Winning Update!! What's up with all the clicking?!

I'm just curious... how many of you have entered one of those super-duper, massively long, click-til-yer-dizzy giveaways?!

I've entered TWO so far, so the torture I've participated in so far equals the pay-back.  Ha!

I don't know about you, but my thoughts start going 'round in circles something like this:
hey! there's one I already follow
click
click
click
click
at least I don't have to type my name over and over
click
it took me forever to think of copying and pasting that one time
click
click
did I miss one? *back up* *check* click
click
click
I really should clean the house
click
instead of click
click
but what if the NEXT click is the winner?!
click
click
click
click
this is totally stupid
click
click
I'm just going to stop
click
click
on the very next one!!!
click
click
click
oh, hey!  there's the END!!
click
click
click
click
and there's a BONUS 10pt click!!!!  Sweet!!
click
there.  That's all the Facebooks.  Should I do the Twitters today or tomorrow?
Tomorrow.
jajajajaja  Ok... that was as exciting to write out as it is to enter a long giveaway!!!

I'm a little torn, to be honest. The prizes on those big giveaways are too good to pass up, you know?  And somebody's gotta win... why not me?!  On the other hand... it is a lot like torture.

It helps a LOT for me when I'm participating at a blogger I already (pretty much) trust. You know?   I HOPE that my blogger friends know who they're hangin' out with. It adds a bit of confidence to the sudden expansion of FB & Twitter followage. 

I mean, I know the bloggers I'm hookin' up with for the book blasts - they're all awesome and I'm so happy to follow 'em, anyway. I'm paying attention to that sort of thing, big prize or no!!

This is in response to a comment I rec'd which cracked me up... after I'd just left a similar on another book blogger's site. *snort*
