I’m Brilliant!

July 24, 2008

Jules, of Jules Stones, says I am brilliant.  [preens]

Hey!  I heard that!  Who’s snickering?

I can prove I’m brilliant.

Brilliant
Me: Brilliant

See?  Told you so.  Pft.  I took this self-portrait in front of the mirror and the truth was revealed in a blinding flash.  I am brilliant.  So there.

[frowns]  What do you mean Jules wasn’t talking about me?  Okay, okay, okay, the award says my blog is brilliant — but same diff, right?  Right.  [gives that look to anyone thinking about arguing]

Now — to distribute my wonderful award:

Melli — of Insanity Prevails –  who is so brilliant she positively glows.

Doug — of Waking Ambrose –  who won’t accept the award because it doesn’t fit his crusty persona, but whose humorous bite never fails to inspire me to think.

David — of Authorblog — for raising the bar of creativity ever higher.

Holly of — Holly’s Never Everland — she’s either so brilliant she glows, or she’s set her hair on fire again.

Tom of — Patterns of Ink — read his prose, you’ll understand without explanation.

Pauline — of Glimpses Intangible — who doesn’t post often, but writes poetry with heart, soul and a passion for God.

Jules — of Jules Stones — not just because she gave the award to me, but because she writes from her heart, and shares pieces of her soul as she tries to walk hand-in-hand with God.

  • JFargo says:

    Congratulations! Very cool!

    Also, that picture? I don’t know how many times I’ve done that. The worst is when I’m trying to capture a one-of-a-kind picture through a window, and forget the flash is on.

  • Jules~ says:

    Quilly, you are so cute and always full of fresh surprises. I love your ‘twist acceptance speech’. ;-) And thank you for passing it right back (I didn’t expect that) and your knid words. That blesses me greatly.

  • Brian says:

    Beyond brilliant I might add… and I did. :)

    Have a great weekend and give O.C. a hu.. a smile. :D

  • polona says:

    you really shine, and you have proved it!
    kudos!

  • Quilly says:

    Holly — when you’re hot, you’re hot!

    Jeremiah — hush! I wanted folks to think I did this on purpose! ;)

    Jules — I’m cute! I’m cute! She thinks I’m cute!

    Brian — I will hug him — and give him your regards.

    Polona — I have proven I am a nut!

  • nea says:

    haha. OC does have a point, but of course you are brilliant also. But then I suppose it takes one to recognize one, haha……:):)

  • Quilly says:

    Nea — Blinded by the light! I do dazzle myself sometimes.

  • Bill says:

    Interesting self portrait. A little bit of Frederico Felini in you Quilly. I have a self portrait as well. I took a picture of my face one day whilst trying to see why the flash wasn’t working. A waste of film oh those many years ago.

  • Brooke says:

    Pfftt… I knew you were brilliant, didn’t need any convincing.
