Okay, I admit it. I am an utter and complete loser. Prizes for ‘Thon ’06 did not get mailed. Because – well – I suck. I fully and truly admit that. However! I want to make good on those. Despite moving and misplacing everything I hold dear (damn you boxes!!!) – I have managed to find all of the journals which were won from last year. I amaze myself! So, in no particular order, here is what I remember from last year. (Aided by sticky notes on the journals and by the prize page template in my EE. I <3 EE.)
April cleaned up last year. She won three prizes. She was a font of information! Below are the prizes she won.

(Actually, I admit it. I cannot, for the life of me, find this blue one. However, I have a yellow one which is in the same vein which I will send out instead. Update: I found the blue one! Yay!)
Sarah won this Irish Journal.

Rambler won this journal, which I bought in Costa Rica and is made, partly, from banana leaves. Very cool.
![]()
Kentucky Girl won this durable, fabric-covered black journal. I bought it in Australia. I’m weird. I know.
![]()
Suki won this felt green journal, ever so wittingly labeled ‘Journal’ on the front.
![]()
And that’s what I have for prizes! (= The teddy bear *did* get sent out last year. I did not forget that one. Betty won that.
Anyway – I’ll be trying to contact all of these lovely people to get their addresses to send out their prizes. Yes, I’m a year late, but – I figure – better late than never? (;
If you know where they can be reached – drop me a line and let me know! burningwords at gmail dot com
Edit: I managed to find contact info for everyone but April. Anyone know how I can get in touch with her? O_o
Edit #2: Suki’s and Rambler’s journals were mailed today! Kentucky Girl opted to throw hers back in the kitty for this year. I think Sarah is of the same mind, but I emailed her to be sure and have not yet heard back from her. Still trying to get in touch with April.
