I tried to win. But I didn't win. I hated soliciting everyone's vote. Bugging the crap out of people to Vote for me! Vote for me! But I felt like I had to. I felt like it was necessary. Gosh, I wanted to win.
When the "I got picked last in dodgeball" memories began to taunt me, it just got me fired up. Pick me! Pick me! I know... I groveled, I begged.
And, ooh, I hated the way that made me feel. My competetive spirit appeared, soaring, like a hungry vulture.
Sometime during the voting process I was tied for first. But, lagged 42 points in the end. I just couldn't rally enough troops. (Where were my troops???)

This is like the opposite of 'my acceptance speech'.
Am I whining? No.
Am I a sore loser? Maybe.
Do I have a bruised ego? Yes.
This "Do Something Crafty" Challenge really stretched me as a crafter. It was so fun to be a part of! I really am honored to have been invited. *Thanks, Vanessa!* The concept of "having a bunch of crafters create something from the same materials" was actually something I jotted down in an "idea notebook" a few years ago. There was a show on TV a long time ago with that similar idea also. A gameshow of sorts. It was like a crafty cage match. I loved that show.
Oh my goodness, I think I have my next idea for a Crafty Night.
Congrats to Heidi, the winner.
And, thanks for letting me vent, my friends.
You're awesome like that.
♥
