Guests and a weiner
I'm taking a week off of blogging. From tomorrow until next Sunday, I won't be posting. I'll still be reading and commenting, but I'm giving myself a bit of a break.
Luckily, I've got quite the roster of guest bloggers set up for the next week. Here's the schedule:
Sunday, 9/23: RW
Monday, 9/24: Mr. Fabulous
Tuesday, 9/25: Britt
Wednesday, 9/26: AmyD
Thursday, 9/27: Dave2
Friday, 9/28: Crystal
Saturday, 9/29: Poppy
Sunday, 9/30: Jester
So, give them lots of love and thanks for taking the time to come over here and post!
The second item on the agenda is the contest. I asked for suggestions for the music to be the permanent accompaniment to my vlog intro last week and got almost 100 different entries. Thanks to everyone who put in the time and effort to come up with a song, especially those of you who actually synced it up with the video! It was a very, very hard decision to come up with the winner, and I had to think long and hard and listen to several of the finalists over a dozen times.
But I had to choose a winner, and so I did. Without further ado, here is my new official vlog intro set to "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" by Starship. Thanks to Clown for the entry!
Thank you again to everyone who entered – you guys had some great ideas! I'll see you in a week.

Jefferson Starship sings that song.
Perfect choice! It's great!

Amanda, and it flows so well with the theme, too.
Dave, someday I may fall out of love with her. I don't want to be stuck with a reminder of my unrequited desire.
BPR, I haven't been feeling creative. This way, I can take a week, still read blogs, but also just relax my brain a bit. I've already written my post for next Monday, so don't worry about me not coming back.
Trish, don't let that drama queen BPR start any rumors!
Absurdist, it's actually just "Starship" now, because they got sued and had to remove "Jefferson" from it.

Good choice (The guests bloggers and the vlog intro).

Oh my God, I hate that song.
My hope is that my post is so offensive that the villagers will burn down your blog.

Sybil, the laugh is all that matters.

BPR, would princess be more appropriate?
Crystal, feel better, k?
Mr. Fabulous, do you have no soul?

Do you care that you misspelled wiener as weiner? Maybe not. I saw that when I first visited the post but I figured someone else would yell at you about it.

Actually, I didn't. "Weiner" has been used to mean specific types of hot dogs, even though "wiener" is the appropriate spelling. However, I was using it strictly for the homonym – "weener" instead of "winner". So there!

Ok.
I've been wiener sk00l3d. Again.
