Yesterday the winners of the Canadian Weblog Awards for 2012 were announced. I had entered myself in the contest – don’t sneer, we all do it – under three categories: parenting/family blogs; new blogs; and humour blogs.
Unlike the scores of other awards floating around the blogosphere, these are juried awards. There were over 800 submissions. A panel of judges narrowed it down to a shortlist. I made it through to the shortlist of 5 blogs under Best New Weblog and Best Humour Blog categories.
Yesterday, after obsessively checking the award website over and over again, all day long, I saw my blog listed! I did a little dance. Second place for best humour blog!
Now that I’ve had time to let this news sink in a little, I’ve decided to claim the title of Second Funniest Blogger in Canada in 2012!
Aside from the fact that my son still insists that only one person can be a winner and everyone else is a loser… I still feel like a winner.
Holy honkers! Congratulations!
Thanks! I’m pretty jazzed!
Well Done and well deserved!
You make me laugh and I’m a tough crowd!
Thanks! One day I may have to do an open mike night so that I can actually witness people laughing at what I have to say.
That’s wonderful, congratulations!
Thanks!
an open Mike? just be sure he gives you a backstage pass first 🙂
Terrific! Congratulations – the pressure’s on now! 😉
I know, now there are all these expectations!
You ARE a winner!!! YAY! Congrats!
You’re good enough, smart enough, and, doggone it, people like you!!
Wow! Congratulations! Well deserved.
Excellent!
Woo hoo!!!! Well done
