I Like Fireworks

It has come to my attention that the lovely Alana Noel Voth (author of the poignant “Rock Stars in Particular Order,” a recommended read from me) nominated me for a Kreative Blogger Award. This nomination apparently means that the nominator finds the nominated blog worthy of such a label/nomination. Thank you Alana. I feel quite flattered by this nomination as such, especially since I find Alana truly and deeply inspiring.

As I understand it nominees are invited to nominate seven blogs accordingly for the Kreativ Blogger Award and also list seven things that they like. Alana also nominated Nikki Magennis, Donna George Storey, and Craig Sorensen, all of whom would likely have been on my list of nominees along with Alana herself. In addition, Donna and Nikki have already nominated themselves a number of the blogs that would also likely be on my list. Probably I should thank all these people for making it much easier to narrow any list of nominees from me down to seven.

Seven blogs I have appreciated/enjoyed include the following.

Kristina Wright: Musings of an Insomniac Writer
Marina St. Clare
Scarlett Greyson
Neve Black: Foreplay for Your Mind
Cora Zane: Stars Will Cry
Tony Comstock: The Art & Business of Making Erotic Films
Oscarelli

Seven things I like —

Fireworks
Bees
Butterflies
Circles
Glitter
Baseball
The smell of indoor pools*

Looking at that list, I can see why I like summer so much too.

Speaking of summer, and of fireworks, happy Fourth of July to all celebrating it as a holiday, and to all who aren’t, happy fourth of July as, you know, the fourth day of the month of July. :)

Thank you again Alana!

Xoxox,
Emerald

* Yes, it is the chlorine smell I like — not by itself, as that can be quite hazardous to one’s health and, in my experience, rather unpleasant. But when diluted in a swimming pool, I find the smell sublime.
