Alright I just got nominated for the prestigious Sunshine award by captureyouphotography aka sonyalira photography.
Man that is so cool. What a compliment. Sunshine can only mean good, right? I mean you don’t get a sunshine award for worst blog ever do you?
Do you?? Cause I already have enough of those.
No really, thank you Sonya and Lira and everyone at Capture You Photography, you know who you are. Or at least I hope you do.
But wait… in order to win it I’ve got to work for it.
I, myself, am eager to see how many hoops I’ll jump through to get a pat on the back…so lets see what I got to do:
To accept this award:
Thank the person who nominated you and link back to their blog.
List 11 facts about yourself.
Nominate 10 other bloggers for the award.
Announce the nominations you made.
Ok thanks have been made…..and the link….ok. Now 11 facts about me. Only 11?
Strap yourselves in for this guys cause what you’re about to read is True or, at the very least, a lie that has been manipulated to look like the truth. Here we go….
11 Facts about me
Fact 1-I like to criticise and analyse compliments of any kind until eventually the compliment becomes an insult. For example, Initially I was excited about getting this award. Then I did the maths. If Someone nominates 10 people for this award and to win it they have to nominate 10 people who also nominate 10 people who nominate 10 and so on it was inevitable that I get nominated eventually as I’m probably the only one left.
Fact 2) Vegas E. Sundance is not my real name. My real name is weirder. Yep, Weirder E. Sundance. That’s me! I think it’s German.
Fact 3) Animals hate me. This morning as I was walking to the train station I whistled at a Robin Redbreast. As I walked away I heard him tell his friends I was a dick.
Fact 4) Women hate me. This morning as I was walking to the train station a women overheard my conversation with a Robin Redbreast and thought I was whistling at her. As I walked away I heard her tell her friends I was a dick.
Fact 5) I once owned a fake sweet shop in the center of town. The sweets were real it was the shop that was fake. (True story. Some loophole in a contracting law or something.)
Fact 6) Before my first child I used to go on holidays to war zones because it was cheaper than a package holiday.
Fact 7) Before my second child I used to have only one child.
Fact 8) Before my third child I hope to still have two children.
Fact 9) Yesterday I reblogged a post and was surprised at how much easier it was than thinking up and writing my own.
Fact 10) I proposed to my wife by writing a 270 page novel and had her book club nominate it as the book of the month. It was called ‘A Novel Proposal’. The fifth chapter held the proposal but she fell asleep mid way through the fourth.
Fact 11) I generally refuse to divulge an uneven amount of information about myself…..but just this once I’ll make an exception.
……So there we have it, 11 facts about me.
10 Blogs I choose to nominate are:

go to my latest post on the excessive gardener, I nominated you for the ABC award, yesterday. Lucy
I did not get that nomination. So I say to you that it is a phony nomination! Where are all these awards coming from and do they actually mean anything? Im going to write an angry post about it!
Just before you posted me I was wondering how you’re supposed to know you’ve been nominated. Something could have been lost in the instructions. So, besides you I have notified the other 4 blogs.I already looked up both the awards and they do exist. I was a bit skeptical, too.. The instructions for the ABC are a lot easier than the Sunshine. But, do notify your nominees. I thought you had gotten the notice and that you were paying me back with the sunshine. That’s why I called you stinker. Sorry. Lucy
But what do you mean Legit? How do the people over at the “Sunshine Award” know you’ve been nominated? I wasnt given any way to contact them or let them know!
I have no idea. We were each nominated for an award by Sonya Lira. Get in touch via her photo blog and find out if she knows before I have to write any more stuff about myself. Lucy
It sounds an awful lot like a chain letter, doesn’t it. If we each keep nominating, the entire blogosphere will be up for the awards.
Ha thats exactly what I said! Check this out https://rushhourrant.wordpress.com/2014/01/14/the-rant-has-a-go-at-a-blog-award/
And congratulations again.
You’ve earned it. Lucy
Mr Weirder thanks for the nomination…thought I am not sure about the award and its conditions.
Surely, you cannot have a serious award without a small print similar to: ‘If you break the chain by refusing to accept this award, twenty angels would be forced to leave Heaven and live on Earth to its bitter end.’
Yeah I know. Check out my post The Rant Has A Go at A Blog Award. I realized these were bullshit after I nominated you. I’ve won 2 awards since but haven’t touched them. Sorry about that but I did nominate you cause I liked your blog so take some solace in that and scrap the Award.
