Did anyone notice that big red button on the right hand side of the screen that says, “I’m a Nominee!!”?  No???  Yeah, guess I should have blogged about it.  I announced it on facebook.  Then voting started yesterday and again, I announced it on Facebook.  Um……..DUH MrsTDJ!!!   I gave myself a wicked eye roll for not announcing ON THE BLOG that THE BLOG had been nominated for a BLOG award.   Feel free to laugh.  I did.

Thank you to whom ever nominated my blog for a Black Weblog Award in the category of “Best Writing in a Blog”.  Wow.  Best Writing in a Blog?  Geez.  So, the ballots went live yesterday and I’m on it.  Yippee!!!  I’m super excited and super honest – I’d love to win!  This would be something that would really make ya girl smile.  I write for me, but I do hit the publish button.  I write because I need to get things out and I think that my voice should be heard.  A great writing instructor shared a quotation with me over the summer that resonated so deeply.  “The job of the writer is to comfort the afflicted, and afflict the comfortable.”  Ah ha!  I believe that I’m working toward fulfilling my purpose.

I try not to ask you guys for too much, but I’m gonna surely ask for this.  I need your help to win this thing.  I need you to vote for me, once every 24 hours, between now and September 26 so that I can make the 2nd round of voting.  Then I’ll bug you again for your votes so that I can win the whole damn thing.  My category, Best Writing in a Blog, is allllllllllll the way at the bottom.  It’s actually the very last category.  Keep scrolling and you’ll find it.  Vote because I asked.  Vote because you can.  Vote because you like my writing.  Vote because you’re at the computer and it doesn’t take long.  Vote because you think I need a solo trip to Houston.   And if you are so inclined, you can forward this here to post to everyone you’ve ever met so they can vote too.  ***Too much????***
