People Get Ready.....There's Some Sparkles Comin' x


Blogbods of Absolute Deliciousness! It is I...Leclerc! Just updating your asses (not in the donkey sense, you understand) as to the status of my Beautiful, Bouncing Blog Baby and her cheeky wee revamp. Yeaaahhh Boiiii...it's on. Things are being tweaked and fiddled with and soon, my darling Blogpots.......soon we will be 'Doin' It and Doin' It and Doin' It Well' all over the place, believe!
So, I have had another ramble around the Blogging Mountain and have got another mighty fine thing-a-ling-a-ding-dong for you to read, share and interact with. And it goes a little something like this:

www.greatlaketaupo.com

Dunno quite what the old Mountain/Road Biking boxydoodle is all about. I think you funky monkeys all know by now that, well I just wouldn't would I? It is a compelling read, so tuck in y'all.
Soundtrack: Aaah, yes an absolute feckin treat today Peeperoos. The Rev Al Green (beyond fabulous...dodgy hanky though....) Have been waiting a long, long time for this little jewel to appear. So here it is. Get ready people....The Sparkle Train is about to arrive at Platform 76 (see what I did there?) Oh arse...it's Panhandle on the tannoy....... ;-) Now we out....missing you already....... x

A Change is Gonna Come...x



Greetings Blogbuckets! Just a quickie to empty my mind regarding the impending metamorphosis of 76 Sparkles....and blatantly get a track from my beloved Otis in too...........
I am keen to get up and running with this new direction Miss Sparkles (for it is her desire) wishes to take as she ventures out into a brave new world to kick some Blogging arse (in heels and a tiara, naturally)
The vision is thus: 76 Sparkles equates to two very important messages or themes that are crucial in my world. These being (a) a message of absolute positivity, motivation and forward thinking. Dictionary definition: to effervesce, as wine, to be brilliant, lively, or vivacious. We like that don't we? 
Just as importantly though is the message of (b) Sparkles = Sparklies = Parkinson's. Like I've said numerous times to you, this ticket of mine on this headfuck ride is free membership, lifelong entry so I'd best make it work for me somehow and, such is my nature...whilst I'm at it I'd like to make it useful to someone else in the process.
I am a writer, that much I have learned during this process so far. This is how I get my version of Po the Panda's Inner Peace (this and the joy of music and dancing, of course...) so here I am at my Crossroads (Bone Thugs n Harmony....just feck off!!! It's not about you!!!!!) and my vision is looking good. All I need is five more feckin hours in my day to achieve it! Stick with me Blogbunnies....hopefully you'll like the changes...it's been a long time comin....but I know a change is gonna come. Believe.
Soundtrack: Mr Honey Himself......Go on now Otis man, that first note you kill it right there....
Back soon beautiful people...Sparkle Hard. xxxx

Pass the (Amazingly Informative Blog) on the Left-Hand Side....x


Woohoo Blogsters.....Here's my cool as new blog post for the Funkydoodles at Destination Great Lake Taupo: Check it out, love it completely, shamelessly share it, pass it on to everyone you know (and even those you don't) It would be rather nice if you could get old Ellen to notice it....I'd quite like to meet her and be on her show, hahahahaha!
Since we're sharing and caring I thought it only apt for the Soundtrack to be: those fellas from Musical Youth Pass the Dutchie and while yer at it Mary...go on and pass on the blog post as well. xxx

2012.....Bugger Off You Pesky Mayans With Your Doom and Gloom. We'll Have a Lovely Starry Eyed Surprise Kinda Year Instead Thankyou Ta! xx


Happy New Year Blogheads!!!! Here I am...fashionably late as usual....Wherever you are and whatever you've been doing, I hereby declare that 2012 is going to be A Whopper, A Funfest, A Ring-Ding-Dong.....Ring-A-Ding-Ding-Ding-Dong Feast of Delectation and Unabashed Awesomeness. There, I have put in my request for you guys, so obviously a completely magnificent year will now be yours to savour and enjoy. Yey, that's that done. Phew....
Now for the apology bit.....I am officially, what I like to call 'A Slack Alice.' I have not been hopping on the Blog Train anywhere near as often as I would've liked. Firstly, well there's been the whole "Happy Birthday Jesus" thing going on, and then my quest for Literary stardom has been on my mind. Jaysus, Blogpals....it's been nothing short of all go here at The Towers.
I have to say my Blogtastic Followers of Fabulousness, I am ready to shake the bag up in a major way in so far as 76 Sparkles is concerned and I would be eternally grateful (in a completely loving you for ever and ever and ever Amen sort of fashion) for any input you guys can give me. More of this later.......
Initially, this little Blog Baby of mine was meant to be nothing more than an outlet for the crazy meanderings of my bewildered mind. It soon popped on it's positivity pants and took on the role of being something motivational and uplifting to anyone reading it. Then came the post that dealt with THE OUTING......THE COMING OUT OF THE CLOSET EPISODE. AKA THE ADMISSION OF WIBBLY, STIFFTASTIC NEURODRAMA.
Like I've said before, that post was massive for me, and very powerful because it meant there was no going back...ever. It freaked me out no end for a while but ultimately, I'm so glad I did it. Once that bad boy of an episode was done and dusted, I guess I was at a crossroads of sorts (No..not you this time either Bone, Thugs n Harmony...go on now make a decision already and just feckin choose a direction?!?) trying to figure out what my beloved 76 Sparkles was to be.
It still amazes me that you delicious Blogbuckets check in. Currently, as I write this, my 'Man Who Can' in Statsville says we're on: Drumroll please........2,697 views!!!!! Holy Feck-a-Ding-Dang-Doo that fully rocks and makes me unbelievably happy right up to the tippy top of my head.
So......I might be an intermittent Blogdropper for a bit as I'm looking to overhaul this beautiful, sparkly friend of mine by making her spread her glittery gorgeousness even further, whilst also figuring out where I want to take her next. If I'm going to have this Sparkly ticket on the Bus to Wibblyville (and really, I've pretty much got my head around that fact) then I'm absolutely passionate and adamant that it has got to be here both in my world and that of my Perkylicious Posse of Peculiar and Precious Peeps, for some positive and constructive outcome.
That means that this week, I will be mostly having a big think......dangerous huh? I have a rough idea about what I want 76 Sparkles to look and sound like, what it is exactly that my little darling is going to offer and how it can be a significant influence to any Sparklepop who reads it.
For those of you who have just checked in recently and are new to my crazy bubble, please come and call for me again...I'll be at the usual address and will be all revved up and ready to play. To those cupcakes of utter loveliness, who have been with me from the start......well, it's gonna get bigger, bolder, brighter and better and will burst out at you like a firework on speed mother funksters. Thanks for sharing the ride so far, but we ain't done yet!!!...believe!
To everyone, I give you......The Soundtrack. An absolutely feckin banging tune by Paul Oakenfold. Have chosen one with the lyrics because they resonate fully with where my head's at. C'mon....let's dance all night to this DJ y'all! xx
