I am in the running for a round trip airfare paid ticket to Connecticut, to meet a friend I became acquainted with through blogging. She is a super fun person and is holding this contest. I entered a funny story titled "Grapejuice Floaties, Now Marry Me." The person whose story receives the most votes will win a trip to meet this generous lady, whom I'm hoping to meet. The voting ends tonight-midnight. I used to be ahead but there is a story coming up from behind out of nowhere, and it's a tight race now. I would so much appreciate your help. Her blog is www.becausemomsaidso.blogspot.com and the voting is on the sidebar on the right. "Grapejuice, Floaties" Just go there and cast a vote for me, please. Thanks so much-you're awesome! ♥♥susettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16091922437671047257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4292067611225626785.post-15614736627369894572009-03-22T14:04:00.000-06:002009-03-22T14:04:00.000-06:00Barbaloot...I have full confidence in you!!

My favorite of your latest posts is the 'campaign for obesity'. I agree with the Hugh Jackman = Jean Valjean idea, who do we need to talk to to make that happen? And I would love to be invited to cheer you on for your race. I think having adoring fans there at the point of the race when you want to give up would be helpful.

You should probably go eat a pan full of brownies right now just for thinking about running. Too much pressure....don't do it.<BR/><BR/>(ok, I really don't think this but I didn't want to repeat everyone else.

Hello! Ron did like 4 miles in 1 1/2 hours. Also keep in mind that they won $10,000 for going fast. What are you going to get? I personally think anyone is crazy to even attempt this. I jogged for about 100 yards yesterday and walked the rest of my mile. I'm hoping to get up to 1/2 mile in 30 mins so you're still a hero in my book.sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07279252740655336410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4292067611225626785.post-25446248685023657432009-03-18T16:21:00.000-06:002009-03-18T16:21:00.000-06:00You can DO it!
