Rockin' Girl Bloggers

So guess what? Yesterday Schmutzie commented to say that she'd given me an award: The Rockin' Girl Blogger Award. I think it makes me sound a bit like a 22 year-old punk rocker banging out the angst on my keyboard—in other words, hipper than I actually am. If it weren't for the hair, I wouldn't have much credibility on the hip front.

And speaking of my hair, the award kind of matches it:

Anyway, now it's my turn to pass on the love. I know some rockin' women bloggers out there who are wicked hip (or just wicked wacky, which in my book earns bonus points). Please go check out:

1. Valerie. It says right in her tagline that she's not glamorous or hip, but I suspect that's only because she doesn't have time. She teaches computer programming, violin, and Tango; plays in a band called Tango Mucha Labia; dances regularly; makes her own jam and pickles; chops wood; maintains her car and her house; studies permaculture.... and I know I'm forgetting a few things. She's an inspiration to me daily.
2. If you hadn't heard, Mainely Madge is back, and she's Madgetastic!
3. Here's a twofer: The amazingly creative Summer Pierre turned me on to a college friend who homeschools in Vermont. Their lives are so different from mine, and so interesting.

OK, I can think of tons more, actually, but I promised myself I'd log off the computer at 10pm, and it's now 10:08. No time for updating my blogroll with the actual blogs I've been reading via RSS feed lately; that will have to wait until tomorrow, at which point you'll be able to see many more lovely ladies whom I've been reading regularly. Rock it, chiquitas!
