your breath is performance art
oh great not this again. up against dooce AGAIN for best diarist. i won it in 2006 mainly because she never mentioned it on her site. i have never heard of the other blogs in my category, can’t wait to read their snide raymi digs, yeesh. voting begins in 3 days and i will likely nag the crap out of you. do i not deserve this award? i think so.
Dooce is one of my reminders not to have kids. I don’t want my web presence becoming anything like hers *vomit*, and apparently incessant verbal (written?) diarrhea about your kid is scientifically impossible to avoid after you pop one out.
Then again, I don’t find myself irresistibly compelled to post thousand-word essays about my cat, either. Picture or two on Flickr, sentence or two tops elsewhere. I know no one gives a shit. What I can’t figure out is why anyone gives a shit about Dooce.
mehhh
Navigating around that dooce site is lame. No offense to her but opinions vary.
I’ll be voting for ya.
ME WANT PIZZA
re: finalists list. congrats! but, oh my god, interesting. i’m singing, “one of these is not like the other” meaning you – and in a good way, of course. best of luck!
i fink dat you are so the best for this award bcos of your socks have many hearts but not as many hearts dat luf yoo to da fullest!!
next year i wanna be in the best ASIAN blog category.
well just to kill a few mins. i clicked on a few others on that list.. most seem like boring soccer moms.. heck i don’t see why you care one way or the other because based on that list the ‘awards’ seem to have ZERO credibility even YOUR MOM’s blog is more interesting IMHO.
btw, nice shower curtain, the old one was getting old (not that is my real business aside from the fact that you blogged about it)
cheers
Don’t worry Raymi, you always have my vote. Your blog is the only one I read really. Everything else is on facebook. hah.
I love those socks and now I’m going to order some pizza.. mmm..
yessssssssssssssssss.
you do.
Hey… do you reckon you’re the reincarnation of a flea… you do a lot of jumping around ;->…
Dooce isn’t a blogger anyway. Someone who won’t let in comments can’t call their website a blog. It’s a just a website.
Happy new year darlin’!
the reason to care about these awards is for press/media purposes only.
just let me know when they’re slagging me and defend my honour please thank you.
I agree with Candice but with a a caveat. Dooce is not only a reminder as to how many should never breed, but as to how some are just completely useless as parents. People don’t say it because it will garner huge amounts of criticism, but Heather (Dooce) is basically a mess and the burden of parenting is falling on her husband. All I think when I read Dooce’s diatribes is how fortunate I am that my own mom wasn’t such a fuck-up. It ‘s a harsh assessment and my own..but I’d argue with anyone as to it’s validity.
understood.
p.s. scientology kills! ! ! !
