Yesterday was just an average day, just like any other day in the life of KM & D until we arrived home and D went to get the mail. He came in the house and said, "Who is Lastname from Somecity, MN?" To be honest, I wasn't quite sure, but then I turned around and saw that he had a package for me. "That's my prize from my blogger friend!" (Thirty before 30)A huge eye roll followed.
D: Why did you get a prize?
KM: I won her Tuesday Tunes contest.
After a short explanation of blogs and the contest...
D: But you suck at that.
KM: Well, yes. But I named the song and someone else named the artist so we both got something "Real Nice".
But D is right; knowing artists names is not my strong suit. For the first 4 years that I listened to country I didn't know that Garth Brooks sang more than half of my favorite songs. I knew I liked Garth Brooks, but I didn't know how much I liked him until D gave me the box set of all of his albums. Apparently he knew how much I liked Garth Brooks. Coincidentally, Garth Brooks has a new album out called Ultimate Hits--it hits shelves today.
Anyway, I did win the contest. (I won! I won! I really, really won!) and Thirty sent me a great package full of prizes (pictured above). I do have a crush on Jim from "The Office" so I really appreciate the I Heart Jim notepad. And who wouldn't love hot chocolate and Lip Smackers? Thank you, Thirty! I love my prize(s) and I will continue to play; but now you know that it was a complete fluke that I won!
Yay! I'm so glad the prize made it's way to you and that you liked it.
ReplyDeleteA new contest will be up later today. You'll have to try again!
Thanks for the great prize! I tried to guess today's tune, but I have no idea.
ReplyDeleteOooo! That is a good prize!
