Who Do You Love?
I am coming out of the closet, in my own small sense. I was nominated as one of Vancouver’s Top Mom Bloggers for 2011. A very nice nod of approval from VancouverMom.ca. If it’s the equivalent of a peck on the cheek, I’m presenting mine for a lipstick stained kiss.
Otherwise, I was content to keep this between them and me.
But upon further researching last year’s contest, I realized to my horror they show the results of the voting. Keeping this little secret to myself will be a big mistake when I register zero votes, and I look like the equivalent of the kid who gets picked last for Red Rover. Having been there and done that, I really don’t want to revisit my youth.
It’s down to the wire – voting closes tomorrow – so if you would be so kind as to click on this link and cast your vote, I would be forever indebted to you. In fact, I just might give you a Junior Mint the next time I see you.
As you can imagine, if you know me, this act of self-promotion leaves me squeamish and with sweaty palms. But saving myself from embarrassment ranks even higher on my list than asking for help.
It’s not about blogging domination, for which I clearly lack the killer gene. It’s about coming out of this contest with a marginal amount of composure, so that I don’t need to wear a bag over my MothersTonic face when running my errands around Vancouver.
Unlike our federal election, one vote really can make a difference – these are slim margins we’re talking about. Save me from becoming the blogging equivalent of Michael Ignatieff. And I did promise you a Junior Mint.
I’ve voted Dee, and happy to support you. Good luck! you can send that Jr mint via registered post…
Thanks El – Henry St. goes a long way!
Voted! Don’t worry about sending me that Junior Mint (even though I really like them!)…Canada Post would probably charge you $12 to send it to New Brunswick!
Congratulations!
Wendy
So long as you can obtain them in NB… their goodness is not to be missed!
Off to vote right now! I’ll pass on the Junior Mint. But if you have a spare Mild Dud…
But Junior Mints are so refreshingly sweet…
