I have been Humbled

June 8th, 2007

I was just browsing around when I came across Michele Neylon :: Pensieri which is a blog I visit from time to time.

He’s a bit of a techie, but he says he likes my blog, so I’d better say I like his.

He has just posted an article about The Blogger’s Choice Awards and is bragging about how he has been nominated.

So I went along to the awards site and there are zillions of sites nominated. “At last” I thinks to myself, “at least I’ll stand out from the crowd and be a non-nomination”. But I was wrong.

I have been nominated under three categories!! So somebody out there loves me. thank you Humblehousewife.

My site was nominated for Best Blog of All Time!My site was nominated for Best Humor Blog!My site was nominated for Best Political Blog!

She has nominated me for “Best Blog Of All Time” which is extremely flattering but a little ambitious?

She has also nominated me for “Best Political Blog” which is strange, as I don’t see myself [or my blog] as a political animal. In fact the only political animals I know are George W, Bertie and Harney. [Lets see who can come up with the best animal suggestion for them!!]

And she has nominated me for Best Humor Blog. For once I will overlook the misspelling [it should be 'humour', you fools]. I am extremely flattered, and humbled

But that won’t stop me canvassing for votes. I’ll even climb a lamppost if necessary, and get into a fight with any Green Party member who comes my way. [On second thoughts, that wasn't a very good tactic considering the outcome.]

So click on my wee icons and cast your votes. You have to register, but that is a small price to pay. Well, actually, it’s free. Let me see how many friends I have. Let me see how you really think of me.

On second thoughts, just vote.

    I’m for the underdog (and I still think you’re fishing for complements!) votes have been cast . . .I like the idea of posting on an award winning blog. It’s an ego thing, fame by association!
