Diamonds In The Rockpile Award 2008

.....From my friend, Mojo (an extraordinarily talented photographer) who writes Why? What Have You Heard? all the way from the great state of North Carolina. This is no ordinary award. He created it not to be given out or passed around by others, but only from "Me to Thee" as he penned it.
I am honored to be among the first he chose for the 2008 Diamond in the Rockpile Award. Click here to find out more about the following winners and what he so eloquently had to say about them.

The other nine recipients are Napaboaniya, Written, Inc., Authorblog, Nice Cream, On The M104, Lisa's Chaos, Tarheel Ramblings, Okay, Fine, Dammit, and Liquid Illuzion.

He writes of my humble abode in the mountains of Bloggingham:

Mimi, Queen of Memes, is probably best known for her "BlogBlast for Peace". An artist in many senses of the word, "Mimi Pencil Skirt" looks at life through a unique prism of optimism and humor, of deep-seated compassion and firmly rooted conviction. There are no secrets here. What you see is Mimi Unplugged, an unvarnished, undiluted incredible human being with a sly wit and a quick mind. You'll laugh, and occasionally you'll cry. But you'll never doubt. And if you should need a lighter view of life, you can always check out her "Dating Profile of the Day". If that doesn't have you feeling better about yourself after a few entries, seek help immediately.'

I am flattered and appreciative. Thank you so much, Mojo. I see this photographer (an artist in his own right) around the blogosphere quite frequently. He is never slow to respond to your comments on his blog and quick to dole out meaningful, precise, helpful, and encouraging emails and comments to everyone he visits.
The nice part is - he means it.

I'm proud to be part of his rock collection. Thank you!
