Hello Sailor, a most talented writer documenting her battle with chronic depression, veterinary nurse and the British daughter I never had, has nominated me for the One Loverly Blog Award. I thought it said Loverly but it’s Lovely. Loverly sounds so British and Eliza Doolittle, I’m sticking with Loverly.

As with many major blog awards, there are rules that the recipient must abide by; by which the recipient must abide; abide must thy recipient rules.
Rule 1: Thank the bestower of the award. Thank you Hello Sailor. Please read Carrie’s blog she is a funny and complicated woman. I have learned much from her.
Rule 2: Share 7 things about myself.
Seven Things About Maggie, The Lady Boner Edition (for my new readers, click on that and it will explain Lady Boner):
I had a serious Lady Boner for David Lee Roth in Van Halen’s “Panama” video. We had a VCR and I taped the video from MTV (yes, back when MTV was known for playing music videos, remember the rocket blasting off?) and I would watch David Lee Roth over and over again.

Paul Newman was hot whether the movie was Cool Hand Luke, The Sting, or Empire Falls when he was 80. Just H. O. T.

When I didn’t know who Zac Efron was and I saw Hairspray, I had a Mrs. Robinson Lady Boner for Zac.

Joel Kinnaman, The Killing, bad boy Lady Boner.

Republican Budget Lady Boner for Paul Ryan and he’s cuuuute!!!

Since it’s Gay Pride season, Gay Love Lady Boner for Rupert Everett. He’s dreamy. Or was.

And duh, Ryan Gosling.

Rule 3: Nominate 10 other blogs for the Lovely Blog Award. These are all good and they are funny or pretty so give them a click, you’ll thank me and I’ll probably get another major award.
Drunk Good Idea/Sober Bad Idea – Calhoun is a funny guy and most everyone I know can relate to his blog. Everyone I know over 21.
Serenity in the City – Margarita makes me pine for NYC. Katie, go through her photos!!
Sincerely, Slapdash – This is her second blog and I think it’s even better than the first. I hear what she’s sayin’ and I’m sorry she has to live in Flahrida.
Bring Me the Head of David Dixon – Guaranteed laugh a day! And he made this one just for me!!
BadFads – I’m a little annoyed with her because I now notice fashion but she is right and posts photos of famous people that make me feel better about my sartorial choices. She uses the word “sartorial”; it’s a good word.
Joe’s Shitty Ideas – Joe is a great idea. Just click and read just that one and tell me he’s not hysterical. Trust me. Really.
The Byronic Man – Very funny and a hottie. Click for his post on scary toys. Seriously. Now. It’s just a few words to your left.
Christopher DeVoss – DeVery funny. Here’s his blog on Bratz which are the devil’s spawn.
Not So Fancy Nancy – This is a unique blog, I don’t know of another like it. It is a tribute to Nancy’s father (she is going through his letters from WWII) and recognizes other WWII vets. I’ve just been watching Ken Burns’ The War. This generation is leaving us daily and I will miss them. Good stuff.
The Blissful Adventurer – In case you ever need to plan a trip to Italy or just want to drool over his photos of the country and the food and the wine. That’s what I do.
Rule 4: Tell the bloggers they’ve been nominated but they’ll know by the 4s of readers pouring in from my site.
Happy Monday!
I don’t know what makes this award acceptance so loverly – The fact that it’s loverly or that fact that it’s the lady boner edition. Epic 😀 xoxoxoxox
You inspire me!!!
I just think you’re loverly 🙂
No, you’re loverly!
Let’s just go back and forth till people puke because we are so positive and kind to each other!
LOL can we get T shirts made too? Like matching ones?
We could totally get matching T shirts and everyone would be like where’d you get that super cool Hello Something Fat Sailor T shirt and we would totally be like you can’t have one because we are so loverly and you totally can’t come in our club. And we’ll start a line of memes of us!
I too have a lady boner for all of these people, Zac is a favorite though. I want to kidnap him.
I’m too old for Zac. He needs to get in a fight so he’s not so pretty. How’ Miami??
The sun is intense and the men are douchey–it’s great!
thanks for the hot pics… lady boner SssHWING SssWHING
I was going to use that and didn’t know the proper spelling!!!
I put an extra sss for an the big lady boner effect but waynes world it is shwing shwing.. 🙂
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude!! Thanks a bunch. Of the men you posted I have lady boner for Ryan Gosling. Oh man!
Maggie,
You are lovely, indeed! And kudos for adding the amazing David Dixon. I think I’ll get his name tattooed on my ass.
Le Clown
You steered me to him M. LC! He makes me laugh out loud every single day.
Yay, more blogs to read! Although I hate to admit it, none of these guys gives me the Lady Boner. Maybe Paul Newman. Yes. Him.
whaaaatttt???? Gotta love Paul Newman!!! And there are some very funny bloggers in there. I am getting kinda jealous of all the NYC bloggers.
You’re one of the NYC bloggers, you’re just in our Western location.
bad boy lady boner? hahaha
Just watched The Killing with my sister, there are two lady boners at my house for Holder.
Yeah he is pretty wicked hot. Are you guys on season 1 or did the new one start?
Almost done with Season 2, I think one more and then I may have to watch the whole thing again!
I didn’t like how season 1 ended, maybe I’ll have to go back and give it another chance.
My brother was livid about the ending of Season 1 but I promise Season 2 is worth it!
please go back and edit out paul ryan!
Oh Rich, I cannot do that. I LOVE Paul Ryan and Chris Christie and Marco Rubio and Ronald Reagan. I’m very conservative for Portland, Oregon. Put me in the Bible Belt, I’m suddenly not so conservative.
Paul Ryan is dreamy. 🙂
-grin- a remarkably gentlemen oriented post this one. Paul Newman and Rupert Everett are high on my list as well. Along with Sean Connery but he’s just for that VOICE! Congratulations Maggie 😀
Ah, you deserve this and thanks for these blogs…know a couple but will have to explore the others. Congrats and thanks, Maggie!
Congratulations, Maggie! I know I’m always in for a good time when I come to your blog…except for Paul Ryan…we gotta talk! And thanks for following and passing my Serenity in the City along! Going around the city remembering I have a camera in my cell phone has given me a whole new perception and appreciation for the place where I live! Thank you!
Hilarious good stuff as usual Maggie! Geez, that sounded so British as well. And you are allowed to have lady boners for whomever you like, no need to be embarrased by them. They are your lady boners to bestow as you please! My latest blog post touches a little on my massive lady boner for the musician Jack White. Sigh. Rock and rollers always do it!
Just discovered Joe’s Shitty Ideas and he is so friggin funny.
cringe worthy. I love him.
