Mystery Blogger Award (x 3)
Considering the content I write and the IRL tidbits that I Tweet, I'm pretty sure there's not much left about me that remains in mystery.

Sunshine Blogger Award: Finally, an Award Post
Hey, it's been a while I've done an award post (and by a while, I mean...*checks,* 2 years. *Gulps*). Apologies to all the people who came up with the greatest questions ever that I never answered, some of whom have since left the blogsphere.
