Three years and counting, baby!

Unbelievably, this blog has been going for 3 years now.  That’s 831 posts. And just over 8,100 comments.

I’ve “met” some amazing people.  Some live 30 minutes away from me.  Some live in other countries.  O.K.  Only 1 lives in another country, but she’s really cool so I’m going to refer to her as “some”.  Because it’s my blog and I can.

Speaking of things I can do because this is my blog…

Time to give you guys free stuff!

I’m giving away $25 to whatever you want, as long as it’s something I’m able to get from the comfort of my own laptop.

If it’s a gift card and I can get my hands on it, it’s yours. If you are raising money for charity, it’s yours. If you want me to buy you something on Etsy, it’s yours.

THIS IS OPEN TO EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE!

Here’s how you can enter:

  1. All you have to do is leave me a comment telling me what you would want, and why.  All comments that say “Enter me” or “Cool giveaway” or whatever will be deleted.  Let’s all play nice, now. You scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours.
  2. Tweet the following “Thea’s giving away money!  Enter now! http://wp.me/pa5LH-TB”
  3. You can do each of these once a day for a total of six entries!

I’ll close down the comments at 11:30 pm EST on Sunday, February 28th and then pick a comment using the random generator thingy.  GOOD LUCK!!

And pssst…I’m having another giveaway, too.

    I would have you buy me some new makeup from Sephora because I am running low. Bare Escentuals foundation is my fave!

    My one and only pair of sweatpants somehow developed big old hole in the front of them and let’s just say that if I were going commando, it could get ugly. I’m using this as my lame excuse to not work out, so you see, I’m desperate. I need to order another pair from Old Navy, and if were the lucky winner, I’d send you a picture of my current pair (non-commando, of course)

    Wow Thea! This is great! I would love to win, but I can’t really think of what I want. I have been unemployed since August and so wholly focused on finishing law school that I’ve sort of put me on the back burner. Me taking charge of my weight issues and finding the Shrinking Jeans site is a way of me attempting to remember I am important too.

    Now that I think about it maybe a gift card to Target or Sports Authority so I can get heavier hand weights for the 30 day shred challenge!

    Thanks Thea! Good luck everyone!
