You put your success in the box
Wednesday, March 28, 2012 The moving trucks roll up to our driveway in 90 minutes. But this little quickie deserves mention...
When I carved out this little space of mine on the internet nearly five years ago, I didn't have too many expectations. I had never read a blog before. I figured this was little more than a glorified MySpace page. Then one day I discovered I had 13 subscribers. I was ballin!! And with that, came big dreams.
One of them was to get free Cheez-Its. Shoot for the stars, baby.
Two days ago, we finally got the keys to the new house. As we walked up to the front door, I noticed a box waiting for me. It was addressed to BusyDad and it was from a PR company representing a certain thing that I love.
Disclosure: I spent my own money on the paper towels, Craftsman toolbox and granite countertops.The best thing about success? You can define it any way you damn well please.
Quid Pro Quo: Cheez-It is running a “Vote for the Top Cheese” election, visit www.Facebook.com/cheezit. Voting ends April 5, 2012. White Cheddar always gets my vote, for anything.

Weird. My definition of success was when I went to the mailbox and found a box addressed to Redneck Mommy. When I opened it up there was a head inside it.
BEST DAY EVER. Taxidermic jewellery for the win.
However, Cheez-its would be a close second.
Cheez-It's give 3of3 tummy crabs.
It's a really long story.
WHITE CHEDDAR AND SNACK MIX! What the....
Maybe the next level of success can be real original Cheez Its!!!!! (sorry I was a little lazy lifting my finger off the shift+1)
That rules! I knew I was cool when I went to BlogHer '09, and Tanis was nice to me and my friend from high school who crashed our party
Cheezy snacks! that's awesome! Don't think we have that up here in Vancouver!
There's some witty comment about defining success stuck in the dark recesses of my brain somewhere... but I'm too sleep deprived to find it right now!
Congrats! ;)
can you PLEASE send me some parmesan garlic cheez-its, STAT?! lol or maybe wish some this way lol congrats on finally getting into the house! when i first moved into my house, we at least had a welcome basket from the builders lol i would have rather had cheez-its! lol
I looked at that picture and thought, "forget the cheezits, how do I get free tools?!" Guess we've all got our weaknesses!
I'm a fan of White Cheddar, too. I heard that there's this Smoked Cheddar flavor. Have you ever tried it?
Now that's what I call a house warming gift!
P.S.I'm heavily addicted to your blog!
You have a Cheeze-It bowl - I am so damn jealous.
