I Told You Guys I Would Screw This Up

This is why I stink at getting awards.  I am no good at remembering following the rules.

Since one of the conditions to accepting the Petey Award [and keeping Bruce from hunting you down, hee] is that you have to mention the person who gave it to you in three consecutive posts on your blog.

I didn't have the dang award for one day and messed up.

I thought remembered incorrectly I was supposed to mention the person I gave it to.

Imagine my surprise when I got an email from Tee [who gave me the award] asking why I hadn't mentioned her yet.

Yep - you mention the person you received it from.

Yikes!

Profuse apologies for mentioning the person I gave it to [Hed] instead and a couple of fixes later and I think [think!] I have fulfilled my duties as a recipient of Petey.*

Bruce, man, I love ya' - but do me a favor.  Don't create anymore awards.  You're stressing me out. heehee

*No, my mentions were not consecutive due to Grimmy's condition - but this extra mention should make up for me bending the rules a bit. I hope.

I like it! LOL! I think Bruce created the hardest set of rules ever for this Petey Award. I was certainly struggling with them also!

Getting the awards=awesome.
Following the rules= sometimes not so awesome.

I always have a hard time passing them on because I want to give them to everyone, but I can't.

I thought this was the internet and everyone made up their own rules! At least, I always do.

One rule I have is that I almost never pass things along directly. I hate to be put on the spot to choose who I love best for whatever reason. I dislike leaving anyone out. I dislike bestowing honour on someone who doesn't want it.
So I don't.
And I don't like being told what to do. I get enough of that in my real life. I refuse to forward forwards too. I also feel they are pretty meaningless unless they are a video of someone doing something stupid or a picture of a cute creature. But I still don't pass them on.

I don't have a lot of friends.

Pfft if that evil Bruce gives you a hard time, give me a call. I have the ways to keep that man in line. You should have seen the rules before I changed them lol
