Lady Luck

I am not a gambler... I never have been.

I am not lucky, I come from a LONG line of unlucky.. It's kinda embedded in our DNA.
We never win anything, we never randomly find anything on the sidewalk, in fact we are more prone to be the ass who drops a $50, for the person who has luck to find....

So when it comes to spending money to win money, I am not exactly an optimist.

I have never had any desire to go to Atlantic City or especially Vegas, I like my money in my pocket. If I am going to spend that amount of money, sorry let me rephrase that, if I am going to hand over that amount of money to a stranger, I would just rather find someone who ACTUALLY needs it ( like my bank account) and give it to them.

My husband on the other hand, loves him some lotto tickets and I know its all " Hey you never know" to which I respond, " Hey I kinda do" .... 2 days later still wishing you had that $20 right?

Anyways that brings me to this weekend... The big $10,000 raffle at the firehouse. The tickets are well, comparable to the Golden ticket on Willie Wonka, without the crazy nut job giving you a tour with creepy orange midgets. But they are very coveted.

It's $100 each, I think only 200 tickets so your "odds" are pretty good, according to Pat. I keep trying to tell him we also have Madam Unluck stacked against us, so no they aren't & I would rather the $100.00 but again I get the "hey you never know" & "$10,000 would really help us"... Help us, it would be to us like winning the million but I keep that to myself.

Here is how it works people.. Money GOES to MONEY. And on the rare occasion that it does not.. Well we have all seen the E true Hollywood Story of " I won the Lotto" right? Never ends good.

Anyways here's hoping that my DNA has not effected Pat's .... Wish us luck, cause I KNOW we need it.
