I could write something flippant or stupid, honest or lies, the best thing I’ve ever written, but nothing will come anywhere near this.

The last time I nominated a Perfect Post Award was back in June and I had constant internet. Now I hve it back and the post I have nominated this time has reminded me why I love the internet and the blogosphere particularly.

Miss Britt is one of those people I probably would have followed round after at High School, or at the very least wanted to be friends with. A little irreverent, extremely funny, extremely fun, sincere and articulate. Genius.

The post I have nominated is A Glass House With A View which made me delurk and comment. Amongst other things it discusses us women and how we treat other and it made me think about how the double standard thing applies. I really sat back and looked at what I was doing in my real life and in my blogging life. It made me think about why, although I was reading this fantastic blog and having things to say n my head I was terrified of being rejected and told to, in no uncertain terms, ‘go away’. Was I because of my usual rejection issues or was it because of my past experience with other women and the way we generally put each other through the crapper as much as possible? Either way, I thought enough is enough and threw up a comment.

I don’t know how the rest of you feel but sometimes when you are a reading a blog and you realise that what you have just read has made you change the way you think about yourself, it really makes you realise how powerful this medium is (and, please god, not how stupid that sentence was) and how lucky we all are to be able to see into people’s heads this way.

Anyway, just thought I’d mention it.

The Perfect Post Awards as always are brought to us by the gorgeous and fantastic Kimberly and Lindsay as well as the letters ‘P’ and ‘G’ and the number 12
