Thanks to everyone who entered the BlogHer Pity Party Do Over Contest. I really appreciate everyone spreading the word about the great Average Everyday Super Woman, and her husband’s unexpected job hunt for a marketing position. I really appreciate everyone helping out a fellow mom blogger.
The winner of the contest is Christy Nelson. She is a wonderful blogger as well. Her blog is Crafty Conservative, she is @sra_nelson at Twitter, and she is also the Type-A Mom trying to conceive editor. I hope the ticket gives her a chance to learn some great stuff about blogging, and do some networking and self-promotion.
Since I just got word that the southern dates of the Reach Out Tour are canceled, I just learned today from the wonderful ladies at BlogHer that Christy can actually choose between a Reach Out Tour ticket (valued at $100, and now being held next month in Boston and Washington, D.C.) or *get this!* free 2-day ticket to BlogHer 2009 (valued at up to $300!). How sweet is that?? And before you even ask, I harassed Elisa at BlogHer to find out where that might be held. She ain’t sharing. She ain’t even dropping hints.
Christy will also enjoy a free set of mini Moocards. They are so crazy, freaky cute. They were donated to the contest courtesy of Bitchy Betty, an amazing new social networking site where people are bitching for change. Check it out!
Thanks to everyone who entered. Even if you didn’t win, I really feel like we all should have that nauseating, sickeningly Splenda-sweet feeling in the pits of our stomachs for doing something good and selfless. That’s a prize!
