Please vote on our contest entries through Monday!! I will post the finalists on Tuesday morning!!!

Does anyone know champdaddy? They were our 3rd place winner in our Ad of the Year contest and they have yet to report to the front office, which is at misstiaemail@yahoo.com (Please put v. ads in the subject) so I can send them their prizes!! My LJ message box is inaccessible and i do not know if others are having that problem, so I don't want to send them a LJ message.

I'll have a few announcements to make in a week or so, if/when I ever get organized (well more so than usual, i am eternally disorganized!) !!

And just a FYI, dreamwidth is still invite code free! they said they would remain that way as long as their servers could handle the growth! (and yes, this is our MAIN HOME and shall remain that way until LJ kicks us out and/or LJ becomes untenable)...
