Liebster Award # 2

I've once again been humbly awarded the Lobster award! This time the nomination came from Shawna over at The Modern Musings. If you like your girls a little weird, a lot of random, with a healthy dose of Disney trivia knowledge you should definitely check her out. 

So, the lobster rules go:

1. You must thank the person who nominated you. 
2. You must answer the questions the nominator asked of you. 
3. You must then nominate 11 other bloggers who have less than 200 followers and link them. 
4. You must create your own 11 questions for the nominees to answer.
5. You must notify all nominees via social media/email/blogs so they know you've done it. 

Here are Shawna's questions. 

• You are on a desert island and you can bring ONE book, what would it be and why?
• How to Build a Raft. 
• Same desert island, what celebrity would you want to be stuck with and why?
• I would love to be stuck with Robert Downey Jr. because I'm pretty sure he'd be able to get us off and/or he'd be the best person to keep spirits up.
• Why did you choose your blog's name?
• I actually changed my blog name from The Seven Year Bitch. I liked the SYB but it didn't really seem to fit me. I mean, I can be a bitch, but more than that I am always so indecisive and looking for new things. I'm always bored. So I just wrote a list of adjectives that describe me and Indecisively Restless fit together. 
• What is your favorite vacation ever? 
• I've been on quite a few vacations when I was younger. My parents have tons of pictures of me at Disneyworld, Vegas, New York, etc. But I kind of don't remember them all. I really like going to San Diego because it was my first big vacation with John. 
• Favorite movies as a kid?
• I loved and still love, Beauty and the Beast. I watched a lot of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, My Neighbor Totoro, Nemo's Adventures in Slumberland, and The Little Mermaid. 
• What is your dream job/career/life goal?
• I actually answered these on my Sunday Stealing! I would love to be a professional Netflix watcher, dessert taster, or book reader. 
• Who are your top 3 favorite bloggers? 
• I follow a lot of blogs with a lot of different niches. The ones I almost always click on though are Rock 'n Roll Bride, Junebugs and Georgia Peaches, & I Heart Organizing.
• Favorite place to splurge?
• I tend to buy a lot of my clothes online but we do have this new awesome pinup shop that I want to go and drop all my money.
• Name the top three things to see/do or eat in YOUR state. 
• Oh jeez. I'm from Texas. There are TONS of things to see, eat, or do. In San Antonio alone we have a Six Flags, a Sea World, a Splashtown (waterpark), a zoo, an aquarium, the Riverwalk, tons of malls and flea markets, and tons of delicious restaurants. 
• What do you do when you're not blogging? 
• I'm usually working, cleaning the house (ha), baking or cooking, watching Netflix, or reading. 

Now it's time for my questions!

1. What is your proudest moment?
2. What is your favorite blog post?
3. What is your favorite breakfast cereal?
4. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
5. What is your guilty pleasure TV show or movie?
6. What age would you like to relive? 
7. If you could meet any celebrity/famous person, living or dead, who would it be and why?
8. Name your favorite carb.
9. What is one of your pet peeves?
10. The most famous dessert maker on the planet has decided to make one in your name: what would it be called and what ingredients would it have?
11. What cause/charity/organization/foundation means a lot to you? 

And now my nominations: I don't really know how many followers people have...so if you want to be awarded just grab the button and answer the questions! And if you want to just answer the questions - then be my guest! 

Liebster Award

I've seen a few of these Lobster Awards going around on some of the blogs I read but I never though I'd get one myself.

But today is that day. Thankfully for me, Megan from Madly Maudlin Megan reads my blog and nominated me for the Liebster Award. 

For those that don't know, the award is given to promote and find new blogs with less than 200 followers. The award-giver then asks the award-receiver some questions and then you pass the award on to other bloggers, with your own set of questions. 

Here are the questions that Megan asked:

1.) Why did you create a blog?

I first started my blog because I'd always kept a hand-written journal when I was younger, but the transition to a newer technology drew me in. Here I could add pictures, doodles, links to other things in my brain. Of course, this blog is nothing like the hand-written journal I still keep but it does serve to help me with my creativity and writing.  

2.) What is a goal for your blog?

I would love for someone to send me pretty clothes, expensive electronics, or vacation vouchers because my blog is just that awesome. Unfortunately I don't dedicate the time to it that people who do get these perks do. So, my goal for now is just to get in touch with people from all over the world who may, or may not, have things in common with me. 

3.) How do you decide which blogs to follow? What is a topic that you love to read about on a blog?

I've been following a lot of vintage, pin-up, and retro blogs lately because I really want to start dressing the part. I love seeing where these people got their clothes or how they match them up together. I also like reading about DIYs that I can actually do or tasty recipes to try out. I follow them based on their content and the way their persona comes off. Like, for example I unfollowed someone on Tumblr because the way they talked made them sound like a stuck-up B. I don't want to listen to that. 

4.) What are 3 of your beauty essentials?

Red Lipstick. Always. Black eyeliner and um...blush I guess. 

5.) What are your top 3 places to shop?

I've actually become really good about not just buying clothes because they look cute on the rack. I've been buying stuff online. But I still like going to Ross and Target for home stuff and as always, IKEA. 

6.) What is your favorite album and why?

I don't really have a favorite album. But I love all things from Portugal. The Man, John Fullbright, and I love to go walking with Noah listening to the upbeat music of  The Hives. 

7.) What is an issue about which you are passionate?

I'm very big on feminism and right now I'm all up on that net neutrality issue. If you don't know what net neutrality is...go research! Then call up your local representatives and give them a piece of your mind!

8.) What is your go-to meal when you are in a rush?

CEREAL!

9.) Since all of my nominations are women, what does femininity mean to you?

What a tough question! To me, being feminine is about how you portray yourself to be - your confidence in yourself. It doesn't necessarily mean being soft or done up. It's about being okay in your own skin, with your own feelings, to say to everyone else - this is who I am. 

10.) Do you have a favorite memory of a person, place, experience?

When I went to school in Utah I didn't have a car so I had to walk everywhere. Well, I'd also never seen snow before then so sometimes I'd walk to the park in my rain boots. Even though it was cold and my legs were unsteady it was amazing because everything was covered in this perfect white blanket. And the smell, the smell was just amazing. It wasn't like rain and it wasn't like frozen frost either. It was just this cold, sweet, crisp smell that you could feel whenever you breathed in. It was amazing. 

11.) Who is your best friend and what makes your relationship strong?

John is definitely my best friend. Our relationship, both friendly and more-than-friendly, is strong because we actually like each other's company. We both have the same type of humor so even when things get tough we can find something to laugh at. And we help each other out. 

So now I'm supposed to nominate 11 other blogs/bloggers but I'm just going to do three because I don't think I have 11 people to nominate.
