Wow.

What I have to say is so incredibly awesome, it gets its own post. I generally don’t like to post stuff back-to-back because I have this fear that people will miss stuff. I know it’s not that serious, but I don’t trust people to scroll, ya know?

Onwards…

I received “The Rising Blogger, Post of the Day” award, you can see it proudly displayed on the “Awards” page. If you click it, you’ll see the post in which I am awarded. Feel free to drop some comments over there if you’re willing.

I get excited over little things. I don’t know how big or small this is, but I am WAY excited and WAY happy to have received this. It’s awesome. It’s really encouraging and frankly, I really needed it. I can’t count the number of times, in this blog’s young life, I thought about just stopping. But the people that read here and this award… have saved me from myself.

So thanks!

And a special THANK YOU (this deserves all CAPS) to Dawn from Twisted Sister. I am truly happy and honored. You’re Awesome.

I’ll end here before I get super mushy.
