Most authors, of all types, worth their salt, have awards, distinctions, honorary doctorates, and honors... except me. I have but one. In my Bio I have only one mention: Universidad de Extremadura, in 1996, granted a Premio Extraordinario de Lexicografía, to my A Dictionary of Proverbs, English-Spanish (Ediciones del Serbal.) This is it, and I never even sent them the dictionary! I am, thankful to the Universidad de Extremadura, of course. This lack of commendations must be a flaw in my scholarly career and makes me wonder. I do not feel bad about it, but it makes me wonder.
