Happy Valentine’s Day from Hank Williams, Conway Twitty and Willie Nelson. And me.

Read: Nashville Scene County Music Critics poll

I was so jazzed to be included in last year’s annual Nashville Scene Country Music Critics poll, and equally so this year. It’s pretty cool to be lumped into a group that includes writers at Billboard, All Things Considered, American Songwriter, The Wall Street Journal and People. (Yes, I just included People magazine in with that list. Carrie Underwood’s leg workout is NEWS, people.)

You can see my two comments below, and check out:

I found this chair at a Goodwill in Myrtle Beach, S.C. close to three years ago. It was low on price and high on potential, but I didn’t get around to doing anything about it ’til just the other day. Black paint, a fieldtrip to the upholsterer for the cushion and a leopard bolster pillow, and all is well.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays, y’all. The Great Gift Hunt of 2011 began and ended on Sunday, a testament to how busy things have been around here. But things have quickly come together before our mountain and Texas adventures begin this weekend and bleed into the new year.

May your holiday be as colorful as these free printable gift tags I found on (where else?) Pinterest.
