Congratulations to XUP for winning the Brillante Award and thank you for sending it my way.
It’s kind of like a meme actually. I get to send it to seven other bloggers, and they each get to send it to seven other bloggers, and if nobody drops the ball eventually we’ll all have a Brillante.
I’d like to send it back to XUP, since she’s prolific and interesting and witty in that wry, dry way of hers. But I can see how that might set an unsustainable precedent, so I will resist that urge.
Instead, I’m going to try to cast this one a little further afield than among the Usual Suspects (you know who you are).
Just Making It Up: I love her writing style and sense of humour, and if you read back through her archives, you’ll find that the past year dealt her a shocking and life-altering event.
The Home Improvement Ninja is an irreverent and politically incorrect derivatives lawyer in Washington who blogs about things like weighing his poop.
Wandering Coyote has a rich assortment of interesting interests, and is good enough to share them.
Don Mills Diva is not just a mommyblogger.
Toni over at Write Knit Read Purr lives in Florida and blogs about why she’s not knitting or blogging.
Mauricio at El Collage lives in Brazil and offers up a virtual parade of intriguing art.
Thank you, thank you!
Congratulations, but uhm… you’re short one selection.
So you are. I suggest you nominate Robin K. Heh…
I just wanted to see if anybody would notice. Okay, for my 7th and final choice, I nominate Robin.
…but, like, I’d totally be number eight… right?
Well Gabriel, I was originally trying to cast the net further afield than Ottawa, but since I’ve now nominated Robin, so much for that plan. You would absolutely be number eight. In fact you ARE number 8. Go for it!
Oh my goodness – congratulations to you AND to me!
Many, many thanks!
Thanks Zoom! I appreciate all the nice words aimed in my direction.
