one hundred

look at me. i'm at post 100. can i hear a woot woot? wha? wha? say it again. woot woot!

so i know i promised good words for this post. but welp. that was just a ploy to get you to come back. wait wait! don't go. may i offer you a giveaway instead?

that's right. for my 100th post, i'm having a giveaway. for my favorite new thing. it's called wreck this journal by keri smith. it's filled with instructional pages. like. there's a page that says "chew on this". don't worry. there's a warning not to swallow. then there are pages that require you to "collect fruit stickers" and "glue random items". then there's my favorite "burn this page" page. i love the fiyah.

so what do you have to do enter? well. you can telepathically let me know you want your name put into the hat. but that line is often busy. as i don't have call waiting in my head. so you're probably best off doing this:

  1. leave me a comment on this 100th post. any comment. tell me a joke. tell me you love me. or both. just don't joke about loving me. eh. doesn't matter. any comment.
  2. for an extra entry visit any other post on my blog. leave a comment on that post. then come back and leave a separate comment on this 100th post telling me which other post you commented on. then read step number 2 again to make sure you got it right. (no. past comments do not count. and if you leave 500 additional comments, it only counts as one additional entry. dude. i know. i'm tough.)
  3. leave a safe way for me to contact you.
  4. just for extra fun. if i get 100 valid entries (or more), i'll throw in another wreck this journal and pick a second winner.

i can't wait to read all your comments. there's no need to impress me. though. i don't mind a well thought out comment.

on friday march 27, 2009 at 11:03pm est, i will use the random number generator to select the winner(s). giveaway winner(s) must reply to my contact within 2 days. otherwise, i will visit the random number generator again.

and now for the fine print. it's more small print than fine. contest starts as soon as this is posted. it ends at 11:02pm on friday, march 27, 2009 est. one entry per person - unless you comment on any other post of mine. in that case, you'll have one additional entry. additional comments must be verified. if i cannot verify your comment, i press that trashcan icon where your comment claim is. dude, i told you i was tough. if you do not follow the rules, i may still publish your comment. it just won't count as an entry. yes, the toughness continues. chances of winning depend on the number of entries. raise your chances of winning by not telling anyone. lower your chances by telling everyone you know. and vice versa as i will giveaway two journals if i have at least 100 entries. this contest is open to you - whether i know you or not. this is my sixth giveaway. if i have a positive response, i'll have more giveaways to bring you back. if i don't have a positive response, i'll still have more giveaways to bring you back. by entering this giveaway, you agree to abide by the rules i've stated or not stated. and i can change the rules whenever i please. it's a woman's prerogative. and please note. you in the back. yes, you. i saw you. you only mouthed the "woot woot". you didn't actually "woot woot". i'm so disappointed.

Amanda (Blake) Fall said...

Woot woot!

I keep meaning to buy that book... hmmm.... ;)

Studio6or7 said...

I love giveaways! I'm new to reading your blog. And I'm new to my own blog- I'm on post #4. I can't imagine getting to 100 but hopefully I'll be as good as you someday. Great blog!

Marci said...

What do you get when you have a brown chicken and a brown cow??

Brown Chicken, Brown Cow, hahahaha!
Congrats on your 100th post my lovely friend.

mommycao said...

I don't just love you, I lllloooovvvvveeee you!

Your sister....

mommycao said...

my 2nd comment was on your 99th post.

Irish Chicken Soup said...

I'm here first! That should count for something right?But of course by the time I actually finish typing this someone will come along and comment or maybe you just haven't checked in a while and so there's actually A LOT of people in front of me, After all you are so fabulous it's silly to think I could be the first person here when oodles of people must plan their day around whether or not you've posted something, in which case I just sort of made an ass of myself and really should get the journal that way it doesn't scar my already bruised, and still maturing teenage ego.

You wouldn't want to be responsible for that, would you Wendi?

SLGraffoo said...

ARGH! You don't have to have contests to get me to leave comments. Now I have to think of more witty things to say so I can get this done and back to all my facebook games.

Ilena said...

I came over this morning to say congrats congrats (x100). Great milestone! I also came over to see what you were going to say today, I had no idea that you would be having a giveaway as well. So while I'm here please toss my name in the hat as well. So have a super day, happy Spring and keep up the great blogging!

SLGraffoo said...

There. not only did I comment on your purse blog entry (search for "cheese"), I also added your RSS feed to my google home page. This way I won't miss your entries unless I avoid both facebook AND my google info.

Jenny said...

Amber said...

