Please.

When I started this blog in March, it was in a fit of writer's block on my "real" blog.

I was feeling like everything I had to say had to be censored - like I couldn't be myself.

So I created a "new" account and wrote what was supposed to be one post about my life in Suburbia, my horrid job and pretty much all of those other things you're not supposed to talk about at parties.

And I LOVED it.

So I wrote another one.  And I tweeted it (because, OF COURSE, I couldn't tell anyone about it.)

And you laughed and read and commented.  And the things I wrote and the things you said, were more real than some of the conversations I've had in 10 years.

So, THANK YOU.

Thank you for the comments and the feedback and the twitter praise because it's not ALL fun and games.  There are nights when I'm too tired to blog, too tired to think of something witty, too cranky to keep my venom out of my posts but I do it anyway.  I do it because I love to blog, because I love to talk to you about the things I can't say to the Stepford wives in town.

And I do it because I love the feedback.  I'm not going to lie.  I LOVE every single comment that I get.  It's worth every night that I stay up until 2am trying to think of something to write when the comments come flowing in the following day.

So I have a favor to ask of you.  PLEASE.

Please nominate Blogging Dangerously for a Bloggie.  If you don't know what a Bloggie is, it's a blog award.  A big one.  This isn't one of those high school, vote-for-me-every-day popularity contests.

It's an honest to god merit contest with winners as big as Dooce and The Pioneer Woman and others. 

Don't get me wrong.  I'm not saying I'm that good.

But there is a BEST NEW WEBLOG category for blogs started during 2010.  And this is my one shot. 

So if you've enjoyed what I've written this year, will you please nominate me?

You only have to do it once.

Do it here: http://bloggi.es

(note: the category is BEST NEW WEBLOG, it's toward the bottom.  You have to nominate at least 3 different blogs so add two others. You have to register but I promise they won't spam you!)

And if I'm nominated, I promise not to ask you for anything else this year  (except to vote for me!!!)

PLEASE!!!

One more comment then I'm shutting up. I'm telling everyone who will listen to me, so basically my mother, to nominate you as well. I figure that since I don't have a shot in hell in winning, you might as well. =)
