Well, I didn’t win the New Yorker’s cartoon caption contest….again. But I do want to thank all the folks who took the time to vote for me. Muchisimas gracias to all. If the third time comes around, maybe it will be the charm. Now I’m going to go and softly bang my head against the wall…

You got farther (further?) than anyone else I know. But yeah, I hear you, it would have been such a thrill to have won.

I know. When I moan about being a “loser” because I came in third my husband pointedly reminds me that each contest has maybe a couple thousand entries. Kind of puts it into perspective. A little. 🙂

Plus you can always say, “I was a contender,” instead of, “I could have been a contender.”

Most people don’t get accepted into the running, so that says a lot right there. You should feel good about that — and keep trying. Maybe the third time will be the charm.
