I would like to thank whomever thought of this award, and for giving a kid from a West suburban, upper-middle class background a chance! I don’t know where I’d be without a stable family, a good education and the opportunities awarded to someone of my class.
Today, I sit at my MacBook Pro before my two cats, a messy apartment, “The Town” showing on HBO for the gazillionth time, a winner of the Versatile Blogger Award. Who is responsible for bestowing this honor upon McCrabass? Why it’s none other than the fabulous Sandra who writes the faboo blog, She Can’t Be Serious. This also means that someone chose my blog as one of their 15 featured blogs. My mission, along with walking the Earth and ridding it all things bad with my Ouiser Boudreaux wisdom, is to pay it forward by honoring 15 blogs I find to be apex of awesome.
During my tenure as an award recipient, I must agree to the following conditions:
1) Thank the person who gave me this award and link them back to their post.
2) Share 7 things about myself.
3) Pass this award along to 15 recently discovered blogs and let them know about it!
First, about McCrabass..
1) I worked in Hollywood for a long time in post-production. I actually worked in the field I got my degree it–a first for many and very rare in this day and age. I left because I got tired of being treated like crap by a handful of people who had all the power–undeserved power. Being yelled at by someone because their Starbuck’s wasn’t foamy enough is a big bowl of wrong. I don’t care how many men you blew to get your job.
2) I’ve had the chicken pox twice, and have been bitten by a Black Widow Spider once.
3) When I say no, I mean it.
4) Contrary to what the public seems to think, I don’t think clipped cat hair would make a good sweater.
5) I could watch “Godfather Pts I & II” over and over again. Same with “Just Wright.” Somewhere between those three choices is sanity.
6) The most unusual job I ever had was editing porn.
7) If you tell my parents about #6, I’ll have to hunt you down and cover you in cock rings.
Now, for the blogs I dig and are now also worthy recipients of the Versatile Blogger Award. Some are funny, some more serious, but they’re all worth a look. Please check them out–I know you’ll find something within them you enjoy. If not, you’re dead inside.
If Weather Was a Dick, It’d be …
Bindy Fry’s Itty Bitty Brain Basket
I’ll probably add more over the next few days. Until then, please read them. Hell, even subscribe to them. They’re worth it. Trust me!
So now I’m waiting patiently for a post about a day in the life of a porn editor…
I’ve nominated you too! Love your blog. Keep ranting!

Congrats!
thanks julia. i’ve posted my first public piece. you helped me do this so thanks! now i have to do a post similar to this one
Ur right but they will say I cry wolf. Fuck em
Meh..who cares what they think? They’re tools because they don’t understand that it’s your blog and you can say whatever you like! They can alwaaaays start their own, no one’s stopping them.
I think you should go public again. By turning your blog private, you’re giving the haters the power, if that makes any sense. If you don’t like what they have to say, you can always delete their comments–it’s your blog!
Show them how classy and awesome you are by showing you’re not intimidated by their comments! You’re an awesome yogini! Show ’em so!
Did u c all the mean shit ? People were dissin’ on me all over other blogs as well as my own. Thinking Of going public again just for spite. What u think?
thanks. too bad i’m private now because i’ve caused too much “trouble” with my opinions.
what????? I love your opinions! those who don’t like them DON’T HAVE TO READ THEM!! it’s a free fucking country!
keep on keepin’ on, dear. you rock!
Congrats Ms. McCrabass. I think I hear the orchestra playing….
Congratulations! I’m a fan of your blog, too. I love your wit, snarky outlook and on several occasions, what you’ve written has not only made me laugh out loud, but I’ve shared your posts with my posse. Keep entertaining me/us!
