Best Glimspe into Her World Award: Jenny (Omaha)
Based on my weekend in Omaha I have a real feel for how Jenny lives! We went to Hy-Vee, bought some half-priced books, watched some Ice Road Truckers, BBQed some food, and overall had a good time!
Most "Not like a guest, more like a roommate" Award: Pat (Baltimore)
My 5 days and 5 nights in Baltimore made me feel like I really wasn't even a guest at Pat's at all - it just felt like I was a roommate there for awhile.
Most Accomodating Award: Megan (Dayton)
Seriously, I spent a total of 8 nights over three weeks in Dayton. I stored a lot of my crap there, I left my bed unmade in the living room, I was in and out at very odd hours, and yet Megan was more than happy to have me!
Hated being a Host, but Stuck with it Admirably Award: Jack (Corpus Christi)
I am pretty sure Jack was not thrilled with having 5 guests staying in his one bedroom apartment for 4 days, and yet he did well with putting a grin on and giving us a fun 4th of July weekend.
Nicest Guest Accomodations Award: Amanda (Nashville)
My own bedroom, nice big bed, and lots of free air conditioning in the sweltering southern humidity? The best three nights of sleep in awhile!
Best Planned Activities Award: Adrienne (Milwaukee)
Who would have thought in Milwaukee there was so much to do? A softball game that had action, suspense, and romance, a spy restaurant lunch, car parking adventure, Brewers game, and best of all, Club Paragon! A very fun time with very funny friends of Adrienne's too!
Most Whirlwind Hosting Experience Award: Vilija (New Orleans)
Vil had so much planned for me to do in New Orleans, and we jam packed it all into about 40 hours! We went through so many parts of the city and saw so much (incuding the swamp), and I was impressed with how she kept us touring without tiring us out!
Coolest Apt Award: Bowen and Spoon (DC)
A top floor apartment on Capitol Hill, just blocks from the Capitol, with a porch, nice new amenities, and lots of unprotected wireless accounts to steal - I don't think it can be beat!
Best Storytelling Host Award: Clare (San Antonio)
Sorry but no one else has Clare beat on her stories. She has an uptight mother from Long Island (complete with accent), a penchant for dating Latino men, and she is a Zumba instructor. You just can't compete with that.
Shortest Stay Award: Kelly (Santa Monica)
I was only in her presence for about 12 hours, but it was still a fun trip with my cousin and in LA.
Thanks to all my hosts - I am appreciative of them giving their space and time to me as I dumped my way into their lives for a short period of time. I can return the favor if you are ever in Eastern Washington and need a bed for a night or two.
