    @crafster #cyberangel is my #1 guardian. But she eats all my Cheez-Its. And it’s okay.

    Nanner, be sure to cast your vote on Twitter, or it will not count in the tally. Also be sure to tweet to @craftster and not @crafster. Thanks! :)

    Yep! If you want to vote for this one, you do need a Twitter account. This contest is called a “Tweet Off” (a “tweet” is an update on Twitter).
