Contests

A contest and the winner is…

Announcing another contest!

For the past six months, I’ve been very stealth about something big.

I’ve been thinking about how to tell you this for a long while. It’s a surprise!

If you can guess what I’m getting ready to share, you’re a winner. (I’ve already opened my big mouth to a few of you. You know who you are, I’m sorry, but you’re automatically excluded.)

First clue: it’s not a second book (yet).

Second clue: I’m not getting married (yet).

Any ideas?

I’ll be giving away goodies from Babeland for this contest — plus a copy of Single Mom Seeking.

I might need to get creative on this one because I could have more than one winner.

For starters, here are a few of the prizes:

A pink vibrating Paris ducky for your bath

Would any of my male readers use a pink vibrating duck? (That’s what I thought.)

A penis cupcake pan

Would any of my male readers make “cock cakes”? (That’s what I thought.)

Super cuffs

Say what?

Thanks to all of you who shared your good news in Aleve’s contest to win $100 dinner at PF Chang’s.

The winner — picked randomly out of a hat — is Mom2Maddie99, who said:

“I met an A+ single dad today at a soccer party & I’m hoping he calls.”

Congratulations!

And do tell us: Did he call?

~~~

“A vegan alternative to leather restraints…. a pair of neoprene cuffs with nylon straps.” (Guys? Yes? I’m running out of ideas here!)

  1. A movie based on your book? :D

  2. Woohoo!! I am thrilled I won.

    Nothing yet from the single dad :(

    Here’s the deal…I work with his mom…our kids have played together before (back when he was engaged to someone else). We didn’t formally exchange #s last week when we ran into one another again. So I naturally assumed he would get my # from his mom and call…he hasn’t. I am about to take matters into my own hands…get his # and call him myself :)

    I am sure he would love to go to PF Chang’s…so maybe this was the kick in the pants I need to call him.

  3. I think you’re going to start your very own Single Mom Seeking matchmaking service! Makes sense considering how many of “us” converge right here! :)

  9. Mom2Maddie: Thanks for the update!

    Please, please let us know if you call him. You go mama! Get that man’s digits.

    How can he possibly turn down a free four-course meal at PF Chang’s… with you!

    To the rest of you: I wish I could say that I’d won a grant to live and study in the Caribbean for six months… not yet.

  12. Susan,
    Let’s just say that the only way a “new baby” could be on its way would be through… adoption.

    A great idea! And I could see myself adopting in 10 years… but not now.

  13. Contributor/Editor for a magazine?
    Aside from that, modeling or being in a movie . I am stumped.

  18. I think you have a new reality show that you are going to launch and it’s going to showcase the sex toys…close?

  19. Toni and RJ: You’re both a little warm.

    Dad’s House: I’m not allowed to have a dog where I live, or I might consider! (Although our kitty would be upset.)

    Vinnie: I’m very settled here in California. Not moving!

  20. Given the prizes I’m thinking it’s probably best just not to guess at all. My girlfriend would probably like the cake but not in my kitchen. ;-)

  21. SDM: That’s classic! “My girlfriend would probably like the cake but not in my kitchen.”

    Although my surprise does involve sex… it’s not quite as racy as you’re implying.

    Handcuffing a man and serving him cock cupcakes? What would I with the pink rubber ducky?

    Don’t answer that!

  31. I was going to say some sort of weekly public discussion like a radio show, tv show, or column, but I think those are taken.

    Um, consulting for a line of kids clothing or some single mom marketing project?
