Okay, maybe not totally ignoring it. I will pause to poke fun at any person who weeps over the inauguration. It's politics people. He's a just a dude we picked for office. Let's wish him well and hope his plan matches his vision.
Anyway, I have a whole bunch of stuff (memes and an award) that I let go for a long time. I'm taking the massive lull in actual work (due to the deification inauguration) to bang this stuff out.
The first is a meme from Petra.
The Rules:
1.go to your documents
2. go to your 6th file.
3.go to your 6th picture.
4. blog about it.
5. tag 6 friends to do the same.
This was actually taken by my son. This is a portion of his dinosaur collection. He can name them all and it's always a kick to hear him quiz his mom on the names since she butchers the pronunciation and then she gets corrected by him. I think at this point he was lining them up for a pep talk in an effort to take over the world. Unfortunately for him, his grasp of "inanimate object" is tenuous at best. You're all safe for now...
Tag six people? Nah, not doing it today. Take the meme if you want the blog fodder.

I received an award from NoBS at I Meme it. It's the The Premios Dardo Award.
From NoBS's site:
This award acknowledges the values that every blogger shows in his or her effort to transmit cultural, ethical, literary, and personal values every day.
Wow, I've never been accused of most of that before, but I would like to sincerely give my thanks for the award. I would also like to advise you to find another ethical advisor if you're currently using me as a guidepost ;)
The rules:
1) Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award and his or her blog link.
2) Pass the award to 15 other blogs that are worthy of this acknowledgment. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.
15 Blogs! Holy crap, that's a lot. *Grumble* Fine, here goes. These bloggers are well worth the read if you don't have them on your list and are a better fit than I am to this award if you ask me :)
- Diane's Addled Ramblings
- The Stiletto Mom
- Clark Kent's Lunchbox
- Okay, Fine, Dammit
- Strange Pilgram
- Backpacking Dad
- justsomethoughts...
- Moonspun Spins
- ค קเภςђ ๏Ŧ tђเร คภ๔ ค ๔ครђ ๏Ŧ tђคt
Bah, that's close enough to 15.
Standard disclaimer for the awardees: Follow the rules or don't. This is a no pressure blog. I award people because I appreciate their blogs and I like to acknowledge them. If you don't want to pass it on, that's cool, just enjoy it.

Lastly for the day, a challenge to my nerdiness from Kirsten at The Soccer Mom Files. I have accepted her challenge.
Evidently I need more time in the sun. Take the test if you want to. I know there's got to be a bigger nerd than me out there.
