WurdyGurdy – April’s winner
May 3, 2007
The winner of April’s WG is none other than my buddy Matt! Congratulations! Even before the WurdyGurdy, he would skimread my entries so that should I ever accuse him of not listening while we’re chatting (about my single state and other distressing matters such as the state of my hair and packing too much clothing for a weekend trip), he can prove that he knows what I’m talking about.
Teasing aside, it is his birthday on Sunday and what better gift than magnets? (We will disregard his conviction that his own house is overrun with magnets, due to his roommate’s obsession with magnets). All I can hope is that magnets from Jummy are special enough to cherish them as he would a newborn kitten (if not, we shall have to hope that he feels he’s too old to get gifts of any sort!).
