Christmas Contest, Day Four

Date December 17, 2009

And the individual who correctly guessed what Christmas song has been stuck in my head for days is…no one! That’s right, losers each and every one of you. And while I’m more than a little relieved no one was able to crawl inside my head and know what was bouncing around in there, I’m sorry no one guessed the right answer, but I have a prize to give away and by gosh and by golly I’m going to! So what I did was write everyone’s name down on a scrap of paper that submitted an entry, tossed them in a bowl, closed my eyes and pulled out the winner, and the winner who was wrong like all the rest of you but wins anyway because he was apparently wearing his lucky panties is Kevin. Congratulations for having your name on the right piece of paper Kevin! Now send your mailing address to anita@sisterfriends-together.org and a Superball and gift certificate to Uncommon Goods will be bouncing their way to your front door!

And the song was, despite it’s non-inclusive title, was and as of this morning when I was humming it once again is “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.” If I’ve sung it once over the past week I’ve sung it a 100 times, which is about 87 times more than my beloved wishes were the case.

Huh. The song, God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. The winner by luck of the draw, Kevin. It seems as though it was meant to be.

Today’s Game: Yes, it’s that time. It’s time for “Find the Hidden Picture!”, a repeat of a game from last year that nearly drove a few of you to drink….egg nog, that is. So here’s how this game goes. Somewhere on this website is a hidden link that will open up an image that tells what the prize is for today’s winner. The first person who finds the image and submits the text of EXACTLY what it says is the winner. So have at it my merry band of treasure hunters!

    this contest is just way too complicated for my simple brain…no really it is. i’m looking forward to tomorrow’s game and i’ll try not to think of myself as a dismal failure in the meantime.
