Fish

A couple of years back I was searching for a novel, when I came across someone's personal web log. It was interesting, though not very well written, but I noticed it had links to other blogs. I started clicking.

And it seemed that most of these blogs had their own blogrolls, with other links in the sidebar. So I clicked on those.

Through an hour's worth of clicking, one site seemed to come up time and time again.

This Fish Needs a Bicycle.

From the first moment I was hooked. So inspired by Fish, I started up this blog back in November. In fact, I came very close to using 'Smells Like Fish' as my tagline, but, you know, that's just weird.

And even though I'm new to blogging, I am fully aware of the Bloggies weblog award competition.

And last night, I was so excited to see that Fish was rightfully nominated for weblog of the year.

And I want you to vote for her.

I can't offer much in return, other than my undying love. No really, I will love you til it hurts.

Alternately, I can also offer to write a post dedicated entirely to you. It will consist of a three-way between you, me and my Romanian wife, Alex, based on real life banter that occurs between us each night. 80s music, of course, will be playing in the background.

It will go something like this:

Me: Welcome to our home, you old so-and-so! Thanks for voting for Fish! Can I get you a Bartles & James?

You: ewww!

My wife walking by: Who eez dees? My leetle husband bring me sacrifice?

You: eeek!

Me: Oh don't you pay her no mind, she's from Transilvania, but she's not crazy! * me winking at you with one eye and whispering under my breath, in that drunken whisper which is louder than actual speech - Don't make any sudden moves!*

Alex: I think the symptoms are coming on.

You: *passes out from fear*

Me: Alex, how many times do I have to explain this? It's called The Simpsons!

Alex: Vlah-ha-ha!

Okay, so is it a deal, or am I going to have to throw in a couple of nude photos as well? Either way, you win.

Please, for the love of Spandau Ballet, go here to vote for This Fish Needs a Bicycle!

And let me know when you want that three-way. Two-ways are fine as well. Girls or guys, I don't care. I'll consider a one-way, but don't be surprised if I cry whilst doing so. I don't even know what that means.
