After almost two months, 40 posts, 30+ comments, and countless ice buckets I believe it is time to bid Right adieu. I have to confess that this brief foray into the world of blogging has been far more entertaining and enjoyable than I would have ever imagined. It was an exercise that forced me to focus on the funny and the positive in the midst of the frustrating and the painful and for that alone it was a worthwhile endeavor.
I owe a great debt of gratitude to all of you who faithfully checked in to read a few paragraphs a week about my ankle – which still is rather astounding to me. I hope you feel you got your money’s worth.
Of course I can’t end this blog without announcing the winners of the ‘Webster’s New Word Challenge’ contest so they are as follows:
1st place winner of longest submission which incorporated all of the words: Klinger
Major Award: Concert/Soccer game attendance of your choosing
1st place winner of most concise submission: Becky

Major Award: dinner where I actually make the selection

Thanks guys. I wouldn’t have had nearly as much fun with Righty if it weren’t for you all being the most kind and generous audience in the whole wide web. Take Care.
Love,
Righty

While I'm glad that Righty is fully recuperated and no longer needs to blog to work through the pain, I'm sad that I won't having amusing blog posts to entertain me during my long work days. I think Righty needs a new blog subject... BC's going to have a brainstorming session :)
I'm so sad. You do provide endless entertainment. I suppose for now, it is not so endless. In an effort to bring cheer, I went hunting for the nutter sports girl column. Instead, I found this "great" quote on her husbands "reader mailbag" site:
Q: I want to go to the top of a really tall building, take a leak, finish, zip up, and then have my pee hit the ground. I want my entire pee to be airborne. Man I love beer.

SG: Yup, these are my readers.
aaaah....i just saw this post for the first time! YAY I win an award! Bring on the lunch date!
Glad you're healed up. Hopefully we can get you to reconsider the whole "not blogging" thing though.
