I Call This One "Tragically Whimsical"
Prize winners are in the process of being chosen in a very fair-and-square manner. It is taking longer than I thought it would, mostly because there are a lot of sites to vet and I'm easily distracted by online shopping, candy, e-mail, candy, candy, and candy. (You'll notice that housework wasn't on that list).
I'll privately contact the chosen few over the weekend and then announce them here (if they don't mind) on Monday!

FINALLY. I guess I can wait until Monday :-D
I like the button. But I need a Star Wars one too.
I liked Will Ferrell in "Elf," but I don't know that I could look at his likeness in my sidebar for a whole year...
But if I must, I must. I shall patiently wait and see if other ideas evolve. :)
Yay! And, love the buttons.
Since I am convinced that I am going to win, you may as well just publish my name and link now, I am very much looking forward to the glory and recognition.
Pleeeeaaase, choose me, pleease!!
Oohh...can we put a gun in the elf's hand? I liked the gun idea. *evil grin*
I can't wait to see the winners!
Oh, candy. Me, too. ME FREAKING TOO. ;)
Hi Eden, just wanted to let you know that I did post every day in November, but my blog may not reflect that. I had to delete some posts (well after they were published and read) due to family concerns. I hope that doesn't disqualify me from a badge!
Thanks so very much for hosting :-)
Thanks for the badge. It was definitely hard-earned. I will do it again. Why is beyond me ... it's not easy but worth the outcome.
Oh, the souls I would sell for a custom masthead.
Wait, you have candy?
Buttons!!!!
*claps hands with glee*
(after 30 days I am a drooling idiot, it's true)
Candy...that's how I made it through the 30 days, yep! Candy...lots and lots of caaaannnndddddyy.
Kewl buttons.
Thanks!
Hooray! A badge! I always wanted one.
There's CANDY? Why didn't you say so?
Pass it here.
They're lovely, thank you! It was great fun!
*sits and tries to figure out how to make the button work*
*feels like a newbie*
my co-blogger is convinced that she's won the turkey painting.
that may be will ferrell as elf, but it certainly looks like alan thicke to me!!
Love it! My sidebar proudly proclaims my accomplishment. Sweet.
I, too, am convinced I will win. I MUST win. Something would be horribly askew with the universe if somehow, by some travesty, I did not win. So I will win. I just wanna know WHAT! So click me, pick me, and name me WINNER! WHOOOOOO! ;-)
:) Pick me pick me!! :) And I am so putting that button on my site. Teehee.
I managed 30 days w/o cavities. My dentist will be very unhappy. I will not refuse belated deliveries of candy, however. Thank you very much for the badges. The Elf is my Forever Friend.
Peace.
NaBloPoMo was a great idea - I really enjoyed the challenge and the bonfide excuse to blog every day. Loved the writing but had to let a lot of the blog socialising slide to have the time. Now I need to catch up on everyone elses blogs.
Thanks for all your hard work - hope you can manage to do this again next year - I'll be up for it.
me likey buttons - and so festive - Sweet!
Love the buttons! So festive! So cute!
Thank you for being a catalyst. For working hard, and neglecting much of your life for this project. I don't think any of us knew it would take off the way it did. Yes I posted every day, through the loss of my job, a sick child, a new job with exhausting hours,losing my medical coverage, being too broke to buy toilet paper...through LIFE. I've already "won", for through this experience I've come to know people on the other side of the world, and just across town. Friendships impossible without a crazy lady who said one night..."NaBloPoMo!"
So Thank You again Eden, it's been a joy.
Hey, would it be asking too much for a button for people who came really close to posting every day?
Like a "Yay! I Almost Did It!" or "I Did It! Oh, not Really" button? With like a runner falling down on the track before the finish line? Because that's all I qualify for.
As usual.
I totally agree with Erin. We need a button for the Almost Did It gang. Those of use who really, really tried, and posted 29 days (with sometimes more than one post!) but got lured into missing one single day by a beautiful bottle of wine. Yes, we need a button also.
Yay candy!
I know I couldn't have made it through the month without it.
Love the button! And now that my Internet connection has been restored and I don't have to rely on the pathetic 30 free minutes of computer time offered by my township library, I can actually install the button! While eating chocolate chip cookies baked by me because what else was I going to do with NO INTERNET in the house?
(I should get a hardship prize for dragging three children to the library two days in a row just to get a post up!)

I made a Don Rickles I-Did-It sidebar button! You can see it in the sidebar of my blog, or you can view it here!
Amy, I totally LOVE your Rickles button!
(Rebecca from sporky.net, still having trouble posting from Blogger.)
I've had a lot of fun visiting new blogs through NaBloPoMo, although I think YOU deserve an award for wading through the 60million blogs that was NaBloPoMo this year. LOL! Good luck! Don't forget to surface long enough to feed your doggy!
(er... and the kids, of course.) ;)
I agree -- you did a great job organizing this, let alone blogging every day yourself.
You have probably already been by my site (A Prairie View), but could you take a look-see again? I posted my stats for November. Not only did I blog every day in November, but I also.....

I realized this morning that I closed my blog to the public last night. Just in case, it's open again. LOL Lack of sleep due to teething baby will do that sort of thing to you.
Thank you for the button to post. I think that I can even put that up is a testament to my perseverance. It was interesting.
I had a blast posting every single day. I wasn't sure if I could do it, but I did. I even posted the day my husband had spinal surgery. How about that? Thanks for including me in on NaBloPoMo.
w00t! i won a supercool prize! a prize that will shock and appall my mother!
Loving the Elf Icons!
It was neat to join in and read blogs I would have not found on my own.
Sigh... I keep waiting to read in my email that I have won the prize being given by Kerflop. All to no avail. I have recieved nothing in my in-box but spam and that can't be right! Can it?
Oh.
a post a day didn't keep the dentist away - I made my last nablopomo post at some unearthly hour of the morning before I headed to the nearest city for dental surgery
home now, but in pain, puffy face, bugged out on codeine, and checking my email every few minutes to see if there is anything to smile about in the midst of all this dental trauma
Congratulations to all the winners, I've enjoyed going through many of the blogs and of course because I'm such a goob I say they are all winners in my eyes :o)
Is it okay to use the Don Rickles badge? I'd love to use it if you don't mind.
I think so, you'll have to ask the Rickles-badge-maker.
I forgot it was no longer November and that I wasn't posting every day until yesterday!
'Twas fun, but methinks I'll go back to my usual 2-3 times a week as need arises. 'Tis difficult to make up for slow news days in Classics!
I love the badge! I'd love it even more if I'd won! :)
PS (and to green t-shirt specifically), I posted the Don Rickles badge so people could use it if they wanted. I'm not uber-possessive of it or anything, I promise!
OK, it's no Don Rickles, but I made a gun-themed success badge.
Thanks for the button Amy!!
You never post anymore. What happened?
I had fun with this, posting every day. Thanks for doing it! (I was never sure what else I was supposed to do -- whether I was somehow supposed to check in or let you know I'd done it all 30 days, so if I missed out on prizes, my bad. But if there WAS something I was supposed to do to let you know, would somebody say what it is? So I'll know next year, of course!)

You should get an award for the most links in a single blogpost. Seriously. Can I get you a gift cert for a hand/ neck/shoulder massage or something??
Oh, well, it was fun even if I didn't win! Just to know I could respond to a challenge and post each day was a revelation to me :-) I'm usually not one for challenges! Thanks!
