From The Contest Queen

I am very excited because tomorrow we are going to meet the Barenaked Ladies!

As I have been very busy with the launch of the American Edition of my book, my entries slowed down to a trickle. One Friday I decided I needed to catch up on all my email. Open one at a time and take action upon each one. Many e-newsletters had contest links in them. When I went to the Kidding Around Toronto website, I noticed there were several daily entry contests that I had not entered. The one to meet the Barenaked Ladies was ending that day. I thought, “Darn! I missed the whole thing.” Then I thought, “What kind of a Contest Queen am I if I am not going to throw at least one entry into the hat. It only takes one to win.” So, I entered myself once and my husband once.

The next night Craig and I had a rare date night. We snuggled on the couch watching a movie. Afterward, Craig went to his computer to check his email one last time before we went to bed. He discovered a congratulatory email stating he had won the Grand Prize. I danced around the bathroom for a good 15 minutes while I got ready for bed.

Tomorrow we are going to their CD signing at Chapters. We get a copy of their new CD Snack Time, we get front row seats and an opportunity to take photos with them. I really like the fine print in the rules: All adults must be accompanied by a child.

Remember, it only takes one to win!
