I started this site two years ago today. It's amazing I've kept it going this long given my history of not finishing what I start. Truth is, I almost pulled the plug on this site back in May when we found out about Zed's diagnosis.
I'm glad I didn't.
I have met so many great, interesting, fun, and sweet people in the past two years. People I wish lived next door to me instead of halfway across the globe. People I would love to share a beer with.
I feel very fortunate to have made so many online friends. I truly appreciate everyone who comes by this place. You have no idea. Thank you all.
And The Winner Is…
Congratulations to Bite My Cookie, the winner of the Create The New Cynical Dad Tagline contest. I received many fine entries but hers was by far the best.What's that? You don't remember hearing about the contest? That's because you didn't.
About six weeks ago, I mentioned that I felt my tagline, "Proof my children will be using their college funds for therapy," was no longer funny because Zed was actually in therapy. I decided to run a contest where you guys would create a new slogan for me. There was going to be PRIZES! And FAME! Ok, maybe not FAME! But definitely PRIZES! The contest was going to start today, to coincide with my site's second anniversary.
Well, about two weeks ago, BMC sent me a slogan so perfect, so fitting, I had no choice but to scrap the contest and use her new motto for my site:
"That which does not kill us makes us more cynical."
See? It is perfect. Thanks, girl. For that any everything else.
