not a chance...

after i left school tonight i walked over to the corner store to throw some money at the tobacco industry. and as lately there has been some discussion of summertime travel, and as i'm not really sure how said travel will be financed, i decided to also throw some money at the PA lottery and i got two $1 scratch tickets*. i shoved them in my pocket, figuring i'd wait until i got home to see how the fates are feeling about me today.

then i got on the 71A, and there were my friends chris and regina. hey! friends on the bus? lucky for me! and today was a pretty good day (except that i saw a new therapist this morning and already know that i must break up with new therapist) in the sense that i think i really like estates & trusts now. and i saw on sandy's blog that she won some cash, so as far as i was concerned, luck was all around! great day for luck!

so rather than wait until i got home, i pulled my lucky T token out of my wallet (from my good ol' days of riding public transit as a resident of boston) and went in for the kill with my scratch tickets. and guess what?!?!?!

i won...a lousy dollar. big whoop.

fucking scratch tickets.

*this is indicative of why i'll never be a successful gambler -- i'm all about low stakes and low risk. know when to hold 'em? know when to fold 'em? yeah -- not this girl.
