an award

Ooph has been nominated for an AWARD. (Because someone has lost their mind.)

I found out about the nomination right after I arrived home from the grocery store at one o’clock in the afternoon still wearing my pajama top under my standard issue grey sweatshirt, unzipped, with no bra and my vodka-infused iced tea came flying right out of my nose. Best Lifestyle? Maybe if they are comparing it to cockroaches.

Then I read the actual criteria:

You might be a mom blogger, bargain hunter, hobbyist, or lifestyle journalist. You’ve chosen new media to express yourself and we love you for it. Our community is enlightened with what you publish, and everyone enjoys your contribution.

Mom blogger? Check.

Bargain hunter? I AM always looking for a good sale on wine. Check.

Hobbyist? Duh. Wine drinking. Check.

Lifestyle journalist? I journal the lifestyle of a mother beaten down by teenagers. So. Check.

Also. I am enlightening our community? HOLY CRAP. There goes the community.

I truly have no idea why in the hell someone nominated me, but DUDE you are the BOMB. And. Probably drunk. But. Thank you soooo much whoever you are. Send me a note. I’ll send you some money or something.

For the rest of you reading that didn’t vote for me. Don’t you feel a little foolish now that you see how qualified I am? It’s not too late. You could still vote for me. GO. NOW. HURRY your ass up.

Just find Ooph. Click the arrow. It turns green and BAM you have nominated a woman who wears her pajamas to the grocery store at one o’clock in the afternoon. Is anyone more qualified for Best Lifestyle I ask you?

Vote Here. Please.

You go girl. But not too far or too fast because I don't want you to beat me. Well, if someone had to beat me it could be you or Deb, but that's it. And even then I would be pissed. Game on!

Of course I votedfor you-at least you didn't have a heater hanging from your mouth, with no bra, and drinking your vodka in your pj's!

Well of course I voted for you! I also voted for a few other people and think I might have canceled out all of my votes by doing so. Please don't tell Mama Mary! I am working her for a pedicure...

Still working on the slogan. Like Marymac's take on vodka and pj's--might be able to weave that in with the living in the locker thing. Can we revise history a bit and say that you were stuffed in the locker? By Mama Mary and RockOnMommies?! Might help...

I (hic) think I voted for you? I noticed (hic) that they spelled your name with ph in it. When I went to but your (hic) name on the birth certificate your Mom had a fit when I spelled it with a ph. She said no daughter of hers was having a ph and her name. So (hic) there you go.Love You Stef, Your (hic) Dad. Hope you win whatever award it is!!!
