Schmooze Award - just for me!

Schmoozing as defined by Dictionary.com is the ability “to converse casually, especially in order to gain an advantage or make a social connection.” When it comes to blogging, schmoozing is your ticket to making new friends, getting yourself noticed and building a reputation. Some bloggers are gifted with the ability to effectively schmooze and others not so much.

I saw this graphic and definition on a random blog I came across and thought it was cool. Since schmooze is one of my favorite words, and something I'm good at, I decided to give myself this award.

Just because I can. And it feels great!

"On behalf of myself, I humbly accept this award...."

"I just wanna thank..." {pulls out 19 sheets of folded paper, written on both sides, from jacket pocket as audience begins to groan [SFX: canned groaning noises] at the prospect of a long acceptance speech.}

Feel free to award this to yourself as well, if you think you deserve it.
