I Announce the WINNERS of the Haiku Contest at I Do Things So You Don’t Have To

I Announce the WINNERS of the Haiku Contest

4 Comments Published by JD October 3rd, 2007 in I Give and Receive.

Celebrate, celebrate
Dance to the music *

OMG! Can you hardly stand the excitement?!

We have two deserving winners, folks, and the fact that they also happened to be the only two entrants doesn’t make their haikus any less fantastic.

The challenge, if you recall, was to write a haiku about I Do Things. This they did, with style and humor. May I present, in order of submission:

Kathy:

I’m new to this blog.
Until today I thought that
J.D. was a man.

and

Cardiogirl:

Found you through Stumble
Glad that I came by to see
You make me laugh girl!

Aren’t they awesome? And that’s not all. So desperate to win the fabulous prize package, they each submitted follow-up haikus:

Kathy:

I think you should let
Me and Cardiogirl win
I miss Las Vegas.

Cardiogirl:

I agree with Kath
We were first, it’s only fair
Let us take it all!

Hee! Anyway, I’m pleased to announce Kathy and Cardiogirl as the winners of the fabulous Las Vegas prize package. I’m also very happy to have “met” these funny and smart women, and I suggest you visit their blogs, as they are witty, thoughtful, well-written, and unique.

Kathy and Cardiogirl, please send me your addresses via my Contact Form at the top of the page or at my e-mail: idothings AT yahoo.com.

I am so thrilled that
I won some unique prizes
What a cool contest!

Ok, ok. I promise I won’t leave any more comments in the form of haikus. Unless you ask me to.

Canucklehead, don’t be sad!

I was perhaps a bit quick to announce the winners: your entry was submitted within the deadline of 10-2, and therefore, Canucklehead . . .

YOU ARE THE THIRD WINNER OF THE FABULOUS PRIZE PACKAGE!!!

I’m sending you an e-mail, so, after your excitement subsides, you can take the next step to receiving your fabulous prize. I’m also going to update my blog to reflect our three winners.

Thanks for entering!!!
