I heart Oklahoma
Hey, remember a while back when I insulted Mike, the REALLY REALLY NICE guy at OkieDokie? (Let me say again how sorry I am about that. Honestly.) Well how’s this for a happy ending? This site has been nominated for an Okie Blog Award for Best Family Blog, and I suspect it’s by one of the wonderful people who found me through Mike’s blog. Isn’t that fun? Whoever you are, thank you–I’m so very flattered.
Whew–now I’m feeling the pressure to write something fabulous about my family. And maybe to stop swearing so much. And to stop talking about my drinking. This is hard.
Now go away and let me think.

Don’t stop swearing!! I need the moral support: I’m seriously thinking of letting my persona slip a bit. (Can Mary Poppins call someone a “stupid fucker”?) Well, she sometimes does, in her real life, but can she blog it?

Congratulations!! Thats pretty cool!

Way cool! If I was an Okie, I’d vote for ya. Please don’t stop swearing or talking about your drinking. I love your blog because it lets me know that maybe my kid and I aren’t so abnormal after all.

Do you have to be an Okie to vote? I don’t see anything on the site about that.

Mary P. and I need to start our own Stupid Fucker blog where we can let the explicatives roam free. Hmmm, Mary P., don’t know if the parents you told about the site would like it all that much. Double standards, ya know.
You know how I feel, Susan. Don’t change a thing.
Congratulations, dear! You’ve got my vote!

Congratulations!!
Please do not change anything.
I do not think I can vote for you because I do not live in OK. I hope you win, and do not forget about us when you break into the big time.
You rock!

Aww, girls, you’re making me blush–thanks so much. And don’t worry, the drinking and swearing shall continue! Whoo hoo!
I think, Educat, if I’m understanding the rules properly (and you should check this again at the site) that only active Okie bloggers are eligible to vote; you have to be living in OK and writing a blog. So vote now! Yes, you! And you! Do it!
Or I will be forced to stop swearing. I swear.

Just want you to know that in honor of your nomination, I went out and bought a bottle of Smoking Loon Merlot to drink all by myself tonight, damn it. My kid has driven be to it. (Well maybe just a glass for now.) Thanks for the inspiration. Tee hee.

Eh, I am both active and Okie and have already voted (though I was not the one who nominated you!). I do think the spirit of the law is that the contest be for and by Okie Bloggers.
You know, if you type the words Okie Blogger enough, it doesn’t even look like a phrase.

Had to mention…
I like the new green font on your site.

Do you think Mike nominated you?
August 22nd, 2005 at 7:08 am, Susan Says:
That would be so funny! But I doubt it, although I will say AGAIN how sorry I am about shooting my mouth off and what a nice guy Mike seems to be.
Some day I just KNOW I’m going to meet him in person and I will melt into the floor. Truly.

You can’t stop swearing and talking about drinking. Swearing and talking about drinking is what gets me through the day!!!!!

YAY!!!! That’s so exciting! And to think that we know someone famous…..

I am only a wee bit embarassed to admit that I have wondered if I should have said something to incite a wee riot and perhaps get enough readers to get myself nominated.
Roll your eyes, I probably have it coming.
