Hey, y'all.
We just got back from a family vacation, and as usual, I need a vacation. (I am now in the running for Most Boring Cliche, and if Blogher ever creates a category for that don't even bother to enter. I've already won using the principles taught to me by gurus of The Secret).
Anyway just wanted to tell you that when Blogher launched a campaign for Voices Of the Year I modestly nominated 25 of my entries, tired of being an obscure, poor, misunderstood genius. They actually encouraged people to nominate other people (as IF) but you were allowed to nominate yourself. ! As I always say, if *I* don't brag incessantly about the blazing talent that lies within my pasty white skin, who will? P.S. Nobody.
Back soon with post about our vacation which consisted of a trip to a beach with 1 (one) sane adult, 1 (one) raving egomaniac, 2 (two) dogs, 2 (two) frogs, a partridge in a pear tree (one) and last, but not least, 2 (two) children.
The kids stayed busy gobbling Dunkin' Donuts, begging to us take them somewhere and spend money on them, setting up a surveillance camera to see if some local neighborhood boys came to call on them if we were out (not kidding).
During brief periods when the adults fainted from exhaustion, the kids amused themselves by posting updates on Facebook complaining that they were bored.
I attempted to think of creative ways to address their boredom, but "read a book" "clean the house" "walk the dogs" or "listen to the accounts of childhood beach trips when we had to walk to beach uphill both ways in a snowstorm" were all, I confess, dismal failures.
anyway.....
I am proud to announce that I am now an obscure, poor misundersood genuis and a Runner Up for Blogher '10 Voice of The Year, Humor category.
And, I'm also thrilled that a photo collage I sent in was picked to be the cover of a new category called "Life Lessons" on Pictory Mag.
More later, but I have to hire an architect to widen the doors in the house so my head can fit through them.
