posts are informative, some are just plain fun, and some are a bit on the serious side. Either way… it’s different enough to where it’s never boring and I can always find something to make me laugh, smile, or think (I do this between reality TV re-runs).
It’s a nice place, to say the least.
There are a few “rules” regarding the award. So lets get to it, shall we?
First off: The award.
Clicking the image takes you to the post where it all started and gives more award detail.
Second: Awardees (is that a word?).
1) Random Chick at Confessions of a Random Chick. She is always funny, insightful, and entertaining. Is Pop Culture ridiculous? Can a woman really work and balance a family? Does anyone want a drink? Good times. Did I mention she offers great encouragement?
2) Angry at AngryButtons. What can I say? I like reading him. I learn a lot. He touches on a range of topics from Fatherhood, Politics, to animals. I’m never disappointed and always learn something new.
3) Sassy at The Sassy Southerner. She writes with an honesty that’s hard to find. Lots of topics, heartfelt, and enjoyable.
4) Dawn at Twisted Sister. I love her posts, they are always funny and make me smile. I lurked for a while just reading, laughing, then leaving. I’m never disappointed and can always count on something over there making me smile. Did I mention how nice she is? I like nice people. Nice people rock!
It turns out I can do this kind of thing once a month. It was hard only picking 5, if I had my way it would probably be everyone on my Blogroll. I get something from all the blogs I read… that’s why I keep coming back.
Until next month, GO! Keep on blogging!

THING OF THE DAY:
Do you watch wrestling? If so, let’s get together and send in a Letter of Complaint for this:
Clearly, this man needs a shirt. He used to wear one. Who thought this look was a good idea? Why? Seriously WWE, wtf?

OMG! You like me! You REALLY like me! *sniff sniff*
Okay, that’s so lame… I couldn’t come up with anything more witty to say because I’m trying to wean myself off caffeine. I’m a lot more creative when I have caffeine. I need to find another vice.
Thank you for the award!!!! Kiss kiss!!!
xoxoxoxo
Okay, I was so flustered with me getting an award that I forgot to CONGRATULATE you on your “Go Smell the Flowers” award!! Yes, it is all about me… (see my latest post, hee hee
Whooo hooo, Yayyy Jillian!!! We love you!
Congratulations! And thank you! I think you’re really nice too but you may not think I’m so nice when you see what I tagged you with :)))
Congrats on the award!!! I’ll have to re-visit that site (I was there once while surfing through blogs) as well as those you mentioned.
As for the wrestler, I’m sure it was Vince McMahon who thought that was a good idea. Same as him thinking he could be such a bad ass with no first name, just Mr. (cuz he is the boss). I think McMahon was better before the steroids and all the exercise. At least he seemed more human LOL
Nice people rock! Yep. Like you
Congrats on the award.
Your blog is very cool and I’m glad I stopped by. Keep up the good work!
Congrats on the award! And why am I always last to comment, must be our different time zones.
BTW, the big guy, are you sure that isn’t a mean looking woman, he’s got breasts so huge I doubt the biggest bra would support them.
Random- LOL… yes, you’re AWESOME! And thanks!!!
Dawn- LOL…. uh oh. But you deserve it!
Frank- Mr. McMahon is reported as being ready to step down and hand the reins over to his children. We’ll see if that’s good or bad. LOL… and I kinda like him.
the_mrs- Thanks! “N u’ll nvr c me tlk lik ths on here.”
Carl- Thanks! And nope that’s a man alright. His name is “Big Daddy V”. Yeah, that pic is of his “new” look. And what’s worse, they insist on rubbing him down in baby oil before he comes out. Gross!
Way to go Jillian… Congrats!!!
Our Blogosphere would be less alive without your contributions, be it blogs, comments or something… well you get the point…
Keep it up…
congrats on the award and yes, lets complain to the WWF about that thing. lol. love the title of your blog, two of my favorite words
loquacious
verbose
lol
Arv- Thanks a lot! Really!
Natural Woman- Thanks for stopping by and thanks for the congrats! Seriously, stuff like in that pic offends me. Ewww, what were they thinking??
Congrats again Jillian and also for the 5 worthy bloggers you awarded this to.
We’ve added them all to the Flower Smeller blog roll so our founders and regualrs from all over the world can check ‘em out.
BIG lol with the photo - wow - shall we send that guy flowers or a bra?
Cheers,
GO! Smell the flowers gang.
That’s alotta of ink. Who is that? (I haven’t watched wrestling in a while.) Mabel/Viscera? Or is that one of the fat guys from “Weird” Al’s Fat video. Ding dong yo, yo ding dong!
GO! Smell the Flowers- Awesome, I see their names listed! According to “Seinfeld” he’d need a bro!
whatigotsofar- LOL.. it is Viscera, of course now his new name is “Big Daddy V”. And you know, now WWE is in HD. Can you imagine how he must look on the REALLY good tv’s? Eww.
Hi Jillian, congratulations on your nomination, it’s well deserved… and thanks for awarding me too.
Although I don’t think I’m worthy of such an award, especially when compared to the likes of you and other recipients, I do graciously accept the award and promise to try and live up to it.
You’re a ‘nice person’… keep on rocking.
Angry- Thanks! And you deserve it!
Um, yeah, tell that dude to put on a shirt. I’m so distracted that I can’t even remember what your blog was actually about.
Jeannette- Hahaha. The H LOVES wrestling - I kinda like it, I have my faves - but this… man really ruins for me. And like I’ve mentioned before, the babyoil doesn’t help either.
Is that/did he used to be known as Viscera?
Congrats on the award!
Devilish Southern Belle- Yep, that’s Viscera alright! Seriously, I can’t get behind this new look. I hope it won’t last for too much longer!
Those are the largest breasts I’ve ever seen…and we used to watch porn as a leisure activity during my freshman and sophomore years.
Somebody should check those, I’d imagine there are probably homeless midgets making a home in that man’s bosom.
LOL. I still can’t believe thought this was a good idea.
Those poor unfortunate midgets…
