It’s kismet. Today’s the one month anniversary of nancythegnomette.com

Did nancythegnomette get to go out to a baller restaurant, slam goldschläger shots, or eat a whole double chocolate fudge cake?

No. There was something even better than all of that combined. And cubed.

The funniest, sexiest Newfie, Candice @ That’s Tangly believes I’m Kreativ.

Little ole me? ::Fans herself à la Scarlett O’Hara:: Seriously though, I’m flabbergasted all you gnarly peeps are reading my blog.

Mille grazie to Candice. Y’all should now go check out her blog . It will actually make you pee in your pants a little bit…it’s that funny. She’s also a supremely talented travel writer (and deep-sea technology writer at that. What what.)

OK-and now I’m supposed to tell 7 random facts about myself. Here goes:

1. I love rap and like to pretend I know the words to all Jay-Z songs.

2. I’m really tall. As in 5′11″ (or about 1.8 meters for you lucky metric people.)

3. I remember dates and events in eery detail.

4. I’m allergic to the red dye #4.

5. I have Eurotrash tendencies. Example 1: I love discotheques. Example 2: I heart Mika’s song “Take It Easy” . Example 3: I lived, illegally, in Amsterdam for 6 months. (Well, maybe that one’s just straight up felonious.)

6. I don’t have a desk. I work on one of those padded lap desks that you can buy at Barnes and Noble.

7. Whenever I’m say I’m from North Carolina, most people’s first reaction is to reference this video or this video . Just for the record, that young lady was from SOUTH Carolina, not North Carolina. We’re much more intelligent up here, 60 miles (95 kilometers) north.

And now…I want to pass on the love to 3 other fabulous bloggers and award the Kreativ Blogger Award.

1. Miles and Miles of Abbie:  It’s been so great to get to know Abbie in the Matador U program. She’s already scored a sweet writing gig with Planet Eye Traveler too.

2. Twenty-Something Travel:  Stephanie’s blog is an awesome travel resource; I love it and check it all the time for ideas and inspiration. (She’s a cool chick, too.)

3. Flying Suitcase:  I could read Neha’s writing all day long…it’s so beautiful. Her life is fascinating too.
