Winning Tuesday
Sparkling Awards


I was awarded these two awards by Awake in Rochester. Thanks! It looks like they originate with Glitterfy.com, not Glitterfly.com as I first thought, so let’s give them a link too.
So, who shall I award these to? Well, as they say, the early bird gets the worm, so I’ll pass these awards on to the early commentators on Web Trek II: The Wrath of the Single Blogolope. They are: Michelle Gartner, Rolando, Teeni, Awake in Rochester (imagine that–you’ve been doubly awarded!), Opal @ Vegan Momma, Kacie, Robert A. Henru, Lillie Ammann and the real MrBaconpants.
Pete’s usually early on the scene for these things, but he’s MIA so he misses out on this one, even though he’s the Top Commentator.
And, Joanne, wherefore art though, Joanne? MIA for over a month now, and Pete’s taken the Top Commentator spot away from her.
I Named a Ferret!
Doug had a “Name that ferret (contest!)” and I won! Doug actually preferred a different name, Dweezil, but was outvoted by his family. We all know how that goes… Anyway, I won a $25 gift certificate from PetSmart.com, which means some Chihuahuas are going to be very happy when they get their favorite treats that are only available on PetSmart.com (the local store doesn’t even carry them).
And, now Doug’s new ferret will be known as Ferret Bueller. So, if Ferret runs off like the last one, they’ll just need to hire Ben Stein to walk their neighborhood saying “Bueller. Bueller. Bueller.”
But, anyway, let’s extend some link love to the other contenders in the contest: Chris (no URL listed), dcr (wait… that was me…), Dwight Wannabe, Anduin, Tracy MacNish, Stamper in CA (no URL listed), Angel (no URL listed), Dean, microsoar, C2 (no URL listed), shaina, rawdawgbuffalo, fiveandfour, Lucie (no URL listed), Neo and CornDog.
Crossing Memes Off the List
I can cross this one off the list, since I got them all (I hope!) in yesterday’s viral story.
Star Blogger Award

Jeanne awarded this one to me back in January. Thanks!
I’m going to pass this along to Pete for his educational videos, Robert for giving everyone a reason to smile, and Bobby because we don’t want to make him mad. Ever.
And, whoever the blogger is that has pop-under ads for Netflix, I am going to track you down and make Bobby mad at you. I hate those pop-under ads. And, now I dislike Netflix for using them.
You Cheer Me Up Award
I was awarded this one by Ann of A Nice Place in the Sun, also in January. Thanks!
I am going to pass this one along to Terence for his Smile My Day blog.
Have a Happy Winning Tuesday everyone!




Whoa! I got an award just for blabbing as usual, I mean commenting? Very cool. Thank you so much! I don’t think I have any of these glittery ones in my trophy room yet. I will post about them in a couple of weeks (I apologize for the delay but will be working on a project that will keep me swamped until then) but I do thank you and will post about them as soon as I can!
I’ve had some of these awards since January, so I’m in no position to complain about whatever length of time it takes you to post yours.
Ohhh glittery stuff it makes me feel like a magpie.
Glitter makes you peckish?
Thanks for the award. I’m beginning to wonder about the top commentator position. Joanne held it and vanished. Now I’ve got it and I’m slowly slipping away. Is that top spot cursed or something? Is it like the guest bedroom where someone died but nobody tells you because they don’t want to freak you out? Maybe that can be your first question for Ask dcr.
Come to think of it, Alex may have held that top spot before Joanne. No new posts on his blog since last year…
I’m going to break the curse. Or you could just reset the counter monthly. Are you sure that your server isn’t located on some old Indian burial ground?
It’s in the Bronx.
Hahaha…I promise I can’t turn into the Hulk and don’t have magical witchcraft powers!
Thanks for the award Dan, it really helped lift my spirits:)
You’re welcome!
You’re welcome, Dan!
Jeanne
Thanks again!
Thanks a lot Dan! You seems to have lots of awards, can I know how many awards you’ve got?
I guess you’ve lost count of them.
Once again,thanks man!
Robert
Ten awards, I think, all together.
Thanks for the award it’s really nice.
I like the name you gave the ferret. I have four of them; Ganesh, Indra, Hanuman, and Kali
Hey thanks! I never imagine that I would be doubly awarded! Is that legal? lol
I know that your making many changes, but please keep this post. I am using it in one of my posts now, and intend to again when I give the Sparkling Awards away again, (maybe in winter?). Thanks!
Yes, link love is coming your way!
[...] week I received the Glittery Fly Award from DCR but not because I am spectacular or a “glittery fly” per se but because I commented [...]
