A Facelift and a Hillsworthy Giveaway

Hey yall, this little blog got a facelift!  (Nothing major, just a few nips and tucks.)  What do you think?  I'd been wanting to change things up, as my old blog was beginning to make me a feel a bit claustrophobic.  But being the computer idiot that I am, I avoided for months, afraid I'd cause my blog to disappear or blow up.  I finally got fed up enough yesterday and took the plunge.  Turns out a few nips and tucks aren't so painful after all.  I wanted something more open and airy, so hopefully this does the trick and makes my blog a better place to visit.

Anyway, I thought we'd celebrate my facelift with a little post-op giveaway!  Its nothing major, just a little something.  So, remember two weeks ago when I hinted at attending a celebutante's book signing in the Chicago area?  Well, apparently my hints weren't too difficult, because several of you smartypants guessed the starlet-turned-author.  Lo Bosworth!  I went days in advance to buy the book and pull a number, got all gussied up for signing, practiced the Kappa handshake to give to her (not kidding), and then wouldn't you know, she cancelled a few hours before the event.  She was feeling "under the weather."  Since she's my Kappa sister, I'll give her the benefit of the doubt, but to say I was bummed was an understatement.  The biggest reason I was so bummed wasn't because I couldn't meet her, it was because I had purchased an extra copy of the book for her to sign for one of my lovely blog readers!  Boo for good intentions not working out as planned.  But, since I still have the book, I thought I'd go ahead and give away a copy of The Lo Down, sans Lo's signature.

For this giveway the rules are simple: you must be a follower, and you must leave a comment.  That's it, easy peasy.  As long as you're a follower via Google connect and you leave me a comment, you're entered.  If you want to check out more about the book or Lo, you can visit her website, and if you're a Hills/City/Laguna addict and don't know about the blog Hillsfreak, head over there pronto; its addicting!

The giveaway will close on Friday, February 18, 2011 at 11:59 pm, and I'll announce the winner later that weekend.  Happy almost-weekend pretties!
