I Am A Rockstar!

I’m always telling my kids that I’m a ROCKSTAR, but, for some strange reason – they’ve never believed me. See, I’ve been buying these RockStar Energy Drinks for quite a while now and if the kids are with me – I tell them that, of course, that means Mom is a ROCKSTAR! Duh! What’s with kids these days, anyway? Don’t they know COOL when they see it?

Well, now I have proof – that’s right! I’ve got proof! Proof of my Almighty Rockstarness!! And it comes straight from the coolest crew in town – the IZEA Crew! Yep – they say I’m a ROCKSTAR and they’ve sent me an award to prove it. Those silly kids don’t know who they’re dealing with! Pshaw!

And that purdy little award is sittin’ on my desk right now – shouting to all who come this way just how COOL this dorky little mom is!

Wait a minute…

**shakes head**

“I’m a RockStar, this I know
For IZEA tells me so!”

Just can’t get that catchy little tune outta my head! Good thing I’m drinking my ROCKSTAR today to go along with the crazy tune in my goofy head! LOL!

Anyway, yeah – where were we? Oh – rockstar. Me. Right! Well see, the deal is, every month IZEA picks three ROCKSTARS. Actually in March they picked four awards – because the funny, goofy, awesome Ted, CEO of IZEA – got an “Above and Beyond” Award for constantly ‘Bringing the Awesome’! The other three awards are the ones they give out every month. One is the Postie of the Month (that’d be me), the Advertiser of the Month (Seaworld.com) and the IZEA Team member of the month (Grady Griffin from the Dev. team) – who is actually called the “Rockstar of the Month”….hey! Wait a minute! I’m not a rockstar? The kids were right?

Eh, well – I’ve been pretty cozy in my dork status for almost 39 years now – I think I can handle it. Besides – I’m a fun dork. Yep – that’s me – the fun dork! LOL! And I’m also the Postie of the Month for March!! And for this honorable distinction, I was granted this uber duber super cool award:

I just love those kind of award/trophy/doohickeys – the see-through ones, you know? (Yes, I know – I’m a dork.) But you know what – it looks uber cool on my desk! And even adds to my credibility as a blogger with those ‘normies’ in my life who don’t really get what I do online. A physical representation of this strange mysterious stuff I do online – which makes them nod their heads just a tad more knowingly.

Now that is not all they sent me – oh no – when IZEA sends you goodies – they send you goodies and they don’t mess around! I’m not kidding! Check out my super groovy IZEA desktop:

See?? They send all kinds of goodies!! And not pictured there are the yummiest of mints – in a groovy IZEA tin, as I immediately hid them from any scalliwags that may be coming home on big, yellow buses. (Problem is, I hid them too well, I have no idea of their whereabouts! That’s okay, though, one day they’ll be a lovely surprise, when I stumble upon them!) And now I have matching mousepads for my dual mice – one for the desktop, one for the laptop. I like the neat, orderly, prettiness of them.

They also sent me a new IZEA t-shirt:

It’s a nice, short-sleeved one, which is super groovy, since I already have a long-sleeved one. Come to think of it, I have another short-sleeved one, too. I just need a hat, some pants, maybe a skirt – I’ll just be “The IZEA Chick”. (Yeah, and a dork – I get it. Shut up.)

And they sent me something else that I am saving for another post!

Thank you so much to everyone at IZEA!! It’s really been great fun working with you over the last few years!!
