Show Me Your Blog Spot!

So, you know those blogging chain letters/memes/whatever they're called that usually look like this? Well, today I want to start one. Here it is:

Show Us Your Blog Spot!

The rules:


1. Once you are tagged, post a picture of where you blog. This might mean a picture of your cozy bed, or your office at work (you naughty employee, you!), or a boring ol' desk like me. Feel free to be creative, but be honest--if your desk is usually covered in Ritz crackers and love letters to Rahm Emanuel, then show us!


2. Feel free to tell us a little about your space, or explain certain items
in more detail. Or not.

3. Link back to this post.


4. Tag five other bloggers to show their blog spots.


5. If you are tagged and do not participate, you will become allergic to cabbage.


Here are a few other detail shots of my bloggin' spot:


Inspirational quote, kitten, peace sign.

My idol, Rachel Maddow, and something she said once.

Random friends, funnies, and pretty things.

My true inspiration--a signed photo of Sinbad hung on my window.

I'll start things off with a heaping handful of tags: Ambika from (Into) the Fray, Chelsea from Frolic, Sal from Already Pretty, D'Rae from Slices of Life, Mr. Wong from The Sunday Best, Rhiannon from Liebemarlene Vintage, Christine from Futurelint, Joanna from A Cup of Jo, Pretty Face, Punky, Lopi from Fashion Architect, and Princess Poochie from Shoe Daydreams. Also, anyone else who'd like to show their space and spread the word, consider yourself tagged!

Let's get this going--Don't be shy! Show us your blog spot!

p.s. Speaking of going, I'm going to be out for the next week or so thanks to a huge deadline followed by a much-needed Hawaiian vacation. But come next Tuesday, I'll be back, burnt, and blogging, baby!

I love this idea! Someday, the internet historians will refer to it as the "Winona tag".

I hope someone tags me. Yeah, very subtle hint...

Anonymous said...

Hahaha. OK, lady you asked for it. I'll show you my den of sin ... as soon as I can.

Good luck with the deadline and have a FANTASTIC time in Hawaii!

I have totally fallen for Rachel Maddow in the past couple of months due to my boyfriend's dedication to Olberman. I want her glasses.

Catie said...

Rachel Maddow truly is inspirational. Have fun in Hawaii!

Bekah said...

I'm also quite jealous of that badass sinbad picture

I've always wanted someone to start something like this. I always wonder where the bloggers I read daily are doing their creative work. Thanks for sharing!

Whit said...

I'm going to consider myself tagged. Fun!

Love the NG cover. Have a great time in Hawaii. Will you be stalking the cast of Lost while you're there? It's what I would do.

I'm working on it, Winona! And oh! You have our cover shot on your wall! That is awesome.

Have a great vacation, and remember, the photo booth yelled at you in German, not Dutch.

i actually used to go to school with sinbad's daughter in elementary/junior high and was in study hall with her. i saw him a few times walking around the campus after school to pick up his daughter. i was always too shy to talk to him, but he seemed very nice...he would give high fives to the kids who came up to him.

love your blog and the posters on your wall are great. it's motivated me to spruce up my room a bit. have fun in hawaii!

laura said...

Awesome tag. Love the images and quotes :)

TheMinx said...

I love this. I was just tagged and I can't wait to do it. And rachel maddow = god :)

Kori said...

Love this idea and pretty much all the inspiration you've posted. Also, that picture of the "girls love curls" girl is definitely saved on my computer somewhere. I have a vague recollection of using it to test new photo editing software maybe 5 years ago because I liked the pic and couldn't bear to throw it away. Ha.

TheSundayBest said...

The previous comment has to be spam. But I still want to know what it says.

It's Tuesday...of the next next week. Come back.

Alecca Rox said...

caroline duke said...

In the sport's culture now, success is measured with shoe commercials and video game covers. Beautiful and fashionable young people theme of the times! And I like sports shoes! Casual Wear!
