Liebster Blog Awards – It’s Time to Update Your Reader!

I got nominated twice for the Liebster blog awards by Gay Dinosaur Tales and A Guy Without Boxers, two blogs with great content I started following recently. The Liebster Blog Award was created as a way of making readers aware of blogs that they should check out. I for one think it’s a good idea because unless you constantly check on the categories of your choice 24/7, you will definitely miss out on some of the good stuff that is out there.

 

Transient Playgrounds and Fleeting Friendships

Years ago I read a science fiction short story about a wildlife reserve that one could experience in two ways – as a tribesman who is a full participant in all the activities of the habitat or as a spectator who could observe every event that took place but not engage in any of it. Reading posts often gives me similar sensation to the latter experience: of being an observer and witnessing the experiences of another person without actually being a part of the event. Other times I feel like I’m reading a constantly evolving autobiography in small parts as opposed to reading a summary of someone’s life that has been whittled down and prettied up for public consumption.

 

One Lovely Blog Award Nomination

The datingbitch whose blog I’m a huge, huge fan of nominated me for the One Lovely Blog Award. I’m very thrilled and honoured since I didn’t actually think many people would be interested in what I had to say when I started posting.

This one comes with some interesting rules for acceptance notably the seven unknown things which is probably why it’s taken me so long to put up this post – I mean, what seven things about me do I consider interesting? Do I really want people to know those things about me??
