… Dorothy!

 Congratulations to Ms. Snarker over at Dorothy Surrenders – “a gay girl’s guide to pop culture” – for being named The Lesbian Lifestyle Blog of the Year! I really enjoy her smart & sassy commentary on homo-flexible celebreality.

    What she said. Classy, period.

    An honor and a pleasure.

  2. (pouting and stomping feet) sigh. ok then, congratulations to her. But you will always be #1 to me!

    Thanks all :) I accepted inevitable defeat pretty early on. I think the topics and content here on SBC are just too specific, they don't have the wide-reaching audience that lesbian celebrity pop-culture does, which totally makes sense that Dorothy would win by popular vote. Plus she's a fabulous writer, very amusing and fun.

    I was really thrilled to make it to the top 5, what an honor!
