Woke up this morning to many kind birthday wishes but the real question on everyone's mind, "did you win"? Time to get scratching.
The other day, I went to see the cheesiest movie I could find for a friend date with the lovely Brenda Alvarez. We saw Eat Pray Love. It was actually pretty good. Julia Roberts plays a travel writer who goes all over the world to find herself (nothing I could relate to of course:) ) but the best line in the movie? She's in Italy and she tells the story of a guy who goes to pray to a statue every day, asking it "please let me win the lottery". Finally one day the statue comes alive out of frustration to say "buy a ticket already!"
Well, if you plan to win the lottery, you've got to buy tickets, and I bought a bunch.
And at the very bottom of the stack we have today's card. Number 31. The birthday card.
Is it a winner? YES! Is it $20,000? no. only $2. Bringing the total to $36.
I did say I was going to win the lottery for my birthday. I didn't say how much. I guess next time I should make my plans more specific!
