Not surprisingly, Van City’s sexy and savvy blogging community is making headlines again. This time with the 2008 Canadian Blog Awards. The first round of finalists are up and at my count there are 20 different Vancouver blogs in the mix. A few nominated in several categories.
One Sexy In Van blogged about boy, hummingbird604, has been nominated in a whopping three categories – Best Blog, Best Local Blog, and Best Personal Blog. Congratulations Raul! Obviously your typing is just as enrapturing as the way you sashay your way through a room.
And of course, what sort of blogging awards would this be without Sexy In Van blogged about gal, Miss604. This Van Sexy darling has been nominated to two categories – Best Blog and Best Local Blog. I’d be shocked if we don’t see Rebecca in the final round of voting. Work it girl, work it – oh yeah your sexy! (In case you’re wondering, yes I’ve clearly decide to start drinking in the morning now)
Also nominated in two categories are Matthew Good in Best Blog and Best Personal Blog and VanCityBuzz in Best Local Blog and Best New Blog. Way to go guys!
So go and vote for your favorite blog. Round 1 of voting (based on my calculations) is from Sunday November 23 – Saturday November 29. Round 2 with the final finalist will be from Sunday November 30 – Saturday December 6.
Here are all the Van Sexies nominated (in no particular order) and the categories to which they’ve been nominated to! Best of luck and plenty of kisses to all the nominees.

Thanks for the mention of the Delete Bin! It’s been a lot of fun to write, and even more fun hearing what other people think about the music. I’ve had some great conversations through it, and I hope to get a few more readers on there to continue to do the same.
Thanks again!
