This week I was lucky enough to be shortlisted in the BMB Brilliance in Blogging Awards in 'Best Fresh Voice' - which is a category for new bloggers. On hearing the news I was obviously thrilled, but that quickly turned to terror when I realised I would have to post something worthy of the nomination - otherwise it's a bit like getting caught with your trousers down (or as my fellow nominee over at Alexander Residence noted 'it's like being in an accident without matching underwear'. Ha ha ha I laughed - as if any of us have matching underwear!)
So I thought about what I would post - A Dear Santa Letter?, The Annual Marital Argument whilst decorating the Christmas Tree, The Joys of Blogging...To be honest I was getting my non-matching knickers in a bit of a twist so I decided to throw caution to the wind and act like I'm funny with:
My Christmas List of Alternative Carols
Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas - Just don't get too pissed in front of the in-laws.
The Weather Outside is Frightful - I just slipped on my ass in front of the neighbours.
Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer - Was an alcoholic.
Santa Claus is Coming to Town - Lock up your daughters.
I Saw Three Ships - Then I realised it was just one and I'd drunk too much.
The Little Boy That Santa Claus Forgot - Was actually on the naughty list.
Angels We Have Heard On High - Where'd ye get that weed?
The First Noel - Was Edmonds, then came Gallagher.
We Three Kings Of Orient Are - Lost. How did we end up in this dump?
God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen - Sleep it off on the sofa you drunken fools.
Santa Clause Got Stuck In My Chimney - Fat Bastard
Oh dear - I think I may have blown it....
(Oh and thanks for all your lovely votes - you really are very good looking you know). x
