I had planned this hilarious* post about my recent trips to the doctor. Instead, I’ve conceded defeat to my mystery illness and am currently doped up on antibiotics, painkillers, folic acid and seizure meds while dancing with an elephant. While I curse my family’s genes and wonder why I’ve been bred like a junkyard mongrel, I have one special favour to ask you guys.
The Irish Blog Awards are taking place soon and they are currently accepting nominations.
Now I don’t want to ask you guys to nominate me. That’s right, I don’t want to ask you guys. Hint hint. Cough cough. Nudge nudge. Wink wink. Hula dances towards you. Okay, so maybe I would like to be nominated, I probably didn’t make that obvious enough. I can put away the coconut bikini now.
If you would like to nominate me, you can click here. Since there doesn’t seem to be an owl category, I guess I’ll have to fit into humour, because according to my imaginary friend Sally,
I’m a funny gal. If you don’t want to nominate me, that’s cool, I won’t send my flea-infested flying monkeys after you. What? I said I won’t.
To be serious for a second (FYI, it’ll be more than a second) I have been unwell lately and I don’t know what’s wrong. You could say I’m going for the sympathy vote here, and you’d be right. I am.
Anyone who does nominate me, I sincerely thank you. When I get better, I will dedicate my next dance fight to you.
So please help me look like this:

Jurassic Park B***hes!
And don’t make me do this:

That was the best blog post about owls of all time, OF ALL TIME!
Thanks guys,
I’m going to take a little rest for a while but I’ll be back (said in a very non-threatening manner).
*I bought my own pee. Trust me, it was hilarious.
I should probably add that nominations close tomorrow, but whatever. *stares intently at you*
You will need the following info:
My email is cupidorcats@hotmail.com and I live in Co. Roscommon.
That will make stalking me a lot easier.
I want to read the one you had planned…sounds…interesting. Seriously, feel better-ly. ((Hugs))
Going to nominate you but it asked me what county in Ireland to help you with publicity…?
Oh sorry, I meant to say that, it’s Roscommon.
Thank you so so much 🙂
I will post up the doctor entry once I get all my tests done. It was hilariously awkward 😀
Again, THANK YOU!!!
You should add your email to the post as well so people don’t have to look for it..it is required. I put cupidorcats@hotmail.com 🙂
Oh gosh, didn’t realise they wanted so much. Thanks for the head’s up and hope it hasn’t been too much trouble 🙂
No problem at all!
At least you won’t have to worry about flying monkeys 😀
Done.
Thank you very much!
I am in the process of nominating your good self but I’m stuck on a few things and short of staking your blog for a few hours, I’ll have to ask you instead.
Do you fit in the diaspora section? And your blog goes by your URL name I assume?
Best of luck to you, you have a great blog.
i’m in the diaspora but you don’t need to worry as i have already been nominated. but thanks anyway. niall. and i love your blog, good luck to you.
Thank you!
just so we’re clear, i live among the diaspora by virtue of being an ex-pat, but i am emphatically not a member of the disapora 🙂
Gotcha! So that means you don’t say “eh” and “oot”? Have to say, I’m slightly disappointed now. As long as you have copious amounts of maple syrup, I’ll be happy.
I have in fact MADE maple syrup.
and i’ve gone curling, snowshoeing and ice-fishing. and i live among people who look and sound like characters from The Beachcombers
You’re a regular *insert name of generic famous Canadian*
I was watching an episode of How I Met Your Mother the other day and the Canadian stereotypes were hilarious. The Tim Hortons references, the donuts, Paul Shaffer and how mannerly Canadians are purported to be.
lol. they are. it’s sickening.
Been out sining and drinking, waiting for the “supermoon” tonight, which is covered by clouds. Grrr..but I will get right to it tomorrow. Be well sweetie. We all love you and send the best thoughts. Hugs!
That sounds like a lot of fun 🙂 thank you so much Cheryl! When I’m better I’ll write up a lovely thank you post.
Will only vote for you because you wore a coconut bikini…. 🙂
Ha, thank you! There was also a hula skirt if that helps??
Nailed. Now where’s this picture of you in a coconut bikini..?
PS – I really hope you feel/get better.
PPS – Where are those reviews 😉
It’s pinned on my fridge, along with all the others pictures I have of myself because I’m vain like that.
Aw thank you 🙂
Boyfriend is currently howling with laughter at your book so he’s gonna write you a review when he’s done. He keeps saying “Jane, Jane, have you read this part?” You have a new fan.
I’m serious though. It sounds like you’re having a bit of a rough time with it…
Ha. Thanks. Glad to hear that he’s enjoying it!
It is quite bad, whatever it is. On the up side, I’ve had several pelvic exams and who doesn’t love a good ol’ pelvic exam? Okay, I shouldn’t make jokes.
He’s not just enjoying it, I had to hang up on the phone to my mother because he was laughing so much I couldn’t hear her. Laughing with you, I might add. With.
With. At. I’m happy either way Janey.
Smashed it. Good luck! 🙂
Thank yoooou! It would be totes amazeballs if I was shortlisted. Okay, I don’t really say that.
When will we know if you’ve won, and more importantly, when and where is the celebratory party? 😉
My chances are pretty slim, or non-existent to be exact, but if you’re not in it and all that! I will keep you guys updated 😀
If I do happen to even be shortlisted, I will throw all of us a crazy (virtual) party 😀
I hope that you do get short listed – or better! You deserve it!!
It would be amazing. And if I could nominate you for an award I would. Maybe the academy will let me?
Damn…I week late and a dollar short. I hate when I get behind. I totes would have hooked a sister up, tho. ❤
We all good, gurrrl 🙂
Did you win? Or place? Or show? Or get a nod?
I made the long list anyway 🙂 high five!
YES!!!!
congrats on getting on the Long List: http://www.blogawardsireland.com/best-humour-blog-long-list-2/
Thank you 🙂 I assume you did also? Although I just assumed everyone did, oops! Best of luck!
yes, i’m up for the Diaspora category. They need judges by the way if you’re interested
Oh that’s a good idea but I’m so disorganised. Maybe next year!
