Big bombshells

I woke up this morning feeling patriotic. Why did I feel patriotic you ask? Well, the answer is simple. My contest has come to a close. It is now time for me to purchase a $25 American Express gift card for the winner. (I know. If I were truly prepared, I would already have it in my hot little hands. I've tried to find a $25 one for the past 3 days. NO. STORE. I. WENT.TO. HAD. ONE. Very frustrating. I finally got smart and called one before I drove all the way there and they thankfully had one. I will try to get it tomorrow.) By purchasing the gift card, I'm helping out our troubled economy. My simple act might just be the catalyst that turns us away from a recession. That makes me feel very patriotic. Thank you all who entered. Now, on to the first bombshell.

The big winner! My lips are numb from trying to make a drum roll sound.

Kristina

Now before the accusations start flying that I rigged it because tomorrow is the Meet & Greet and I just wanted to look the best, the answer is NO. She just happened to be random enough to win. On to bombshell #2:

I'm not going to be able to attend the Meet & Greet. So, I won't even get the opportunity to look great in front of strangers. I'm sorry. We've had some things come up and although they will be happening later in the afternoon, I feel it's necessary for me to skip. So, Kristina, you just tell me how you would like to get your fabulous gift and I will make sure that you get it.

Thanks again to all who entered. Just by leaving me a comment in the hopes that I would give you free money, you have made me feel very special.
