Who's your MAMA???

(Charlie clears her throat and gets that stern mama evil eye going.)

Ya’ll.

SERIOUSLY, ya’ll.

I’m kinda speechless. And confused.

Because when I pour out my heart on a post, I get 0-2 comments. Maybe 5, if it was really touching.

But when I talk about my pubes?

9 COMMENTS.

Oh, did I mention my blog hits were
THROUGH THE ROOF YESTERDAY????

Ahem.

Google Analytics is now thoroughly jacked up. It thinks I'm popular.

And I am SPEECHLESS.

(And honestly, I’m kinda proud. I suppose I have a certain niche in the market. It’s the low-brow half of the market, but still…) (Thbbbbbt, low-brow!!! I'm way lower than that!)

At first, I was embarassed that I associated Hillary from The Other Mama with that post. But as it turns out, I was doing her a favor... oh the layers of irony from that...

So, give aways. We all love 'em, we all enter them, and so help me- I better get more than 9 comments on this one- I'm giving free stuff away. Seriously. And EVERY COMMENT COUNTS AS AN ENTRY IN TODAY'S GIVEAWAY.

Cause I need to feel like you love me for more than my woman pelt. (And you need to go back and see what Jia commented on that last post. I was crying from laughter...)

First of all, if you haven't checked out the Fitbloggin' site- the main blog for the conference I am speaking at in May- you need to head over there. They are giving away an iPod shuffle. And Fitbloggin was the whole reason I started running in the first place. I signed up for their 5K, and figured it would take me until May to hit 3 miles. 

NOPE. In fact, last night I ran 2.7 with no problems. And that was after Bootcamp and a workout with McMuscles. (Singing to herself, "Charlie's a rockstar...") And now my bootcamp buddy Alyson and her hubby and I are running a 5K in a few weeks. More on that later.

But back to the bestest giveaway ever...

I'm excited because Hillary sent me this fantastic sheet that gives all the information we need for a give away. I'm going to copy and paste it here!

Mint Julep Monograms Giveaway Information:

As a true Southern gal, Hillary has always appreciated a good monogram. She has combined her love of cute gifts and personalized items to create Mint Julep Monograms- an online monogrammed boutique to customize a special gift for you or a loved one. She offers original gift ideas for babies, teachers, girlfriends, family and all holiday needs. She may or may not be drinking Mint Juleps while monogramming (okay- most likely not, but wouldn’t that be lovely?).
