Well, I'll Be Darn...

Have you ever Googled your name? You should. I do every so often just to see what pops up. You'd be surprised by the things you'll find. I've heard some real horror stories from other's who find their name associated with all kinds of stuff. Thankfully, my name is mostly associated with blog and forum comments. Which brings me to this reason for this post... While Googling my name today, I found a post on Romance Bandits announcing me as the winner for their New Years Booty drawing! Woo-hoo! I don't remember entering this, I think if you left a comment on a post (don't know which one), your name was put in for the drawing. I think I won a Borders gift card, but I don't know for how much. Isn't that just the greatest? I think so. The announcement, which was for a New Years drawing, was posted on the 13th of this month, so, I'm not the only one lagging behind. :) Needless to say, I've already emailed my snail mail info to the contact person, and I'm ready to shop! Woo-hoo! Isn't Google great?

Now that's pretty cool to Google your name and find out you'd won a contest. :o)

When I Googled mine, I found a couple of my articles linked to pople's blogs or websites under Resources.

I like that my name isn't too common. I've found one scientist and somebody in the Italian government with my name.
