Thank You (Unofficially)

The unofficial results for the 2006 Weblog Awards place Blue Crab Boulevard at number four out of the total field of ten candidates in the category of Best New Blog. I am not trying to be falsely modest here - I am stunned at that result. I did not expect to be nominated at all, and certainly did not expect to be in the group of finalists. I humbly thank every person who voted for me. To me, even being in this at all has been unbelievable. Where the Crabitat finished (unofficially) is even more amazing.

I have spent much of the past week or so trying, with the help of an anonymous angel, to keep this blog up and online. I wish I could have spent more time putting my best foot forward for new readers drawn to the site by the nomination. But I really wanted to thank the folks who voted for Blue Crab Boulevard and to congratulate everyone who was in the running for this and all of the other categories. Win, lose or draw, we all were out there for the world to see.

And I think that is worth thanking everyone who participated, whether as a nominee or as a voter.

Thank you, all.
