Winner, Winner!

Quick announcement for the footrest winner, and then I have to get back to judging a contest for my local library. (Something I've been doing annually for six years now. Quite fun, I must say.)

I kept a clear list of every single entry on an Excel spreadsheet to make sure every single entry was accounted for (every comment, tweet, FB mention, blog post).

I used Random.org to pick the winner.

It picked: Entry #19: Mandy!

Yea, Mandy!

(I'm half tempted to go, "Oh, Mandy . . ." and start crooning like Barry Manilow, but that would date me, so I won't. Whoops.)

I've actually known Mandy for years, and because of our connections, it feels like we're related, even though we're not.

(No favoritism, I swear. It was all Random.org's doing. Not that I'm complaining. Yea, Mandy!)

Mandy, e-mail me your mailing address (I don't think I have it!) and your phone number (the company needs that for their accounts--I think I have your old one), and I'll get your footrest ordered.

Woohoo!

Thanks to everyone who played!

I'll be sure to have something fun up for Word Nerd Wednesday this week, since I flaked last week.

Putting my judging hat back on . . .

Oh, and that cracks me up that you mentioned that song, I used to have it sung to me by a teacher in high school every time he saw me!
