So I’m a huge slacker. Y’all knew that already, so this? Should come as NO SHOCK at all.
But….the lovely @Anne54304 has gifted me with TWO awards at this point, and I haven’t managed to get them up. #shameface
The first one is the 
award.
Rules say I need to solve these riddles three, and then harass five other bloggers.
1. What do you love most about blogging?
2. What do you dislike about blogging?
3. What is the one thing you hope to achieve from blogging?
1. I love running my mouth sharing my stories, opinions and feelings. From the time I was little, I wanted to Write (yes, with a capital W. #amdork, remember?) My mom still has these little children’s books that I wrote, and illustrated, when I was in grade school. I wrote more than my share of dark angsty poetry as a teenager. And I wrote steamy, short stories full of way too much improbable sex in those few short years after high school. I write. I have to, or I go a little dead inside. I know, because I’ve tried. Blogging is my way of empty teh crazie out of my head.
2. I hate how exposed it leaves me feeling. Oh, I have no issue laying teh crazie out in the open for the nameless masses. But when that nameless mass started taking on shapes, and faces… When those faces acquired names beyond quirky screen names… When those real names turned out to be real relatives and friends, that I might run into at the grocery store….
Suddenly I felt (feel) a lot more naked. I find myself hesitating before I hit publish at times, weighing my need to lay it all out for inspection (by myself as much as anyone else) with my need to not be embarrassed at the post office.
Eh. Most of the time? My pride loses out!
3. This is a much harder question for me. On one hand, yes, I’d love to discover fame and fortune through blogging. I’d love to be the new cooler, less asshatish version of dooce. On the other hand, I don’t know as I’m that delusional. And connecting with people, and, as previously mentioned, sharing what goes on in my head, is an awesome thing to be able to get out of any activity.
So…on to 5 bloggers that I lurve.
In absolutely no particular order (and keep in mind that I’m trying to name 5 maybe-less-known that oh, redneckmommy)
1) Welcome to My Life by Becky
2)No Longer Quivering (Note: Absolutely nothing like any of the other blogs on my list. The stories of the women who have escaped various forms of patriarchal mind-control can be incredibly disturbing, albeit fascinating.)
3)The UnMom by Keely
4) Taste Like Crazy by Amy
5)SnackiePoo
And then there was award number two, 
For this one, I’m asked to link 12 blogs. So take the first five, and repeat. Yes, I am THAT lazy. Actually, I’d totally link the following ones for the first award, too. So yeah. Take whichever award you wish, or both. It’s all good.
6)Princess Jenn
7)Tom The Girl 
Vixen’s Den
9)A Very Good Year
10)Inverse Candlelight
11)Ain’t Yo Mama’s Blog
and last, but certainly not least,
12)Child’s Play x2
You know how the game works, if you’re so inclined, take and tag.
Love and such,
Jen thePsychobabble
