Thank you! We had fun. Of course, half the fun for me is entertaining readers. It wouldn’t be so much fun if they went, “Meh.”

w00t!!! Congratulations, Hajra and Jason!
Thank you, Brian – I had fun writing this, bantering in the comments (as usual), and finding creative ways to share it. And, as always, I’m beyond excited to claim more of your money!
Thank you a MILLION TIMES OVER to all who helped – sharing, voting, commenting, encouraging, enabling (yeah, yeah, yeah…) – I (we – none of us) could do it without our readers and friends.

Well, I’d like to think so – but it’s shaping up to be quite a hotly contested year end prize, isn’t it?
Confidence, but not OVERconfidence, is the key to winning – I don’t ever “count my chicks before they’re hatched”!

Wow! First Congratulations to Holly and Hajra for First and Second Place! Very very cool!
Second – a bog thanks to Brian for hosting the contest to begin with! I had a ton of fun writing the article (which I was unknowingly riffing off of Holly…. *ahem*)
And finally and most importantly? Thank you to everyone who visited the blog post! Who took the time to comment, share, and actually read the article!
I know I sound like a broken record here. But the exposure alone for entering the Guest Blog contests here at Blog Engage means your winning already! If your a new blogger? Work on getting your following up – network with the bloggers here and ENTER THIS CONTEST!

Thank you, Ehsan! I hope Hajra had as much fun writing her half as I did writing mine. And I really have to thank her – I gave her the choice of whether to play “good blogger” or “bad blogger,” and she let me have the little devil on my shoulder here – I think it was definitely the FUN half to write. And she’s such a good sport – I mean, she really is a sweetheart, but for putting up with my teasing and calling her “Little Miss Goody Two Shoes”.. I love competing with her, because we have fun no matter who wins (even if it’s NOT us!)
