So something a little crazy happened to me last week! On a particularly uninteresting afternoon, I stumbled across a hilarious post over at Smart Bitches, Trashy Books — one of my favorite blogs about romance novels, reading, and just life in general. The talented Sarah was hosting a David Hasselhoff caption-writing contest — basically, slap a funny caption on a picture of the Hoff and the funniest would be crowned victor!

By some crazy twist of fate, I won! And what did I win, you may ask? Well, I could tell you . . . but that wouldn’t be nearly as much fun as showing you. As my friend Brandon and I often discuss, I know that should I ever run for president or find myself some mild-mannered celebrity, all of these photos could come back to haunt me in the pages of People magazine or on embarrassing still-frames on CNN . . . but I’m willing to take that risk. All in the name of comedy.

I would like to thank my partner-in-crime — my sister Katie — for her ingenious help in staging our Sunday Hoff photo shoot! And to Sarah, of course, for my awesome prizes. In addition to my Hoff wig, T-shirt, necklace and wristbands, I got a Hoff air freshener (nope, I haven’t smelled it yet!), some love dice, a ring, a bag and a coffee mug. The mug makes going back to work after the holidays slightly less daunting! . . . But only slightly.
