A Swine Flu Mask Giveaway!
It’s true. I am going to give away one of my prized Swine Flu Masks. Yup. No lie.
I have wrestled with whether to let one of my hand/mind created originals go. The struggle is not unlike Picasso might have experienced… We creatives… and our “work”.
However.
I want to be a resource for My Public. When I heard about the first celebrity fatality of this vicious flu *sniffle* I knew I had no choice. Please, if you have a weak stomach, don’t look. It is quite disturbing:
Thank you, Jill, for sharing this breaking story with me… US…
Friends. I am concerned. I care about you, and that is why I am going to give one of my *clears throat* unique *clears throat* Swine Flu Masks to one of YOU. This has nothing to do with Me. Oh golly… if enough interest is expressed… who knows what I might do. I’m a giver. But there are TWO things at the forefront of my mind as I think about this here Swine Flu and those there masks:
- Your safety. Your health. I want you to be Swine Flu free. I do. *nods convincingly*
- Your fashion. I can’t have on of MY Peeps goin’ out in public in a plain mask. No. You have a friend in me. *nods again*
Hithertohencetoforth… this Swine Flue Mask Giveaway!!! Here is how it will work… Decide which mask you would choose were you declared “WINNAH!”. If you have not seen the video, please take a gander and decide which mask is the best fit for you:
Now. Leave a comment here telling me which mask you would like, and why (the “why” part cuz it will feed my ego and my ego has been very, very hungry lately *chompchomp*)… Now. If you would like to increase your odds, you could Twitter a link to this post OR the video above, but if you do, please make sure you add @jennyonthespot in your tweet so I can verify. I will miss it otherwise, and then I won’t be able to add it! You can comment and tweet as much as you want, but since I have remedial math skillz, I will only count one comment and one tweet per person. Am I making sense? *blinks*
Legal: I got the masks over there at the Home Depot. All the pharmacies were sold out. So, not only can you protect yourself from Swine Flu, you can protect yourself from paint fumes and sawdust. Also, I have breathed in all of the masks. But that’s a bonus. Additionally, Lucy may have worn a mask or two as a hat. I checked for lice and we’re good. Lastly… the WINNAH! will also receive a can of glitter! That’s just an extra touch. I am all about extra touching. Um. That came out wrong. Oh, I will close entries at, let’s say noon on Friday… Ready, set….

Keep up on the ridiculous, the insightful, the always digressive…

Oh, how I love that video! All your masks were insanely creative, and if I was wearing one, you’d not see my smile as I watched that clip. I was born in Hawaii, thus, by virtue of my homeland, the hula mask seems the most appropriate for moi.
OOOOOOoooooooh! I want the hula one!!!! Because – due to the recent financial climate (and the bozars at AIG & wherever all galivanting around Europe with their bailout moneys, thank you very much!!!!) -my husband qualified for the annual conference in Hawaii but it was cancelled. So, now I am untravelled, untanned and at risk of Swine Flu!! A super fancy mask & some glitter would fix everything! …sounded good, but I may still be bitter…
Jenny….I am actually escaping to Cabo San Lucas to get away from all the swine flu here in WA! I am in desperate need of your sequin mask…AND…it’s use and value will not end with flu season as I will also wear it while I help my Beau with some major house renovations this summer. Won’t he fall in love with me all the more in your sequin mask???
I need the “how cute am I Harriet” mask! Had too many mornings of looking at myself in the mirror and wondering where my “cute” went!!! When the wrinkles seem to be increasing, Harriet will help me smile.
Cute vlog and clever masks.
give it
Please…ohmostgorgeousoffriendsMissJennyplease. If you select me for this honor, may I please have the gold glitter one? Why that one? Have you seen Austin Powers in Goldmember? I want to be able to walk around with that mask on saying “I love gooooooold!”
And the glitter…I want that too. pleeeeeeeeease!
First of all, can you BE any more creative? That’s my girl! They all rock. If I had to pick for reals I like the lips. They speak to me. And the super colorful sequin one. The glitter gold creation is stunning but I’m a little afraid it’s not safe to breathe through
Can you not just picture me in the sequin one? I can. I was born for that sequin one.
I can not enter and ask for a mask for myself, I just couldn’t. However, my youngest is all about the pink sparkly one. Oh yes she is! Alas this poses a legality. Is there a ‘must be 18 or older’ stipulation? If she is still eligible then her reasoning is: “Cause it’s pretty and colorful!”
As for the glitter, I have yet another question-have you evah found the perfect glitter for me? Ya know non-aerosol style??? Eco cool and what not…
Oh Jenny…do-er of good…queen of Glitter…humanitarian. I so need a swine flu mask. Think of my children. You cannot leave them motherless. Being that we live in Texas I am so close to epicenter of this horrible epidemic. Please think of the children. They ate the future. Let them lead the way… I digress… I so loved them all but the sequin or harriet are my faves. Though Trou and Noah loved the army guy one.
As much as I love Harriette.. and I do love Harriett, I love the,..no I love Harriett mostly of all.. you do know that construction masks don’t keep out germs,,even fat swine flu ones? love ya!
Poor Kermie. Poor, poor Kermie . . . *sniff*
There are many reasons that i should get the blond girl swine flu mask.
1. I have the swine flu and don’t want to spread it
2. My husband and son make really stinky farts. I feel this mask might protect me from some of their doozies.
3. I don’t usually make time to accessorize my sweatpants and t-shirts, I mean, totally put together outfits. I think the mask will do me up nice like that.
4. My daughter likes dolls. I could be her real life doll.
5. I am out of lipstick. With the mask, don’t need it.
6. I could wear it to hip hop class and people would be jealous of me.
7. I am a Russian spy.
Thanks for your consideration.
Of course everyone wants the Hula mask (made me snort), the Harriett mask (another snort)…oh, how I want her (but other’s have already requested). So, my third choice is the GIJoe army man Swine Flu Mask. That just cracks me up…
Sorry I don’t do the twitter thing…I will happily add your video to my blog tomorrow. Sorry, can’t do it today, it’s MY birthday, so today is all about me, not you and your kick ass swine flu masks!
p.s. I will trade you a really kick ass hand painted wine goblet for the mask ~ one with really cool dragonflies on it. I may even add glitter for you at the end, but then you couldn’t put it in the dishwasher, so I will put real white gold on it…that will SPARKLE!
Ohhh…me! Pick me!! I totally want the glitter one!
It will remind me of you…and missing running with you! We walked away today and Olivia said…oh momma, I want that girl’s hair…it’s so pretty…and soooo piiiinnnnkkkkkkkkkk!!!!
Love it!
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA! I love you, you big goober. I must say, I was dissappointed. I expected far more glitter.
I snorted copiously during the watching of this video.
No mask needed, the laugh was enough! I watched it over at Mango Girl’s place The Hula was hilarious and the army men–funny, but what really cracked me up was the mini-lesson on symmetry
