I have entered a contest or two during my short tenure as a blogger - Scribbit’s Write-Away Contest, The “This Blog Blows My Dress Up” Contest at This Ecclectic Life, Owlhaven’s I Am From Contest - and I haven’t won any of them. I had decided that I would not be entering any more contests in which awards are chosen based on skill and/or talent, rather, I would only enter contests that were determined by chance. This way, I could protect my fragile ego and continue believing that I’m maybe, kinda, sorta good at this. Just a teeny tiny bit and not really much at all, but maybe a little good.

Then my BBF Karly gave me this:

June 07 ROFL award

It was for this post.

If you aren’t in the know, the ROFL awards are hosted by Mrs. Chicky and Metro Mama and are very big and important and special. And now I have one.

I felt so inspired that I sang The Rainbow Connection and composed an entry for The “Say It In 7″ Contest over at The World According To Suz. Here it is:

“She left me.”

“Why?”

“Damn third nipple.”

Since Suz allows two entries and one of the tiny men that works in my brain is telling me that two entries are better than one, here’s my other entry, with just a little foreshadowing:

Contest entered. Judges wowed. The prize: mine!

The contest ends tonight at 11:59 p.m. MT, so my fellow procrasinators, there is still a little time. If you start working now, you just might squeak it in before the deadline.

If reading is your strong suit, you may want to click over to see my pal Mommy The Maid. She has a very cool Bingo game going each week that you can win just by reading!

*The post title is actually a quote from the movie Kill The Moonlight. It can also be heard in the song Loser by Beck.

My highschool sweetheart kinda had three nipples. He accidently cut one in half with a butterfly knife and it kind of grew into two.

Totally serious.

But that wasn’t the reason we broke up…

Congrats! You deserve it for that post, but I’m glad I read it after dinner.

I just wanted to let you know that I did vote for you. However, I was out numbered. Your entries were really good! Keep trying!
