Whaaaat? No, seriously. What? I, like, kind of won. OK, I didn’t win-win. I’m not going to get a trophy in the mail. And I wasn’t on TV. (Thank God for that.) But I was the NewNowNext Awards “Most Totally Rad Sickest Blog Ever” Audience Choice Award winner. OK, first let me say that given the big boy competition I had, I had totally written off the NNNA and didn’t even watch Saturday night (sorry, Logo!) I was out that night and knew that dlisted had already won the big prize, so I figured I’d go online Sunday morning to see who took home the Audience Choice (my money was on towleroad). But, lo and behold, when I came home later that night I opened my email and there were congratulations. And not the kind from the Cote D’Ivoire where the heirs of a rich prince needs to use your bank account to deposit untold millions. But the actual winning kind. Crazy, I know. 
(If you, like me, cannot quite believe it, click to watch the segment and keep an eye on the bottom left-hand corner. My fellow nominated AfterEllen ladies Bridget, Jill and 3Way all got shut out of the main NNNA, but also took home Audience Choice Awards. Watch the whole thing at logoonline.com.)
As astonished as I am at taking home the Audience Choice Award, I am even more thankful to you. That’s right, you. No, don’t look over your shoulder. I mean you. Thank you, thank you. Y’all deliver like Domino’s when it comes to this voting business. I should really tip better. What is so great about this honor is that it comes from you. Yes, you. Don’t make me go through the turning around, false modesty thing again. You know it’s all you. And, really, that’s what makes it special. I’m endlessly thankful and, quite frankly, amazed that you keep coming back day after day. So, thank you. You are the Most Totally Rad Sickest Readers Ever.
