You should try to win! And I should get a clue!

October 2, 2008

I totally screwed up the giveaway thing, dangit! OOPS.

I had a little thing about a giveaway in the sidebar. I couldn’t figure out why there were no more entries since the first time I posted about it. Then I clicked on my sidebar giveaway thingy.

And it went to nowhere. It said ERROR blah blah blah. SUPER.

So I said to myself “OH! That’s why my sitemeter shows all these people clicking on that and yet, no one is then commenting on that post who hadn’t already….oh….I get it now….it’s because when they tried to click on the giveaway thing they were told ERROR blah blah blah.

So I’m sorry to those of you who tried to figure it out and hit an immediate dead end! I should have clicked on that like maybe two weeks ago or so. OOPS.

So this is what I’m going to do.

Anyone who comments on this post. This here one today, is also entered. I’ll combine the comments from the original post with the comments from this post. Right here, this one. This one that you’re reading. (If you already commented on the first giveaway post, you can skip commenting here. You cheater, what were you thinking?)

Oh! What would you win? I forgot to tell you that part (in case you don’t know) You can go look at the other post for details, but in short, there will be two winners. One wins Sara Groves’ Christmas CD and one wins one of two movies, Sweetland or Spitfire Grill (winner’s choice).

The deadline will be 9pm on October 3rd (which happens to be tomorrow, Friday so hurry up). Why 9pm? Because I have to go to bed after doing the drawing and I’ll be so excited I won’t be able to sleep! Or something.

Then I’ll post the winners on Saturday, October 4th. The BIG one year Birthday of the EO.

Whew. I can’t believe I did this. No wait. I can. I can totally believe it. OOPS.

P.S. I’ll just write down all the names and draw from a hat. Or maybe a bowl. Or a shoe. Something like that. Because I don’t know how to do that random picker chooser fancy internet thingy.

P.P.S. I really do love giving stuff away…and I really hope this made sense.

I entered before, but I’m going to pretend I didn’t so I can get a second entry.

Except…

Oh. Wait.

Darn.

These give a-ways are so great! I just have to do one myself. It’s so fun to see everyone get so excited. I better think of something good.

Well, count me in!!!!!!

And I vote for a shoe.

Or maybe a slipper. Yeah, a slipper’d be great.

It totally made sense. And your son is hilarious. Loved the play-doh. :)

PS…come enter my giveaway, too! :)

I think I commented before, but just in case…

Yeah, I totally want that Sarah Groves CD AND one of those favorite movies!

LOVE that you thought of something so cool and such a great way to celebrate your big day!

OOOH! OOOH! (**waving hand frantically**) Pick me! Pick ME! I adore Christmas music. In fact, I’ve already put one in the cd player (fine, in the car because my husband says my love o’ Christmas music is a sickness this early in the year) so I would LOVE to win Sara Groves’ cd.

Happy Blogoversarry! Blessings, Whitney

Talk to me Goose…cute. I would be one of the ones you don’t know who the heck I am, but I just was being noisy over at the comments at Butterville, which I am also new to this week, too.

Anyway, I’d love to enter!

Okay, I haven’t read the original post, I’ll get to that in a minute. But I must say I loved this post, your brain sounds just like mine. Hilarious. Good luck, I hope you get a lot of entries. Oh and I hope I win too.
Cheers.