Oh snap! Marci stole my joke! Oh well... Why did the cow cross the road? Cause he wanted to go to the Mooooovies!

Winn, you know you're a fabulous dudette. Now randomly make me win that awesome journal!

Amber said...

I commented on Valentines Day.

Ashley said...

I do love you! Serious.

Insanity Kim said...

This is comment #1, not to be confused with #1, but definitely not as interesting as #2, which is coming soon,literally and figuratively...

HAPPY 100TH POST! Woot! woot! (Complete with hands in the air. Now a little cabbage patch.)

muchmorethanmommy said...

I commented on Giveaway Winner #5 -- because it got you to 10 comments and I know how much you love those double digits!

Unless someone commented on that one before me and you just hadn't approved it. But really it's the thought that counts.

If I don't win the giveaway, can I still get a Slurpee?

Insanity Kim said...

Here is comment number #2, not to be confused with #2, as that would be sick and wrong. At least this comment came first.

My favorite...oh so many...

99 of course
Your Nothing post
The Toe Socks, where we met (sap)
Vartan Man
Spam
Any post where you mention Yours Truly
The Fly post
So, so many more...

How many entries is that good for?

Shauna said...

Woot, Woot! Can I get a Wha, Wha?! Girl, you so fly...

This journal looks fun, but not as fun as you...

Would you wreck it with me?!

Hugs,

Shauna said...

You are the best ever. I'm not worthy. I'm so not worthy, I only wanted to come here and tell you how great you are and how lowly I am in my very humble way. Not to make you love me the best, no not really.

That's a sweet giveaway. Great jobs on 100 posts. Don't have a joke but wanted to point out that I come across so many blogs that have been abandoned back in october of 07. So thanks for sticking around.

J Jordan said...

Thanks for the giveaway! I've got my fingers crossed!

Marigold said...

When I read "burn this page," I immediately thought of half a dozen disrespectful and inappropriate things to say about the page's mother. Only later did it occur to me that this could could equally be interpretted as a command to set the page on fire. This should tell you pretty much everything you need to know about where my mind is right now.

UniqueNurseGranny said...

you have a great sense of humor...

Marigold said...

I commented on "open letter." My comment there was slightly less tangential than the one I posted here.

TheresaJ said...

Well, geez, Wendi, I've been trying to reach you telepathetically for two days, but since you haven't answered, I guess I'll leave my comment here. Love your blog, love you, you crack me up!!! Looking forward to the next 100!

TheresaJ said...

I commented on Signal Lights. Both informative and funny! :)

Kearsie said...

Dear Winn,

Commenting now.

Kearsie said...

Dear Winn,

Commenting twice now. Actually, this is comment #3. I hit the Unicorn post again. Mainly because I know it was about me.

Love and sappy stuff,

Sue Wintz said...

Congrats on your 100th. I really enjoyed reading through your posts. You really have a gift for writing!

Ashley said...

I just left a comment on your 99 post. I'm helping the people get to 100.

LoveCreations24 said...

You should really consider adding the 'follow me' feature on your page - I want to follow you but I don't want to add to spam mail coming in my email by subscribing to posts - It would be out of hand!! So could you pretty please add it!?!? =)

Kat C. said...

Congrats! =)

The Dreamer said...

How about a joke?

A few days after Christmas, a mother was working in the kitchen listening to her young son playing with his new electric train in the living room. She heard the train stop and her son said, "All of you sons of bitches who want off, get the hell off now, cause this is the last stop! And all of you sons of bitches who are getting on, get your asses in the train, cause we're going down the tracks."

The mother went nuts and told her son, "We don't use that kind of language in this house. Now I want you to go to your room and you are to stay there for TWO HOURS. When you come out, you may play with your train, but I want you to use nice language."

Two hours later, the son comes out of the bedroom and resumes playing with his train. Soon the train stopped and the mother heard her son say, "All passengers who are disembarking from the train, please remember to take all of your belongings with you. We thank you for riding with us today and hope your trip was a pleasant one. We hope you will ride with us again soon." She hears the little boy continue, "For those of you just boarding, we ask you to stow all of your hand luggage under your seat. Remember, there is no smoking on the train. We hope you will have a pleasant and relaxing journey with us today."

As the mother began to smile, the child added, "For those of you who are pissed off about the TWO HOUR delay, please see the bitch in the kitchen."

'Ello again. I tried to space my comments out that way it might increase my chances with the random number generator, pointless considering the definition of the word "random", but hey, I like to lie to myself.
