I’ve always had mad envy for the RVA Internet Awards.  Sure it’s local, and doesn’t feature Dooce in any category - and that’s why I love it so much.  I’ve enjoyed nominating and voting in past elections - some of my friends are recipients of the awards, and some of my favorite writers who wouldn’t deign to speak to me are, too. 

I got nominated this year and actually made it to the ballot, which fills me with a ridiculous amount of joy.  You LOVE me.  YOU REALLY REALLY LOVE ME.  Nah.  A couple of people who read me nominated me obviously, and there is the magic of landing on the ballot. 

I’m up for “Best Kept Secret” - basically blogs that have no readers yet   Since I’ve been blogging since 2003, I’m wondering if this should bother me.  I checked.  Nope, doesn’t bother me.

If you love me - REALLY REALLY LOVE ME - you can take a second to vote for me.  If you are not in RVA and have no idea what this is all about, you can still vote. 

Either way, Imma Be Bloggin Anyway.
