Peep of the Week

February 10, 2008

As many of you already know, I decided to give some weekly love to my readers by creating a bloggity award.

Every Sunday, I will award one reader my ‘Peep of the Week’ award for a comment that stood out above others for the previous week. The prize is a snazzy sidebar button that you can choose to display (or not) somewhere on your blog and the uber special feeling of knowing that Ms. Tunes thinks you’re snazzy.

(I know, I know. I’m sure the astounding generosity of it all is overwhelming in its awesomeness. Try not to faint, I have freakishly weak arms and would probably end up dropping you.)

This week’s “Peep of the Week” award goes to:

CRAIG from ‘Banter of a Blond Republican Couple”


Craig has always been one of my funniest, snarkiest readers and he makes me laugh all the time.

His win for the week was a comment placed on my post “Cheap! Cheap!” about using generic products:

“I try to get MacKenzie to buy generic feminine products, but she refuses. So selfish.”

It made me spray Diet Coke on my monitor.

Not only did he create the little gem above, but he secured his award on “Choosing a head shot” by stating that I should use this photo for my head shot instead of the two options where I don’t look like I’m channeling Steve Perry with bedhead.

So here you go, Craig. I’m sorry that it isn’t isn’t a more manly. Although, it does make me chortle just a wee bit. Embrace your inner-girl, Craig. Don’t go too overboard though or you might start getting pressure from MacKenzie to use generic brand maxi pads. (Payback is a bitch.)

If you would like to participate and give some linky love to your readers as well, just write up a post on your blog, and enter your blog name and link url (Make sure it is the link to your POST, not just your blog) in the box down below! *I demonstrated with my own blog and Peep of the Week post, so you could see an example!

Feel free to snag my “Peep of the Week” icons for your own blog post and/or the icon I used in this post for your sidebar. You don’t have to participate on Sunday, I’ll keep this open all week so feel free to pick the day you want.

Stumble it!

    What is this??? I see I can put my name and URL, but my poor head can’t understand… HAHAHA. I couldn’t resist putting my name and URL in though. It’s like putting a beer in front of me. I can’t resist cracking it open.

    Craig’s comment made me laugh as well. Now that you mention it… I should have smacked him at the last Illuminati lunch.

    Sorry, Bridgy my love, but you did it wrong.

    I blame myself for not explaining better.

    ONLY enter your name and URL if you are participating in the Peep of the Week award ON YOUR OWN BLOG.

    So, you need to pick a Peep of the Week for YOUR blog, write a post about it, and link to the URL of that post up above.

    I had to delete yours, but feel free to put it back up if you want to play along.

    Don’t hate me for that. I’ll buy you a beer. :)

  • Bridge says:

    NM… I totally understand now. I’ll do this next week when I am not so depressed.

    /sigh

  • loralee says:

    I’m so totally sorry about your bird, Bridgy. She was awesome.

    Let’s do lunch or coffee. (I’ll still buy you a beer.) :)

    Post goes up tomorrow. Seriously, I have commenters that my readers come by just to see what they said. Tomorrow, I will highlight one of them.

  • Angella says:

    This is a great idea, you.

    You are so good at spreading the love :)

  • Amy says:

    What if no one reads your blog?? Ha! Each week it will have to go to my mom!

    :-)I am in. I just need to get it together.

  • Oh technology, you slay me. I did the same thing as Bridge. I’m still trying to embrace battery-powered toothbrushes.

    Great idea about the peep ‘o da week; however, you may be getting an e-mail with the subject line: “So, I’m trying to put this Peep thing on my blog and now my computer is smoking. Can you send help?”

  • loralee says:

    Hee. It’s totally ok. I almost did the same thing the first time I used one of these things.

    I can help you with anything you need. (Which makes me LAUGH considering I am the most technically challenged dork on the planet!!!!!)

    Let me know how I can help! :)
