OMP – The Sunshine Award – SQUEAL!

There is *nothing* like starting your day off with receiving an award from a friend!  This Friday the 13th is staring off fabulous for this little oinker.  My tail is wagging so fast – mommy says that she can almost see me taking off from the speed of the wag – snorts – silly mommy.

This morning my friends (Basil, Buddy, Noah and Nacho) at http://hutchagoodlife.wordpress.com granted me the Sunshine Award.  What a delightful award on this cold-fixing-to-rain-kind-of Friday.  It’s really funny that they thought of another song when posting their award – “Ain’t no sunshine when she gone…”  My first thoughts are:

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away

This is how *I* feel about all of my friends here in blogville.  I love you all more than you know!

The rules of the Sunshine Award are:

1) Use the logo above in the post.  √
2) Link to whoever nominated you.  √
3) Write ten pieces of information about yourself.  √
4) Nominate ten fellow bloggers “who positively and creatively inspire others in the blogsphere.”  √
5) Leave a comment on the nominees’ blogs to tell them of the award.  √

Ten Facts About *ME* 🙂 

1. My favorite movie to watch is Charlotte’s Web.  I will watch it intently.  In fact, I made mommy watch it with me this week.  She cried like there was no tomorrow.  I snuggled her at the same time.
2. I have chores at the Hotel Thompson.  Can you believe the humans have cheap labor?  I help my daddy drag my dirty things to the laundry room on wash day.  And I help mommy put all of my toys in my toy chest in my bedroom.
3. I have a king sized Egyptian cotton sheet that is all mine. 🙂 I drag it around the house, play with it and sleep with it.  It’s kind of like my security blanket.  I “borrowed” it from mommy one day.  She saw how much I loved it and told me I could have it.  Isn’t she the best!
4. The worst thing that I do? – snorts.  I step on my mom/dad’s feet with my hooves.  I really don’t do it on purpose.  But man, do they make some neat moves dancing around when I accidentally do it.
5. I watch a lot of paranormal shows with my mommy.  Secretly I think I would be a great ghost pig investigator in search of the unknown.  Really, I just need my shot!
6. I type about 25 hpm (hooves per minute).  My time is increasing every month!
7. There is only one food that I don’t much care for.  I’ll eat it but it’s not my favorite.  In fact, the first time I had it, I do believe one ear went in one direction and the other ear went in the opposite direction.  What was the food?  Kumquats – sweet/sour combined.
8. My nana once pigsat me while mom/dad went out of town for THREE days.  When they came back home, I had ate so much at nana’s that I couldn’t even squeak!
9. At night, mom has to put my remote control for my television in my bedroom up on my book shelf.  If not, I will find it, turn on the television in the middle of the night and watch it.
10. I love bananas.  Once, mommy was holding one and wasn’t thinking about me being in the room.  I tried to climb up her bare legs to get to the banana.  Oops – I left some treadmarks on her long legs too.  But on the other hoof, I got the banana 🙂
