Is This Some Kharmic-Chi Love Thing Happening Here Baby Or What?

Lovely and Feathery Sparky Duck has awarded me a Schmoozie and I am just so tickled. I have always KNOWN I was a schmoozer. Heck I worked for Kaiser, of course I can bring it! I particularly liked Spark's alternate definition of schmooze,

"Also think schmoozing is having a way with words that you are able to call someone an asshole to there face and they actually say thank you for the compliment with a smile. So, as I hand out this lovely honor to 4 more recipients, I will allow my winners to decide which side of the definition they fall on."

Oh yeah, I can roll like that! Of course much as I love The Duck, he did steal my Matt Taggie (shut up Bond!) but I shall try to survive.....

My 4 Schmoozin Bloggers are


Bond over at THE COUCH. I love this blog and it's owner. Bond is an awesome and and lovely human being as well. His fiction is amazing, go read the matinees! And if you want to see the finest example of blogging community involvement go check out his latest post and join us in his latest mission. Or you can go directly to my next choice!

Dixie's Heart And Soul. This lady is one class act folks. She brings both heart and soul to her blog. Please head on over and while there, wish her son Matt good luck and safe travels as he heads to basic training with the US Marine Corp. Thank you Dixie for sharing this journey with us.

Next up, who else but Kyra at 108th? How can I not give her the schmooze lovin's? She is making me one of her bitches. You don't get schmoozier than that. And just cause I wuvs her I actually gave her a picture. Kyra's place makes me think, makes me laugh, and occasionally snort beverages out my nose. Got to love that.

And last, but certainly not least, The Lovely and Athletic Desert Songbird over at The Icebox. Always there with a zinger when I need one, I just love this lady! Go read now!

That about wraps it up for me, I am off to slay more trees in the name of overtime. Speaking of U2 (yes I know, cheesy lead in) go check out The Ducks U2 Contest. But suck at it cause I wanna win, ok? Cause he is claiming little known U2 songs and that is a bold statement that I must see for myself.

Keep On A Rockin Me Baby

I rock. I really do. You see I know this because not one, but TWO of my favorite girlie bloggers say so! I even get a banner! Here is what these two lovely ladies (although I might be using that term loosely....) have to say about moi.

From Desert Songbird - Starrlight is wonderfully quirky, slightly wicked, and always entertaining. Supremely knowledgeable about music, her posts are like an invitation to a party. A single mom, I suspect her daughter has inherited Starr’s rapier wit and savvy.

And From Belle - Starr is another awesome girl blogger. I feel so fortunate to have come across. She and I share so much in common we have a running joke that we were separated at birth. And indeed, we could be sisters! We have mommyhood in common, as well as most musical and movie preferences as well. And she is moving closer to me in a few years! Get ready, mama! I will be visiting you often, as I escape Alabama anytime I have the chance!

You called it Desert, The Kidlet is rather zippy like me. I am secretly afraid! And Belle, we better start saving up bail money, hun, cause we will need it :P

As you can see, I officially rock. Don't argue with these women, Desert Songbird is an Aquarius too, and we are skilled in the ways of ninja mind meld. She could melt your cerebellum cyberly! Belle did roller derby, which aside from being ridiculously cool, means she could kick your ass. So glad I have them both on MY side!

It totally goes without saying that had they not given me this I would SO be giving it to them both. It is my turn now to name 10 Girl Bloggers *I* think rock:

*** I would like to say that if they were willing to put on dresses and maybe do obscene things with orifices and watermel...nah....cantalopes, I'd be willing to go Drag on this for Matt Man, Bond, Sparky Duck, and Dr. Blogstein cause I think they all rock. How bout it guys?***

Buttercup - The girl just got back from India and did the greatest write up of her time. I highly recommend you check her out.

Oh, The Joy - I want to be her when I grow up! Rooster Girl and The Mayor are lucky to have such a funny and kind woman for a mother. Just don't talk about Park Ranger Uniforms too loudly, mmk?


Echos of A Dream - Love this girl. Her once and former mechanic didn't sound half bad either.


Miss Frou Frou - I Love her posts. She has a quirky sense of humor and her Thursday Thirteens are a favorite and early stop for me. And how can I not love a girl who when asked for a word association for "riding" gave "crop" as an answer?


Thinker - The girl is freaky young to be this freaky good at writing. She is getting ready for college, while battling SAT's, insomnia, and an obsession with her iPod.


Kyra over at The 108th - People, this woman just had a baby and she is STILL on top of her meme's. I bow to her! 4 kids, 1 Dean, and the finest foul mouthed blog it has been my privilege to read TOTALLY put her on the list


Allie D over at Memoirs of a Gouda She is the Head Cheese, people. From ruminations on The Dreaded "C" word, to what friendship means in this day and age.


The Rock Chick - This was a no brainer. She is funny and has the best use of a Queen quote as it pertains to Paris Hilton!


NoMas - She is so laid back! Go read about how she gave up the urban rumble for farm life.


Jenny Haha - She is hysterical. It makes no matter if she is talking wolf crotch or shaved animals.


**Update**...see what happens when Starr posts after at looong week? She forgets half the shit she is supposed to say! Ladies if you are listed above, grab the banner and then pass on the love to 5 girl bloggers you love!
