Actually, you’re prettier than pretty

Hey, I just wanted to let everyone know that thanks to your support, Want Not took second place for Best Shopping Blog in the 2007 Blogger’s Choice Awards. The margin between first and second place was quite slim, and I’m thrilled with the results.

This blog exists because of you, the readers. I love writing it, and I love that people enjoy it enough to come on back and leave comments and shop through me and vote for me in geeky little contests. Without you, there would be no Want Not. So thank you for everything, my pretties. You make it all worthwhile.

    CONGRATS to you, Mir! You keep us coming for many reasons–prettiness, great deals, humor, and oh yeah, our wantnot addiction.

    CONGRATS!! :)

    I’m wavering back and forth between shock that you didn’t win and excitement for you. I guess I’ll let the excitement win. :) Congratulations!

    i can’t tell if i’m thrilled that you got 2nd place, or if i’m really, really annoyed that freaking purseblog.com got first. :P your site is far cooler and more helpful! congrats on 2nd, tho. :)

    I’m with Liv….how on earth could a PURSE blog beat you?? There is so much MORE to shopping than purses!!!

    Congrats on your award, even though it should have been first!

    A purse blog? Feh, I say! (Hey, if what I need to carry doesn’t fit in my pockets, it gets left home.)

    Congratulations! (Although, a purse blog? They’re kidding, right?) You definitely deserved First Place!

    Congrats, Mir. You were robbed. We all know you would have ran away with it if it had been a beauty competition.

    Purseblog?!!! It was a fix! It had to be! You were totally robbed. You give us the scoop on cheap purses and so much more! Whatever, you’re still the prettiest in my book! Congratulations, Mir!

    Congratulations! Well-deserved. My only complaint is that now you’re going to get a whole new contingent of loyal readers, making it even MORE unlikely that I will ever win a contest.

    Sigh.
