Awards: Swing, swang, swung


The weather is swinging wildly like spring will do, and the pixies are swingin' too!

Brevity Award to Liz for our shortest whine this week, "Flu. 'Nuff said." Indeed.

Best single sentence in an ANTI-whine (henceforth known as the Girl Scout Cookie Award, because they are on the menu so often at the Whiner's Ball) goes to amy, for "i said i'm "almost" out of cookies."

Elevated Risk of Mullet Award for best single sentence in a Wednesday Whine goes to kathy a. for "but dudes, the other night, i got night sweats four [4] times, every 1.5 hours all night, leading me to toss blankets and cats all over the place."

Runner-up Mullet Award to Sue for "been there, done that, including the tossing of the cats."

The Fear of a Dark Cloud Award to Margalit, who wonders what we'll think of her ginormous pile of whines. Oy, what a week. The Cluestick Brigade are jumping in a chartered bus to S. Carolina to bop BFF's boyfriend on the noggin. Schmuck. We'll drop off a comfort squad on the way past your town, to work on the rest of the issues.

The Pixie Security Team are fanning out around Genevieve, because WTF is with people who bump into her when she's wearing a neck brace? Be more careful, people of America. Yes, you can.

Old Skool Award to Sara, whose RSS reader is hiding her beloved lolcats. "I do not find loldogs nearly as funny as lolcats," says Sara. Luckily for us, we find you funny.

Thanks for playing! Join us next week when Liz will host from her new undisclosed location.

lovely ceremony, madeleine!

woo, a mullet! i'd like to thank the academy, my hormones, the devoted cats, sue and her cats, the makers of absorbant cotton nightwear, and my patient but somewhat confused husband ["do you have a fever?"].

Thank you, Madeleine, for the fun awards ceremony. I will gladly accept the protection of the Pixie Security Team!

Great ceremony!!

I *knew* Liz was the real new Vice-President. Joe's just a stand-in when she's in her undisclosed location, right?

Lovely ceremony today. And thank you all for the Dark Cloud Award, which seems to be ongoing. Did I mention my rotator cuff injury? No? Hmmmm.
