Blogger Idol 2012 – Week 4: Judge Dread

Blogger Idol 2012 – Week 4: Judge Dread

So for this week’s assignment, I was paired with Martinis and Minivans, a similarly-minded blogger who writes about how her kids drive her to drink.

Blogger Idol 2012: Every Vote Counts

I’m not going to blame you. Let me get that out of the way right now.

I chalk up my poor performance to two things: I wrote about drinking and I wrote about drinking. If I were an ungenerous man, I might say my fanbase – such as it is – let me down. But I am not going to blame you. I said that already.

VOTE HERE. VOTE NOW.
