…also known by me as: “ITiaG,CISiB?:SitLotGaTE” published by Gifted Homeschoolers Forum (GHF). I love a good abbreviation. Simplifies things, no? Sorry for the delay in contest results, btw. My life is unmanageable. I blame the kids.
Anyway, I was finally able to finish the book I was reading, and its sequel, so I could get this contest put to bed. I meant to do the drawing last night…but I started the book, and then needed to know how it ended. It didn’t end well! Neither did the sequel!! I can’t wait for the third. My 24 hour accidental internet detox was successful, in case you were wondering.
That, however, is not what you care so much about. On to the good news, as well as the confirmation that you might be a loser. It hurts, I know. Keep reading my blog to feel better about yourself, your life, your kids…

…in which case you are a winner! Congratulations!! You can keep reading my blog anyway, to feel superior and stuff.
My process for choosing winners was easy. I opened an excel spreadsheet and pasted in the names of people who met the qualification criteria. I copied the names as many times as necessary, and my kids named 15 random numbers between 1 and 309. I deleted winners and my kids named 5 more random numbers, between 1 and 209.
Special Note: “Secret Identity” won, which is actually a long ago FB account I used for Mafia Wars. It was a cheap FB like in the early days, so I’m naming my own winner for that copy: Congrats to Carolyn K! Duh, she’s Hoagies. Of course she gets a copy. 🙂 Also, 67 happened in a confused manner, so there were two winners there.
N said it wasn’t so random, and not so scientific. Whatever. It’s also 23 copies of the book given away so far, instead of 15, and 8 winners are complete strangers to me. Cool!
I don’t hear any of the winners complaining, now do I? I don’t pay much attention to losers, because, well…
Aww. So sad. Loser.
Another Special Note: If you still want to win a copy, I will post about the Chicago Gifted Community Center (CGCC) giveaway later in the week.
Congrats, again, to the winners! I will contact you for shipping info. Please read the book and post your reviews everywhere: Amazon, Goodreads, BN…
My apologies to the losers. 🙂 Your cats still love you.
Maybe.

Jen, you’re always a winner in my book! 🙂
I’ll e-mail you for your address later tonight, unless you beat me to it and send me a FB PM.
Good luck tomorrow!! LOL

I think I’m going to have to use “My apologies to the losers. Your cats still love you. Maybe” in a sentence today (not counting this one). 🙂
