Blog awards? And I thought I just did this for fun. And pain. And you.
January 26, 2008
After getting a kick in the gut, knife in the back, slap to the face yesterday (bitter much?), it was really nice to have someone point me to the fact that I am actually up for a few awards at the Bloggers Choice Awards.
Now, I was more than a little sad to not be in the ranks with Liz at Mom-101 because if I am with her, I have made it, baby. But, sadly, I am not. I tried to campaign to join her, but they top off the number of categories you can be nominated in. Bummer. Honestly, any award that Liz is up for is one I would be honored to be there with her. Though, this particular nomination she writes about is a ridiculous joke. However, you have to love her sense of humor about it. She was nominated for one she deserves, though. (So go. Vote for the one she deserves here.)
To be 100% honest, the best “awards” I get for this blog are the comments, the emails and the friendships. You readers rock.
I have to say after yesterday, it was nice to get a kind email from someone who reads this blog letting me know that there are friends I have met online who are good and kind and caring, unlike some I have met and trusted who put the B in Witch.
So if you feel inclined, go vote. If not, go vote for Mom 101 HERE. That is the nomination that is real.
This is the only time you will see me talk about it or write about. I feel compelled to, though, because someone took the time to nominate me. For that, I am thankful. Again, my readers rock.
** [Edited to explain this one.] This award will be presented to the blogger who demonstrates the best writing ability on his or her blog.
Does this mean best writing about parenting because best parenting part is SO not going to be ME!
(This one makes me feel like I am being voted off the island and am getting farewell tribute. All time? Ever? Uhhh, not so much.)
(And just no to this one.)
Now remember go love on Liz here.

January 26th, 2008 at 8:48 pmloved on you over there!
January 27th, 2008 at 8:40 amI love both you and Mom-101 just the same and as far as I’m concerned, you are in the same league(seems like I was just having this conversation with some children around here…). Voted for you both.
Yikes, what happened yesterday?!
January 27th, 2008 at 12:07 pmI’m definitely going over to vote! For you and Mom-101, too. (Why did that sentence just remind me of the Wizard of Oz?)
January 27th, 2008 at 8:21 pmCongrats. But what exactly is a Blogitzer? (although it does rhyme with Wolf Blitzer, which is sort of cool)
January 28th, 2008 at 7:29 amNeil: The Blogitizer is this: This award will be presented to the blogger who demonstrates the best writing ability on his or her blog.
But the fun we can have with rhymes makes it even more special.
