Versatility, I Has It

Well, hello all you new neighbors! Thanks ever so much for stopping over here, because it means a lot to me. This weekend is the Halloween Bloghop, going on over at Jeremy Bates' blog, and I've noticed that a lot of the traffic has been due to that. Thanks peeps! You all seem like lovely people and I'm sure this is the start of some wonderful blurking.

Anywho, one of my newest neighbors has so graciously awarded Over Yonder with The Versatile Blogger award thingy, and I have to say, I'm honored. Part of the requisite actions I must take for this award is to list seven facts about myself--of the random variety--and also pass the award on to some newly discovered bloggers who fit the bill as well.

Spectacular! I just love lists, and the more random, the better!

1. I'm currently working on crocheting hats for everyone I know for their Christmas gifts. Please don't tell them.
2. I bought 22 inches worth of books today and it only cost me $11. Tune in on Monday to find out how.
3. I eat artichokes on my pizza.
4. I can't ride in a car unless I'm driving or I'll get carsick.
5. I held a baby today and she pooped on me. Actually, she didn't poop ON me, she just pooped while I was holding her. In her diaper. Which is where she is supposed to poop. Moving on.
6. I've had contacts since sixth grade, and when I'm not wearing them, I like to pretend I'm in a Monet painting.
7. I LOVE John Wayne.

Now for the blogs. This is always the hardest part, because I feel like I'm not being fair to all the blogs that I don't link to. Y'all will forgive me, won't you? If I don't link to you? I hope so. Because in truth I wish I could give everyone an award. It isn't fair. Darn, now I'm pouting.

Chrissy Peebles over at The Purple Brick Road.
Abby Fowers over at Something To Write About.
Donnelle Lacy over at a Little Dversion.
Anita Grace Howard over at A Still and Quiet Madness.
Mike Winchell over at Beanstalks & Bookends.
Janette Currie over at BookRambler.
Jaime Morrow over at Jaime.

Alright, the linking and mentioning and listing is done, so go clickety-click on things. I know how much fun that is. Besides, these people are really cool! I fully plan on congratulating them and announcing the fact that I've given them an award tomorrow. Okay, it's already tomorrow, but I'm gonna wait until later today, when you know, it's sunny and people are awake. Actually, I should really go to bed. I have stuff to do in eight hours or so.

Until next time...stay bloggy!

  6. Haha. Baily, I always <3 your posts but don't comment nearly enough. Your voice just sparkles and satisfies like a glass of lemonade. :)

    And "blurking"?? Why have I never heard this It ROX!!

    And artichokes are good on anything ... except maybe pancakes.

    Hats off to the Duke, and gracias fair lady for the awesome award!

    Congrats to you for winning it in the first place, and to the other nominees today, too!

  7. Congrats, Bailey! Yeah, babies poop. They vomit too. At least a diaper takes care of one end. You're on your own with the other. Trust me. I know. :)

  8. @Anita: Thank you dear lady! Blurking is something that just fell into my head one day. I mean, why not combine blogging and lurking into one word? We already do it in practice! :D

    @Colin: Thanks! The baby is super cute; I had so much fun making faces with her. I think I may have won the face contest, but then again, her faces were so adorable and she does have that "baby factor" to take into account...

  10. Congratulations, Bailey! You deserve it! Thanks for spreading the love!

  11. I love the random facts. Good thing the baby pooped where she was supposed to...

    Congrats, also, on your versatility!~

    I’m here visiting from Jeremy Bates' blog hop, and I love your blog!

    My favorite scary book is IT (scared the crap out of me as a kid), movie that horrified me most was Rob Zombie’s remake of Halloween, and I did not dress up this year, because I suck. One of my favorite costumes in the past was "Dead Baby Roller Blades."

    Happy Halloween!

I used to ask for proper grammar and such in comments. Now that I'm older, I realize it's still important, but that not everyone likes following the rules or even remembers the rules. Instead, let's just be kind.
