Me: Here
It is finished.
Thanks to all who entered the Peg-o-Clio Advertising Award contest. I am overwhelmed at the talent all y’all have – we’re talking advertising skills capable of selling ice to the Eskimos. (I hope that isn’t offensive. How about selling frozen water to the indigenous northern peoples?)
A special group of distinguished judges is being empaneled to pick the top 5 entrants. (my sisters Tar and Mary Kay are road-tripping over for the weekend). We’ll carefully weigh how well each contestant identified their target demographic. (we’ll sit around my new woman-cave, reading them out loud and giggling.) Then we’ll deliberate and vote by secret ballot. (adult beverages may be consumed. And by “may” I mean “sure as sh*t.)
I’ll post the finalists next week for your vote.
Me: Over There
My pal Katy at K8did is putting the “fry” in Friday with the latest sizzling entries in her writing competition on the Seven Deadly Sins. The current topic is “Lust” and Yours Truly’s entrant is posted today.
I know, I know, you’re thinking “What the heck does she know about such things?” I Googled it before I started writing.
Competition is stiff (giggle) so my hopes may be dashed. In any event, there’s still time to enter. Get your creative juices flowing and go over to Katy’s blog and enter. Or just go over there, read and get your juices flowing. Nobody will judge you. Except Katy.
Me: Hoping To Be Over There
What’s the most embarrassing thing that ever happened to you as a child or young adult? Bloggess-to-the-stars Darla at She’s A Maineiac wants to know. Don’t worry – she won’t tell a soul. Unless you win, then EVERYbody gonna know about that shiz.
Go on over and bare your pain for a chance to win fabulous prizes. Don’t be discouraged by the fact that my entry is so totally humiliating nobody else has a snowball’s chance in H-E-double-hockey-sticks of winning this contest.
Me: Over and Out
Apologies if I missed anybody’s contest. Go visit anybody you see lurking around this here blog, because my lurkers have twice the talent of your average bloggers. Hell yeah!
Have a great weekend, y’all!
Thank you kindly for the contest plug. I think you summed up the fatal flaw in my contest. No one wants to spill embarrassing things out in public. I guess I just assumed because I have no shame, no one else does?

No, that’s a pretty safe assumption. Most bloggers are attention whores, as somebody so famously said. Not me, but Amy at Fix It or Deal. I wish it was (were?) me who first said that.

Peg – O – for the record, your lust entry kicked ass, then it spanked ass, and I think it may have gently caressed ass before it was all over. If I enter one more contest, I’ll be expecting Ed McMahon to rise from the grave and appear at my front door with an over-sized check and a
couple of spokesmodels.
Enjoy your sisterly drinking, sounds like a damn good time.

Well, thanks, but I just appreciate any crumbs that fall from your Deadly Sins victory table, you serial-winner, you.

Don’t be bitter – it won’t reflect well on you when you win the hard-fought lust category.
