Because everybody loves chain letters Raymond memes, we’re doing two for the price of one. Which also happens to be two for the price of two, since every single post is free. But I digress.

Diana bestowed upon me the Kreativ Blogger award. (Is this a mocking sort of award? Am I “kreativ” because I’m not actually creative?) Verbosity tagged me with the commenter meme, so we’re going to break all the rules and combine the two in some horribly messy way. If you want to meme on your own blog, well: TAG! You’re it. The rules are the usual: link back to who tagged you, do the meme, tag some more unsuspecting bloggers. Go!

Six things that make me (kreativly?) happy:

1. Sleep.

2. Swing music.

3. Tea and chocolate, preferably together. Or hot chocolate substituted for tea, but still with chocolate on the side. Or I guess baked goods. Baked goods could be on the side. Tea or hot chocolate with chocolate and/or baked goods.

4. Jane Austen adaptations on DVD.

5. New fabric. Or other art or craft supply. It’s like a neatly folded stack of possibility.

6. Husband. Kids. Husband and kids. (Only my own. Yours are nice, but you can keep them. Thanks.)

My last five commenters (yes it’s supposed to be ten but I’m lazy):
Coordinated Chaos
The Geek Inside
Tropical Fruit
Miscellaneous Title X
Mom, According to Plan

And some questions about them:

1: What is your favorite post from number 3’s blog?
Her Wordless Wednesday cracks me up this week.

2. Has number 10 taken any pictures that have moved you?
Sorry, I only did 5.

3. Does number 6 reply to comments on their blog?
Again, only 5.

4. Which part of blogland is number 2 from?
Is blogland a place? I’m not even sure what this question is asking. Sari lives in the southwestern United States.

5. If you could give one piece of advice to number 7 what would it be?
Number 7, you are very angular. Consider eating more ice cream to add curves. But not too many curves—you don’t want to be mistaken for number 8.

6. Have you ever tried something from number 9’s blog?
Once again, only 5.

7. Has number 1 blogged something that inspired you?
I keep thinking about the teapot museum. What did they spend all that money on? If you were building a teapot museum, wouldn’t you stick a few teapots on side tables in an old house and call it a day? Maybe put in a nice tea shop. But still. How much could that really cost?

8. How often do you comment on number 4’s blog?
Sometimes. Either more or less often than she would like, probably. Maybe half the time?

9. Do you wait for number 8 to post excitedly?
Okay, sure.

10. How did number 5’s blog change your life?
What the—now blogs are supposed to change my life? That’s a pretty tall order, don’t you think?

11. Do you know any of the 10 bloggers in person?
Yes, but I can’t tell you who. Need to protect their anonymity and all.

12. Do any of your 10 bloggers know each other in person?
Uh… I have no idea. I would guess not.

13. Out of the 10, which updates more frequently?
Several of them are posting every day in November.

14. Which of the 10 keep you laughing?
(See below.)

15. Which of the 10 has made you cry (good or bad tears)?
Laughing, crying, whenever appropriate. None of your blogs make me cry regularly, and all of them make me laugh regularly, both of which are good things.
