Go get yourself a cup of coffee or tea or whatever you drink to relax. Three fingers of gin isn't bad.

I'm not kidding. Go.

I'm sorry. I think I'm out-nerding some of you. I just about out-nerded myself there for a second. What I am trying to say is: sit back, relax, and enjoy the following submissions to Five Star Friday like this is one big, fat magazine. It's good for you.

Five Star Friday runs on reader submissions (that's you) and, therefore, loves you, so give some sugar back with your submission of another author's excellent weblog post. Just make sure it's in English. My swedish is rusty.

Then, because you're slutty, subscribe to Five Star Friday so that you can keep up with us every week, and grab a button for your website while you're at it.

I'm sorry about the slutty comment. I didn't mean it. Kisses.

Sweet! Thanks, Jules & 5SF. I admire your abilities to recognize my self-appointed intellectual status.

I think six fingers of gin are exactly what I need to celebrate this lovely mention.

Thanks. This made my week!

Hot dog! I'm always glad to receive props for my ramblings. Thanks to both Five Star Friday and my mystery nominator!

Thank you! And thanks to my sister for the nomination. I'd like to thank the academy, and of course God, and my stylist, and my dog, and my kids, and my husband, and...


Thank you.
