duh duh duh! Five judges in all, right?
On the way home last night I was thinking that contests are not so good for the heidster; I get too excited then I have to work through the shame of spazzing out in the presence of others-not to mention the inevitable fear of failure.
P.S. Thanks for hosting Hennapalooza, it was great!

I am glad you liked Hennapalooza. I am sorry there wasn't much on the dancing front, but then if some people would have actually brought music....
No worries on the contest, eh? It's just fun. Though, in truth, I know exactly how you feel. There are five judges, maybe six, but I may just go with what results I have tonight. Can't keep postponing the results indefinitely. Let me just say that I am really pleased with my judging system. It involves a spreadsheet, which is not very poetic, but does make for easier quantification, and with quality judges and with a number of them, hopefully that will make for a good result.

A spreadsheet? Nice. Sorry about the music and dancing (BIG SAD FACE). I must admit, my mind was a bit scrambled from a socially hectic weekend; if I could do it over I would have gotten a good nap, then come to hennapalooza revitalized with the music!

Spreadsheets go against
haiku's eternal spirit,
Judge not lest you be...
