No, really. I very rarely, (maybe 3 times a year), purchase scratch off tickets. So this evening as I was getting gas, I thought what the hell. It’s a dollar. I won $20. Yes, friends and freaky lurkers, I actually won something. The cashier asked if I wanted more tickets, I said no thanks I’m not risking it. This bought me an additional $10 in gas, pencils, pencil sharpener and a pack of pens. Needless to say, I was excited.

I still am without central air. My mom cannot get our neighbor to call her back. Which, in my opinion, even though my mom has known this guy since he was a kid, is bad business. She said she thought maybe he was afraid he would have to give us a discount. I told her-it isn’t like he wouldn’t be getting paid. I have 3 fans going here in the family room, ceiling fans upstairs, and thankfully, the old window unit my mom’s man-friend gave me running in the bedroom. One thing I cannot stand in this world-to be hot when I sleep. It’s old, but, it works.

I colored my hair, yet again, tonight. It’s definitely blond. It’s also going to have to have a toner put on it. I have too much red in my hair. I’m considering myself multi-cultural at the moment.

I have to contact Books-A-Million tomorrow. They called wanting to set an interview. Hey, it’s better than calling people in the middle of dinner. I have sent my resume to several other places, one which I really want, a help desk tech at a local company. It’s only a temp position, but who knows. If they like me, they may keep me. We all know I’m such a freakin’ likable person.

Oh, and, in addition to the pencils and school supplies, I bought a pair of cute sandals. The price sticker said $2.00. I thought-this cannot be correct. By golly it was. Now, don’t laugh. The sandals were in the girls section at Wal Mart. A size 3. I can wear a size 3 in girls. I barely have feet.

Oh, Pete-my DSL is acting up so I am sorry I was knocked off-line. The phone dude Friday left a message saying it was my phone lines. Apparently, some place outside near the box on the side of the house, the wires are taped. He said he recommended having “someone” put in new wiring. I thought this is what the “guardian plan”, which I’m paying like $4 a month to have, was for. Apparently I’m wrong.

Folks in blogland, I hate to have to end this exciting snippet of my life, but alas, I must. No, no, don’t cry. I shall return.
