Nominate Lela For the ‘Stop, Stop, I’ll Pee’ Award
Last week I received a message from an account exec at a PR firm who represents Poise pads. (This is what happens when you write publicly about your ‘issues’.) But, hey – it’s an award and I’m not really so picky. Also, the message encouraged self nominations. But the real reason I want you to nominate me is because the prestigious Poise Passion award includes ‘an exclusive performance by Grammy-Award winning musicians and activists, the Indigo Girls!’
Hello? A semi-private concert with Emily and Amy? Sign me up! Learn how after the jump.
I’m asking you all, if you love me, to nominate me for the Stop, Stop, I’ll Pee Poise Passion Award. Tomorrow’s the deadline and here’s the link to the form. I get to take a friend to the awards ceremony in Chicago, so after you’ve nominated me, leave a comment here and let me know you want to be my friend.
According to the Call For Nominations, The 2009 Passion Award Winner will be:
- A Survivor – A woman who has overcome pelvic conditions through personal effort and found strength through pelvic fitness and lifestyle changes.
I always make sure to empty my bladder before chillin’ in front of Comedy Central. And I’m doing a Kegel right now.
- A Pelvic Floor Evangelist – A woman who is willing to share her story, inspires others, teach through her own experience through harnessing her pelvic power.
Some people call it over sharing. Did I ever tell you about the time I laughed so hard I peed on my kid?
- Available to attend the Below the Belt VIP reception and anniversary event, with a friend, and accept the Passion Award.
It’s on June 27th and it happens that I’m free. Are you? Just think of the swag.
- Available pre and post event for media and press engagement(s)
That’s me – tramping up the media since 2003.
In addition to the formal qualifications, it couldn’t hurt to mention that I’m fifteen minutes from a cheap, direct flight to Chicago. And maybe say something about my respectable table manners and abiding love of banquet chicken.
Nominate me (or – you know – a real candidate – whatever) by filling out this form.

Well I’ll just trot right on over there and put in my two cents’ worth. I can’t tell you how interested I am in the Pelvic Floor Evangelist. I’ve always thought the pelvis was the most underutilized source of power out there, right after that rocket fuel made from potatoes.
I won’t be able to attend on that day, however. I’ll be attending my nephew’s wedding, the anticipation of which invites more pelvis related humor than even I am comfortable exploring.
No laughing, though. Computer chairs cost a fortune to de-pee-ify.
Hey DeNae – True enough about the office chairs. That’s why mine is made of pleather.
Hi Lela,
I work for Women’s Health Foundation, who presents this award and just stumbled across your blog post. First of all, I love your title of the award – it almost made me pee a little bit. Also, I’d like to encourage you to nominate yourself (or bribe a friend with the possibility of a free trip to Chicago) for the Passion Award 2011. This year’s event will be held June 4th with Lisa Loeb performing. Go to our blog (http://womenshealthfoundation.org/blog/?p=1754) for more info. or shoot me an email! Thanks!
