{the avant-garde of mediocrity}
I can’t pick a theme. Not to save my life, your life or even my cute little dog’s life. It doesn’t help that I am working off a 10+ year old laptop. My only guess since it has XP version 2002. The font on the Ryu theme is huge and I actually kind of dig that theme. And I am afraid if I shrink it the size will be too small on newer computers and people will be all “Wtf, CB?!” and I’ll be like, “Fuck off, you do it then.” and then all my lovely blogger relationships will disintegrate all over font sizes and theme choices. Hey, that shit could happen.

I like the Adelle, in fact I was waiting for WP to come out with something like that. But now that it’s here, it’s too cookie cutter to me. No offense if it’s yours. I have the upgrade so I could do CSS, but there is a slight problem. I only know Livejournal version of CSS because you can edit that shit. I can’t do CSS from scratch. I am a CSS interpreter. It would be really cool if WP worked like LJ and gave you something to edit versus a blank box that you have to place code into. I have a lot of time on my hands nowadays so maybe I could teach myself. Yeah, that’s probably unlikely.
I have a feeling by the time you’re reading this, Adelle will be my theme and you’ll be laughing at me. Ciao!
Yes, it’s from the same wonderful girl as the ABC award. NotQuiteAlice has passed to me another award for which I am so very thankful for. She really knows how to make a person feel good. So thank you, NotQuiteAlice, you’re a doll!
The Rules:
1. Display the logo on your page.
2. Finish the sentence: “A great reader is…”
3. Nominate 14 readers they appreciate.
4. Inform the readers with either comments or pingbacks.
Readership Award
A great reader is one who at least makes the attempt to read & comprehend your posts and can let you know by commenting or liking the post. I think likes are just as acceptable because I sometimes have no clue what I can say to the blogger about the topic and I still want them to know I read it and support what they are saying. So when I like your posts, know I read every word because I am not the greatest commenter. I’m like sub-par really. Really sub-par. Shut up.
My picks:
1. The Hook
3. Jet
6. Good2begone
7. John Zande
OK that’s not 14, but y’all can deal. Love you bunches.
I really have no clue what this award is about, but if fluff need be added to my blog, then why the fuck not?
ABC award thingy from Stuph/TwinDaddy.
“The ABC Award is a bit different from other awards in that the only rule is that you come up with something relevant to you for each letter of the alphabet.”
Well now I have a clue since I went to the Twin Daddy post and I gained a spiffy little graphic, too. Cuz that’s really what this shit’s all about. Collecting graphics and touting out that you’re teh’shitz.
So thank you, Not Quite Alice. You’re sweet and always know when I need more fluff (and to talk about myself). xx
A: Amazeballz. I never use it, but I like the word.
B: Branded. I consider my tattoos to be a bit of a branding from the times I chose to get them.

D: Damned. The only reason I am here is because I was damned to be. Bipolar was just thrown in for fun.

U: Udon noodles.
V: Victory is mine.
W: http://www.combatbabe.com

Merbear of KnockedOverByAFeather
This is hard so I nominate all who want to be nominated. Those on my short list, do not feel so inclined if awards make you itchy or anything. Love you all. Thanks again!
