I’d like to pass the award on to these bloggers who always manage to put a smile on my face.

Andrew – My very best buddy both in and outside the blogosphere. There are no words that can convey just how special his friendship is to me.

Liza – If you’ve ever visited Liza’s blog, you know exactly what I’m talking about. She is one of the sweetest, nicest, and prettiest girls I’ve had the pleasure of knowing.

Graham – Due to time zone differences, I rarely get the chance to chat with Graham, yet he still sends lots of nice little messages to let me know that he’s thinking of me.

Joe – Joe is one of my “real life” friends who just happens to blog. I met him in a bar in 2001, and being total geeks, we swapped email addresses instead of phone numbers. We saw each other only a few times over the years, yet he still recognized me in the mall last year and shouted “ChattieKat!” to get my attention. Now that’s something that doesn’t happen every day!

Mark – Mark always has a pleasant attitude, and he’s more than willing to help whenever I have a question. You rarely meet people as kind and caring as he is.

Congratulations, guys! And thank you for being such great friends! Please visit the original award post for the code and instructions for passing on the award.

I’d like to present this gift to: Johann the Dog, Choc Mint Girl, and Santa.

I’ve saved perhaps the coolest award ever for last. Jos of NoDirectOn (not: NoDirection) also presented me with the You Rock My Socks Award. Thanks a bunch, Jos! I’d like to present this award to these bloggers who never fail to rock my socks: Andrew, Tommy, K, Zath, and Trey.

Ev of My Life is Murphy’s Law presented me with the Be The Blog Award. This award was created to recognize those bloggers who are successful by “making their blogs their own, staying with them, being interactive with their readers, and just plain having fun”. Thanks so much, Ev! This award is extra special to me, because I had actually already received it directly from its creator, Mark of MeAndMyDrum.

Johann the Dog presented me with the Community Blogger Award. This award recognizes those bloggers who “reach out and make the blogger community a better one.” These bloggers do much more than just blog. They actively participate in the community aspect of blogging. I received this one recently as well, but I am just thrilled to have been presented with it again. Thank you so much, Johann! I now present the Community Blogger Award to these fine bloggers who are truly a gift to the blogging community: Emila, Groanin’ Jock, Byron, Chip, and Bucky.

Judy of Sugar Queen’s Dream presented me with the Thank You for Being My Friend award. Thanks, Judy! I am very honored to be your friend. You’re an amazing woman!

I present this award to:

Andrew, my best buddy in the entire blogosphere. Over the last several months, we have become very close. He listens patiently to all my crazy stories, laughs with me (and sometimes at me!), and just makes my life so much better by being a part of it.

Barry, whom I have had the pleasure of knowing for 13 years. He’s one of the nicest, most caring people I have ever met, and I am proud to be his friend!

Michael, whom I’ve also known for a very long time – 11 years! He has always been such a kind, interesting person that I am even willing to overlook the fact that he’s nuts about Dr. Who!

Garry, who has taught me so much about blogging, has been a source of inspiration, and has given me an amazing opportunity to guest blog on his site. Garry is one of the most down-to-earth guys you could ever meet, and I will forever be grateful for his friendship. Oh, and he’s a cutie!

Johann the Dog, the most intelligent, talented, caring dog I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. He spends an incredible amount of time helping others – both canine and human. I am honored to be his friend.

Max presented me with the I’ve Got a Friend in You award. Thank you so much, Max! I am certainly glad to have a wonderful friend like you.

I’ll pass this award on to:

John, whom I have recently begun corresponding with. John is an an amazing writer, and he has an equally amazing attitude. He recently joined our BlogsWeLuv writing team and has already made a big splash! I am thrilled to know him.

Graham, the nicest English guy I know. Unfortunately, due to time zone differences, we haven’t had a chance to chat much lately. He’s an amazing man, though, and I have no doubt that he will go very far in life.

Tommy, who has movie interests as crazy as my own! We could seriously chat about movies all night long! I always enjoy browsing through his Netflix queue.

Mark, one of the most talented writers I’ve ever met. He’s also extremely friendly, and doesn’t seem to mind the fact that my voice echoes on Skype. Mark is also part of the BlogsWeLuv writing team. We are so lucky to have him!

Amy, one of the sweetest people in the blogosphere. Reading her blog is always a pleasure.

Congratulations, everyone! Feel free to pass the award on as you see fit.

I am truly honored to be among the first recipients of the Be The Blog award, created and presented by Mark of MeAndMyDrum. According to Mark, a successful blogger is one who can “be the blog” – making it their own, staying with it, interacting with the readers, and just plain having fun. Thank you so much, Mark!

I’d like to pass the award on to these outstanding bloggers who know exactly how to “be the blog”!

Andrew, Johann, Tommy, Osbasso, and Liza
