A "real post" to follow sometime later on today (and by "later on" I mean "as soon as I can bribe The Girl into taking a nap already!")

I just won a prize from Blingo!

It wasn't the $2,500 I was hoping to win, (or the $5,000 that Zoot won!) it was a flippin' movie ticket, but still! A free movie ticket! Awesome.

I think that you should Click Here to sign up for Blingo too because everytime you win a prize, I win one too.

And who doesn't like to win prizes?

Now, get to searching. Ha.

I won a movie ticket from Blingo last week! It was after months and months of never winning anything, so I was happy just to have that.

Lucky you. I've been signed up for ages and haven't won anything yet.

I am usually pretty "lurky" around here, but I signed up under you so hopefully we will win big for both of our sakes! : )

Noooo!

I can't sign up, cause I'm a beer-drinking, maple-syrup loving, non-gun-toting Canadian and Blingo doesn't like my type.
:(

Congrats on the movie tickets though. I see they're for Fandango. Did they remake that movie? It's one of my favs.

I won a movie ticket the other day, too! I had been using Blingo for months and months and was about to give up on it. Winning stuff is so much fun.

Winning is so much fun - and Bossy speaks from experience because Bossy can count the amount of times she's won anything on one eyelash. An eyelash pulled from her own eye in grief for all her losses.

I lurk a lot. And I LOVE your honesty and your food issues, body image issues, weight issues. Because I have them, too. So I think you should watch this video. It made me feel better. At least for a little while. Watch it. Hugs!

Y, I'm sick. I've been trying for months and months.

Enjoy the movie!

Dude. I'm just thrilled someone else bribes their daughter to take a nap!

It wouldn't have me, I am a lowly Englandian and so therefore not welcome in blingoland, poor sad me.

Posted by: Helen at March 21, 2007 08:04 PM

Wow! I just saw the video on YouTube that Jennifer recommended...Y, you simply MUST look at it! It was so awesome and inspiring. I was looking at her and thinking wow she looks exactly like me (almost the exact same weight too)...and yet I was thinking how beautiful and cool she was...which I probably wouldn't think about myself...wow...I'm blown away...it really opened my eyes...it's all about attitude baby!! :)

Delurking here.... So sad, yet another canadian that is not welcome to join in all the fun. *tear*

:(


But I must say, I think you're great! : ) And I totally agree with Michelle on the video link Jennifer left! Simply amazing!

Congrats! I won an itune gift certificate a couple of months ago but nothing since. Would love to win one of those big prizes!

Posted by: Allison at March 22, 2007 07:49 AM

So I actually need to SEARCH with BLINGO not just sign up....whoops!

Posted by: teachbroeck at March 22, 2007 09:47 AM

About Y
My name is Y, but you can call me "Jesse's girl." I am an Aerobic Dancer and have mastered many moves, but the one I am the most proud of is "The Monkey." I have three kids. ALL FROM THE SAME DAD (Because, did you know someone actually asked me that question?) A 15 year old son, a 11 year old son and a 4 year old daughter who was not planned but who is loved more than words could ever express. I am addicted to Starbucks, reality TV and to getting really good deals through coupons and "club member" savings (Please, respect The Costco Card.) I am extremely competive and if you don't believe me, just ask my husband about the time I sold him out to win a game of Taboo. If you're waiting for the part where I speak of my love for walks on the beach or slow dancing in the rain, you're going to be disappointed because my idea of a good time usually involves things like "burping contests" and "doing The Worm".
