Dear Best Friend
You know how you have been wanting to show me for AGES how much you love and adore me, but just haven't found the perfect way to show me how much?
Well, fret no more. I have the perfect solution, just for you!
Vote for me in the SA Blog Awards and show me how much you care. Or else I will know you hate me with a white hot passion.
Click on the beautifully crafted handmade (made by someone else's hand) button thingy below and vote for me in the TWO (2) catagories I am a finalist in - Best Weblog of the Year and Best South African Personal Blog. It is the first and last category. Concentrate! Don't click the wrong darn button and pick someone else.
Vote now! Or else the fleas of a 1000 camels will infest your armpits and your bum will grow closed.
With much fondness,
Your Best Friend FOREVA,
Tertia
PS There is no prize for this competition. It would just be the satisfaction of having a decrepit old mommy blogger beat those young whippersnapper geeks at their own game. Go Momma Go!
PPS. You know, I have the rudest friends. I sent a little note to one or two of my friends, and these are the first responses I get back:
"i already voted for you AGES ago, so you can stick your email"
"Ja ok done – you whore"
"Your email is SOOO late. I voted for you about half an hour ago, so stop sending me best friend emails, otherwise I will take back my vote darling ;)"
"You are awful, bee-otch."
"How many donors do you have?"
" Dear Tertia. It will be an honor to vote for you in the best WebBoobs of the year!"
"I am out of the office until 17th March."
It was the last one that I found most hurtful.
PS Guess which one is from the Divine Dr H (my fertility doctor)? That man has a one track mind.
You are bloody hilarious!! Thank you for cheering up my otherwise bleak day. *mwah*
P.S. Voted when you first put up your post - clever me. Good luck, I know you'll win!

Have loads of ladies wanting to be best friends with me and I thought that maybe, just maybe I could let you be one too. Only cos you asked so nicely!
I even went ahead and voted for you.
What will the prize be if you win?

Heh, All I got was: "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ELSE in /usr/www/users/sablog/2008/server/vote.php on line 126", nice!

Okay, since you and I - some GROSS error must've occurred for allowing the likes of little old obscure bloggers such as myself to slip through the cracks and be nominated against seriously famous and brilliant bloggers such as YOU - are up against each other in one of the categories, but not in the two others, may I
shamelesslykindly and humbly use your comments section to request all of your readers to at least then vote for me in the categories that you AREN'T in (also by some GROSS error that must've surely occurred... what an oversight. You are so good, you should have been nominated in the best bisexual/gay/lesbian/transsexual/transylvanian category as well)? Those categories are Best Writing (Yes, ha ha, I know) and Most Humourous (well, this isn't even funny...)Please PLEASE PLEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEE don't make me beg?
