Did I Hear You Correctly?

So there I was, merrily skipping along, minding my own business, when I came across a blog that had a little link that said something like "Hey, you! Vote for me so I can make a ton of money next year doing nothing more than writing my really stupid blog!" And I thought...what? I have a stupid blog. I'd like to get paid a ton of money to write it!

Now, I know all of you are out there saying "Get paid to write stupid stories about creepy things? How cool would that be?" And I'd have to say, way cool! And then you're probably wondering how much a person gets paid. And the answer to that would be...are you ready? Up to $80,000! Of course, winning involves none other than you...

Here's the deal. Other bloggers are signing up for this contest, too. I've read through the top ten vote getters so far, and each of them is after the money to do some silly thing like, oh, put their kids through college or end world hunger. At least one was brutally honest and said she just wanted to go shopping!

And though I'm certain they're very worthy individuals, you love me best, right? And why do you love me best? Because if even a quarter of that prize money shows up, I'll be flying one of YOU to come see me, HERE, at Carpenter Creek! I did hear your correclty, didn't I? That you wanted to come visit? That you wanted to sleep in the Little Loft of Horrors? Well, this is your chance, folks!

So please click on the link I've provided you with. Click it every day as though your very life depended on it! Not only that, please spam contact all of your friends and relatives. Ask them to vote at least once. For me, of course. Once for me. (Or twice would be better, but I'll accept just once from total strangers.) The more they vote for me, the more they're really voting for you!


So here's the link. Click it. Vote. Spam your friends and family. And thank you. Thank you very much!

I do look desperate, don't I?



PS...Darling would like to select the winner for yesterday's contest (seeing as how they were her boots and spurs!) I'll get it posted a bit later today, so be sure to check back and find out who won!

I voted!

If I get to come out there, I do NOT want to sleep in the loft of horrors. Just so you know.

I voted, as well! I do have to wonder, however, as to the banner on the right side of your blog. Is it supposed to say "Carpetener" instead of "Carpenter"?

Tracey said...

Nice catch there, CG! I fixed it.

Dix...no Loft of Horrors for you? Heh...me either.

Okay I voted! And umm signed up myself lol.

But ummm... no loft of horrors for me either, I'd rather sleep with the sheep.

Brooke said...

I voted! Hell, I'll take a vacation wherever I can get it. I'll even sleep in a scary loft.

Thank you for the votes, ladies! I'm now only 3078 votes behind the leader!

I'll continue to vote but if I come to visit you, do I have to sleep with those rotten owl eggs?
