W000t. After many, many years of blogging I have been approached by my first legit, stand alone sponsor.

Keep your fingers crossed for me that I can seal the deal!
CONGRATULATIONS! Always good to hear great news like that.

p.s. how it worked in this specific case is that I reviewed one of the companies products after contacting them via a Ning for product reviewing blogs. They then approach me for an ad.
Congrats! I'd love to see your blog if you post a link in your profile.
