Linky love

posted in Blogging, Memes, Writing the Blog |

I have been awarded the “Thinking Blogger” award again, by two different bloggers, an embarrasment of riches.

Blog Antagonist tagged me first.  She and I go back many years on various debate boards; there was a period where I was very angry with her for a variety of reasons, but time passes, people change, anger fades, and, besides, I enjoy reading her blog.  She does good work when she writes from the heart.

Rhonda, of Worth the Wait, also tagged me.  Rhonda is mother by adoption of two children from Russia, and is learning to deal with “instant motherhood”.

Once again, I’m supposed to tag five bloggers who make me think, typically to a specific post that struck my brain in a particular way…I’ve been thinking and thinking and thinking.  Half my problem is that many of the ones I’d like to tag have already been tagged, and part of the meme is to tag someone who hasn’t been tagged yet.

So:

American Family makes me laugh and think about adoption and racial issues.

Cephalogenic plays with words all the time.  Since I’m a wordmeister, I love his stuff.

Wandering Visitor is a medical resident doing her rotations.  Right now, she’s doing dermatology; I don’t know what’s next.  She posts impressions of her work, thoughts about people in general–she’s pretty good.

EnviroWoman’s quest to live a plastic-free life for a year has been fascinating.  She makes you realize just how much plastic there is in our everyday world.  And she’s just plain funny, too.

Johnny has said good-bye; he wrote his farewell-cruel-world post this week.  I am crushed.  He always had an interesting outlook on things, pondered some of life’s imponderables, and threw in tasty-sounding recipes to boot.  So this one is kind of posthumous (postblogous?), but well-deserved.  Read him up quick, because he’s going to delete his blog in about a week-and-a-half.

    I understand it. I thought of you when I was supposed to tag five, but I remember you had gotten it earlier, so thats why I didn’t. But you’ve had some really marvelos posts, even more so lately.
