Well ladies and gentlemen…the votes have been tallied…and I’m more than freakin’ ecstatic to report that The Mommyologist has been selected as one of the FIVE official nominees for Nickelodeon’s ParentsConnect Best Parenting Blog for 2010!
I was completely honored to have been among the 50 bloggers who were chosen as potential nominees…and I have to be honest…I about spit my coffee all over the computer screen when I found out that I’d actually made the final five! I even logged off the ParentsConnect website and then logged back on and refreshed my browser about 10 times before it finally sunk in that this wasn’t some sort of fluke.
And I still can’t believe it. All I can say is that this is way more exciting than when I got my invite card at Sorority Rush on Bid Day during my college days. I mean, it was pretty damn cool that the Kappa Kappa Gamma (KKG) chicks liked me, but it’s WAY more awesome that my blog friends think I’m worthy of this award. Because being part of the mommy blogger world is kind of like being in a sorority. Well, minus the drunk frat dudes and obligations to buy T-shirts for every damn event under the sun, that is.
Seriously folks…I just cannot thank you enough for voting for me and supporting me for this nomination. I never would’ve gotten it without each and every one of you. And I won’t go and get all mushy on you guys, because that’s really not my style, but I will say that ALL of you totally rock my world and bring happiness into my life each and every day.
And since you put up with me begging asking for votes to make it into the top five…certainly you won’t mind if I do the same thing for this final round!
Official voting started yesterday and will continue through August 31st. You can VOTE HERE or click the Parents Picks button on my right sidebar, and you can VOTE ONCE A DAY.
The winner will be announced on September 15th…and if it’s me?? Oh yeah, I’m totally making a vlog to celebrate. And yes, there will be ass-shaking involved. Hell, maybe I’ll even throw in an old KKG cheer just for shits and giggles.
