I am ever so grateful

You guys are so awesome.


I am humbled and kind of embarrassed at the amount of support I've gotten over the last few days over my little whine. I thought you guys were just going to bitch-slap me and tell me to shut up! But since you didn't...dont go getting any ideas, now.


Really! Thank you from the bottom of my little black heart! I've met some amazing new friends, checked in with some really good old friends, and even my new Frenchman visitor has joined my cult! Thanks Pierre! You're the coolest French person I know...the only French person I know, but still the coolest! You're welcome at my house anytime. Just dont be surprised if I want to blog you again. *wink wink*


Okay, so let's talk about some more interesting things, shall we? How about my contest??!! And let me tell you, this prize is only the beginning. Remember, this is my cherry-poppin contest, so it's got to be a gentle prize.


The bigger dicks...I mean prizes... are still to come.


How do you play for the prize? Link The Housewife Diaries in a post on your blog. If you dont have a blog, well then you suck and just leave me a comment to enter. But for the bloggers- let everyone on your blog know that I'm having a cherry-poppin contest. Once your post is up, come back and leave the link in my comments. So then I can come and harass you. Heehee. And that's it! You're entered!


What's the prize?

It's called Into Thin Air and it's written by Jon Krakauer. Dont get disappointed- this isn't just a book. It's my most favorite book in the entire world. This book rocked my freakin world. And I think everyone should read it and have a copy of their own. Even if you dont think the story description sounds appealing....give it a chance. It will get you. And it's a true story. If you already own the book- enter anyway and give the book to a friend.

I will randomly pick a winner on Saturday, January 31st. Good luck!


And remember, this is only the beginning. I have a few more prizes lined up for future contests, including one from Uppercase Living (thanks Desiree!), and also a prize directly from Shecky's. The Shecky's people contacted me this week (how cool is that?), and want to collaborate. They've graciously invited me to their Summer '09 Girl's Night Out, and have offered to pass out some tickets to YOU the readers as well! You dont even have to live in Vegas to win tickets....to see all the upcoming Shecky's events that are being held, GO HERE.

And, if you win, and you dont have an event near you, I will personally buy you a beautiful piece of jewelry from the event here in Vegas and send it to you. I'll even try to work something out to get you your very own goodie bag. So there's no excuse!

Again, the current contest is to win my most prized read, Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer.

Stay tuned for more upcoming contests and prizes!

Hope to see your entry and good luck!
