Best Blog Award & some random nail pics!

I was tagged for the Best Blog Award by Veronica from the Chic & Shiny Blog - thanks for recognizing me! While I know I do not possess the best blog by any means, just being thought of for a second is such a nice gesture (=


The Rules
You must link back to the person who awarded this to you! 
Share 7 random facts! 
Award 15 blogs and Answer the questions listed above! 
And send the people awarded a comment letting them know!

Random facts
1. I was never a nail biter, always a nail picker.
2. The lack of intimacy in life thanks to social networking sites really does bother me.
3. Daisies are my favorite flower. I'm allergic to roses.
4. I love reading local news websites and watching the news.
5. I have too many cats (six).
6. My toenails are always done as a French pedicure, regardless of season, event, etc.
7. In spite of my bitching about it, I really do enjoy going to school.

Crazy Questions
1. Fave Color -  Pink and yellow. It's a tie.
2. Fave Song - I don't have a favorite song, but Alanis Morissette has a song for any mood.
3. Fave Dessert - Tempura ice cream at the hibachi place.. yum!
4. What is pissing you off - Nothing I really need to put on blast or make public.  Stupid shit that needs to just go away, lol.
5. When you're upset you - "clean" which usually means I start sorting things.  Not the typical cleaning like windexing or mopping, but I'll start putting things away where they belong.  That and cigarettes, bad bad.
6. Fave Pet - Neenar!
7. Black or White - Black.
8. Biggest Fear - Aquatic life, ALL of it.
9. Best Feature - My hair. It's long, thick, naturally blonde and maintenance free!
10. Everyday Attitude - Get through it, look forward to something to keep spirits up, keep a positive attitude.
11. What is perfection -  a fairytale!
12. Guilty Pleasure -  Cheap reality TV (Like the MTV Challenges LOL) and nail polish, of course (=

As for the tagging - a lot of the blogs I follow have very busy women behind them.  So I tag anyone and everywhere who has the time to fill it out.  For anyone I am following, I am obviously a fan of yours and think you have a great blog. Sounds like a cop out, but I stand by that!

NOW! Here is some random pictures taken from my archive of manicures from the past. (To keep up appearances, of course.)

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I was given an award!  My first from one of the nicest bloggers I have encountered yet!  The dollface over at Toes That Twinkle has awarded me the stylish blogger award.  Thank you so much.  You give lots of comments (which are especially exciting for new bloggers!) and have just a fantastic blog!



These are the rules to the award:
1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Award 15 recently discovered great bloggers.
4. Contact these bloggers and tell them about the award!


Ok part two; 7 things about me. (no judging LOL)
  1. I just graduated with my associates of arts degree in K-12 Education.
  2. I have Polish, German and Irish blood.  I credit my 6 foot & blondness to the German.
  3. I have a 19 year old sister and a 25 year old brother, neither of which give a crap about nail polish, LOL.
