Monday Musings: The Versatile Blogger Award

My sincerest thanks to the talented Tracey Hansen who nominated me for The Versatile Blogger Award. I strongly encourage you to visit her at her blog, Tracey Hansen Will Write for Food. Tracy’s razor-sharp wit is either the stuff of brilliance or a masked cry for help. I totally vote the former! Check her out.

The rules for this award are as follows:

1.       Thank and link to the person who nominated you.
2.       Share seven random facts about yourself.
3.       Pass the award along to 5 new-found blogging buddies.
4.       Contact the winners to congratulate them.

Seven random facts about me:

1. My eclectic music taste means that I have songs from Dean Martin, Nirvana, TobyMac, Martina McBride, ABBA, Olivia Newton-John, John Mellencamp, Christina Aguilera, Van Halen, and Doris Day on my MP3 player. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

2. I have narrow feet, making it particularly hard to buy trendy shoes.

3. The only bone I’ve ever broken is my pinkie toe. I did have some trendy flip-flops after that incident.

4. I’m a preacher’s daughter – along with Jane Austen, the Brontë sisters, Pearl S. Buck, Aretha Franklin, Jessica Simpson, Condoleezza Rice, Tori Amos, and Katy Perry.

5. I have started a young adult novel about vampires . . . as if the world needs my offering to this genre.

6. My children have designated me “Grammar Freak.” I think that’s hyperbole.

7. I have ~~two,~~ ~~three~~, okay, four cats. We selected two cats and brought them home, and apparently if you feed them, name them, and groom them, the two strays become yours.
