OWWWWWWWWWW! Ow. Ow. Ow.

It is SO not enjoyable when your head hits the keyboard. Stupid sheer exhaustion.

Ow.

So um, yeah. Let’s just Fast Forward to the giveaway. Before my head starts clunking some more. Shall we?

Since one contributor to my extreme sleepiness is stocking the clearance/going out of business stuff at my soon to be defunct store, I’m just gonna pull prizes from there. Oh! I did fire my webhost since they had my site down for over a week during what should have been the busiest time of year. Giving GoDaddy a try now, and so far so good. Anyway…..

I love me some easy-peasy-thank-heavens-its-a-no-brainer-cause-im-fried stuff.

Low Res Pic, Pro Quality prints. Other Choices for Winner too!

Low Res Pics, Sets are all Pro Quality

The winners (I’ll draw 3 – yes 3! names)… errrrr… prize recipients will get their choice of  4 8×10 or 5×7 Vintage or Pop prints in stock from my store… Those are just 2 of the choices — there’s a ton of other sets at my store to choose from too. Whee!

And yeah, I’m busted. I’m sick of the room they take up on my shelves here – and moving ’em on out. Pricing at cost, and giving away some too — what fun!

All ya gotta do is….

• Answer this: “When you’re exhausted beyond comprehension, how do you perk up when things MUST get done” and/or Tell me some of the stupid/silly things you have done in delirium. I swear I never once walked outside ready to walk the dog naked. Nope, not me.
• Do this by: Sunday, December 21th, 2008
• PLEASE keep Spreading  the word! Blog it, Tell your friends — the works! I’m amazed daily at the impact this project is having on people. I want it to be contagious, plus it fuels me to make it bigger & better!

• Check out the first batch of winners!

The exhausted, Chrysti

Are YOU one of the 10 Winners?

 

If you think, for one moment… that stating May 2nd the winners of the Caption Me! Contest would be announced was a lie .. well.. err… you would be SO wrong. It was a typo, yes a typo. That’s it!( Is anyone else now singing that commercial… it must have been a typo, a typo, a typo… ). Seriously though… I had every intention of announcing the winners then, but the time to format all the entries just wasn’t available to me.

Which is precisely why I decided to award more entries a prize!  

There are now 10 winners vs. 3!

Instead of choosing my favorite submissions (really, how is a girl supposed to choose) I used the list randomizer to select the winners – they are shown below in red! The 10 submissions chosen will be receiving a fine art photography print of mine, matted & ready to fit in an 11×14 frame! (Value of $30-$40.00). If your caption appears in red, please email me – khryctee [at] gmail.com – within the next week to receive your prize. I will notify winners if I get a chance — but it’s up to you to contact me so your prize isn’t forfeited! I’ll reply to your email with all applicable info. CONGRATULATIONS!
