Holy Freakin’ Heck!

I’m not a superstar blogger, my free blog designs get me gobs of traffic, and some of those people stick around. Somehow though, the people who stick around here long enough to use my Blingo signup link at the bottom of my sidebar, are the LUCKIEST BUNCH OF PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. I’m always winning movie tickets that I just decline because I’m holding out for something like this.(Which, I’m claiming this one, I’m no dummy.) Because you people are way luckier than I am alone. Seriously. Are any of you going to Vegas anytime soon?

Anyway. Don’t hate me because my blog readers are the luckiest damn group of freaks on the planet.

    Interesting…..so you aren’t claiming this prize? Holding out for something bigger??

    I was earlier that Blingo has a banner in it’s sidebar saying that Pamela & a friend won $5000 on Valentine’s Day. Wow! That friend is you. Congratulations!

    Holy Crap! Congrats!

  4. jomama Says:

    Wow! Congrats! I was just looking at Blingo yesterday, irritated that I haven’t won anything yet. You and Pam are two lucky ladies.

  5. Meg Says:

    Wow! Congrats!

    Wonder why I never win :(

  6. nanann Says:

    i really was so hoping that I would be the one to win you $5000. Really, I was hoping for me, but that meant you would get it as my friend, so I suppose I was hoping for you too. The luck gods only cared about you though it appears when i prayed while Blingo’ing!

  7. stacey Says:

    that is awesome!! YAY!! I never win on that thing. i use it all the time too. oh well. its all good…at least i know people deserving it do win!! :) :)

  8. Stephanie Says:

    Awesome! My friend asked me the other day if I ever knew anyone who one and I was like, yeah well I know of this one person who wins all the time! Then, BAM! You get the big prize!

    P.S. If I ever do win myself, you’re my Blingo friend too!

  9. susan Says:

    Congrats!! I have NEVER won on Blingo. But I still have hope out there that I will!

    HO. LEE. SHIT. Does this mean you’ll be picking up the tab at I Love Sushi? Kidding, kidding, kidding. But super-huge congrats to you (and Pamela!) Think of all the Fresh Market runs that’ll fund!

  11. Beachgal Says:

    Well don’t hold your breath that I’ll win you anything, becase I am very unlucky. Congratulations! I keep hoping I’ll win ANYTHING from them, just so I can say I have.

  12. tiffany Says:

    dude,
    i totally read your blog every day, and so far…no luck.
    any day now, i guess.

    anyway congrats!
    i hope you’re more responsible than i, because my uncle gave me exactly that amount of money for christmas, and i had all of these grand plans of what i was going to do with it….but now it’s gone.
    i guess i do have two tangible things from it–my imac, and an xbox for my boyfriend (who i think has now disappeared into the tv screen)

    i’m sure you’ll do better than me.
    something tells me you’re far more responsibe.
    unless it comes to eating cupcakes, of course.

    I signed up with blingo through you… and I have two people who have signed up from me… still… nothing. I actually was thinking earlier… wouldn’t zoot just love me if I won $5000… cuz then she’d win it too.

    So I guess you better love on Pam.

  14. Jamie Says:

    WOOT!

    Just think of the Krispy Kremes that will buy! :)

  15. Mymsie Says:

    I signed up when you blogged about Blingo and haven’t won a DAMN thing. Poo!

  16. dee Says:

    And all I’ve won was a $25 gift certificate to Amazon. I was kind of hoping that I would be the friend to win you the $5000 too. Whatever I can do to help, you know. Congrats!

  17. Madame Pocklock Says:

    Congrats! That’s awesome. I’m still waiting to win some darn movie tickets!

  18. callistawolf Says:

    Crap on a cracker! Hell, at this point, I’d gladly accept some freakin’ movie tickets. I swear, I never win ANYTHING. Like EVER. Because while you are lucky lucky (and don’t think that having lucky readers doesn’t mean you are lucky because it DOES), I am horribly UNLUCKY. That’s just awesome, right there.

  19. Jan Says:

    Thanks for telling about Blingo. I had no idea it even existed. I have signed up and put it on my blog. Now, I’m just waiting to count my money. Or even a movie ticket would be nice. Anything. Really.

  20. mar Says:

    Awesome!! Congrats to both of you!

  21. Little Dutch Girl Says:

    Congrats! I am so happy for you.
    So, what are you going to do with the money?

  22. Randi Says:

    Holy Crap! I went onto Blingo and it said she won “15 seconds ago” and I was like, DAMN! That could’ve been me! then I saw she had a friend and I said to myself, “that friend must be having a freak attack and thanking their lucky stars.”

    DAMN YOU ZOOT LOL…

    Congrats!

  23. Janet Says:

    AWESOME!!!

    Actually, I’m going to Vegas to celebrate my 50th with a bunch of my friends…wanna come with?

  24. wordnerd Says:

    Oh my effin’ gosh! I needed to know this, because I signed on to your Blingo account a long time ago and keep forgetting to use it.

    This, my friend, should do it!

  25. chirky Says:

    Holy.

    Shit.

    Maybe I should put my blingo link back up and start using it. I won movie tickets once, but they sort of pale in comparison to FIVE THOUSAND EFFING DOLLARS.

    I hate you a little bit right now.

    But only ’cause I’m jealous.

  26. Pamela Says:

    THANK YOU SO MUCH !! Thank you for pointing me to Blingo.com. I read you Blog everyday and I so love being part of your wonderful family from afar. I had never heard of Blingo until you blogged about it. I figured since I’m always searching for something, I would go for it. I never expected to win anything - much less $5,000. This is such as rush because I never win anything. Unbelievable??!!

  27. Jem Says:

    Congratulations! I wish I could sign up but I’m in New Zealand :( And I was just in Vegas a couple of weeks ago! Damnit.

  28. Jummy Says:

    Congratulations, Zoot!

    When you get it please let us know all the fun stuff you do with it. It’s certainly well deserved!

    I’m still wishing this was available in Canada.

  29. Vali (penguin) Says:

    WOW!! I’m so jealous! I never win on Blingo- Blingo hates me. :(

  30. KARA! Says:

    Congrats! I noticed that they gave $5,000 away yesterday and was wondering who that lucky person was!

  31. Isabel Says:

    Holy crap…this is like the best thing I’ve ever read about on a blog. Seriously, I gasped out loud when I read that you have won. That is just awesome!! So please, make sure you guys do something super cool with the money! (A trip?!) And then please make sure you tell us all about it.

    You deserve this! :-)

  32. C Says:

    Umm, score for you! I’m totally jealous and not afraid to admit it.

  33. Amy Says:

    Whoa! I would have peed in my pants!

    I thought I was excited when I won a movie ticket, but this would be so awesome!! Congrats!!!

  34. Mymsie Says:

    Update: Your win inspired me to finally refer a bunch of friends. Some of them signed up and one of them won right away - so I did too - a $25 amazon.com gift certif. Yay! Miracles DO happen! ;)

  35. shy me Victoria Says:

    cool!!!

  36. allyson Says:

    Delurking to say that’s awesome-I signed up to Blingo off of your site, too. I keep hoping I’ll win big too. Nothing major so far, but it’s fun & free. Are you on the other sites like this one as well?

  37. LaDonna Says:

    Congratulations, Zoot! That’s awesome. I love Blingo.

  38. JB Says:

    Wow, could you give me some pointers , never won yet

  39. Dos « Distracted by Something Shiny Says:

    [...] Web using Blingo, you have a chance to win a prize. People really do win cool stuff all the time. Zoot won $5000! Why are you still reading this and not signing up? Get to gettin’! Posted in Big [...]
