well, after a promising start, i’ve certainly broken the seal on losing at gambling. so far:
$36 spent on scratch tickets- $28 won. -$8
$25 spent online gambling- $0 won. -$25 and a whole bunch of ridiculous hassle.
next weekend is the foxwoods trip, but i figured i needed to knock another item off my list as february is rapidly coming to a close. in comes powerball. i mean- POWERBALL!! i bought 4 random pick numbers today at the scary 7-11 on washington ave (you know, the one where you can get sponch?), and now i guess i just wait until wednesday.
not very exciting at first, but then you stare at your ticket for a while and realize that the next jackpot is valued at $40,000,000. that’s some serious walkin around money. and you start to fantasize about what you would do if you won the whole pantload… sure i’d buy my mom a house, quit my job and go to medical school, go see the pyramids… probably the same stuff that all lottery winners do. but then what?
i could trade in all my regular clothes and start lounging around in something a little more fabulous. (that is assuming that i can buy some sort of pill that makes me never have to go to the bathroom- because the logistics here aren’t working for me).
i could be driving one of these puppies (just like dolly in straight talk). although i should probably hire someone to teach me how to drive first.
i could try do buy a date with this guy. as long as he promises not to wear this. (orange turtleneck? really?)
hell, i could get myself some diamond studded brass knuckles and go apeshit. (ok, they’re diamonique- but i could commission that shit if i had 40 mil).
you?
