I Won the Lottery!
$3.00, baby. That's right, say my name, state of Washington! Pay up, bitches - one, two, three, right here, that's right. Give it all up, give me those winnings. It's about me tonight, Washington Lotto.
What's that? You all want to know what I did with my winnings?
Yeah, I'll take 2 for Lotto, and 1 for Mega Millions. Thanks.
Someday ...

when we got a lottery here, mike and i dutifully bought one ticket each week because, well, you know.
after about six weeks of not winning ~ drat! ~ we just gave it up. i'm sure had we continued buying tickets we'd be multi-millionaires by now. sigh.
but hey! congrats on your big win ;-)
WA has good odds. It's like, one in three or something. Granted, that third ticket is for $3.00 but hey, it pays for your next ticket so there you have it. Remember the little people and also the people who let you sleep on their chaise lounge. (:
WoooHoooo! Party!
By the way, in the Ridiculon silliness caucuses, Cowbell, with her presentation of administration nitwitery, is in the lead by two votes!
I just read your last post to my 2 lovely dogs, and after talking about it (I did most of the talking) we think you have a gambling prolbem...the puppies are praying for you...oh by the by..I gave into your demands and posted pics of the puppies! I feel so gay...I really look gay in the first pic but my outfit is shaby-chic
Three bucks will get you 3/4ths of a Grande at Starbucks. Nice....
BAB: me too -- I'm such a stingy lottery investor. The girl who sold me the tickets said a guy came in and bought $60 worth! And there was a $25 ticket in the "losers" trash cup. I can't imagine that. Me, $3 is my top allowance for lotto. That's like, whoooo, I'm getting wild here!
Hat: Yeah, I know it's unrealistic, but hey, you never know. THat Seattle janitor won the big millions ... who knows?
E: If I win the big millions, now that's going to be a par-tay. OMG you're kidding - I totally did that as a spoof. But it is ridiculous...
Boy: Your dogs pray? Dude, if I find out you've got them dressed in alter boy garb, it's intervention, now. I'll check out the pics. Actually I would be the world's worst gambler. I spend $1 or $2 per week ... IF I remember, that is. Probably one of the weeks I missed is the week I was destined to hit.
KA: I know, right? There's nothing really worth doing with the $3, than to turn around and take another chance. Which, I"m sure, they're well aware of. Because if it'd been $5 ... free coffee, baby, whoo!
Three bucks...hmmm I know of a bookstore that will give you a peek at some RAW activity; just make sure you wear shoes!
Ha ha ha!! My friend Cindy always says, "you know ... you have just as much of a chance of winning if you don't play." Oh well ...
I am hereby offering some free investment advice for your winning funds. After you declare your winnings and give Uncle Sam his $1.15, you should plow the rest into a share of Ford. I have lot's of them, and they feel like they are trading at around $1.85 per share...
Huh, everytime I go up north I buy a Wa. lottery ticket. I think, wouldn't it be a pisser for a Californian to win. Probably not the right reason to give the state a dollar though. I rarely ever buy lottery tickets here, unless it gets to 100 plus million, then it is worth it. I sorta sound greedy.
"Yippee! Fish and chips for everyone," as my dear old mom use to say. I have no idea what it meant but she was like that.
LOL! Congratulations!
Oh, cowbell, that could have been the down payment on Batman's surgery.....oh, wait , it is for 3 bucks? Well, in that case, you did real good honey. Steve buys a Powerball ticket twice a week....I am going to wallpaper his 600 sq. foot office with the losers from floor to ceiling all four walls and frame what is left over. Happy New Year my friend....it has got to be better right? Penelope had 2 teeth removed in December...ca-ching is how she barks now.
Realtor: Hmm ... is that the one with the red light in the window?
Red: Probably true. But ... what if? I wouldn't even need the millions. Just enough to pay off some of my house and refinance. That's all.
Tater Trick: Right, I'll get right on that.
Sageweb: Girl, I hate to say it, but if you popped up here for a weekend, bought a ticket and became an overnight millionaire, we'd have to fight, because I'd be going postal on your rich ass. Damn Californians. sigh.
Willym: Well, this would've bought a large fries. Or chips. Depending on what part of the world you're from. But it wouldn't have covered the fish as well.
Whim: Yeah. Whee. And I spent it all in one place, ha!
Rosemary: Ha! Good deal on the wallpaper. I'm almost afraid to ask, but ... when you say "cha-ching", how much are we talking? Tell me, I can take it. You can email it if you want.
I've never been into buying them myself, though I remember the last time David bought a ticket for our local children's hospital lottery, the man who never even won at bingo just happened to win $100,000.00! Go figure.
you are hilarious. haven't you ever heard "don't spend it all in one place" HAHAHA
(tears up losing ticket and throws the pieces on the ground.)
Dammit.
Good luck with the re-investment.
I am living a life of vicarious vice via your blog, btw. Voom!
Al: Holy smokes -- I'm all for charity, but I think I'd be banging my head against the wall for days on that one.
Monica: Yes, well, these days that's not so easy.
JP: Yeah. That's pretty much how it usually goes for me.
Allan: Thanks. I haven't checked to see if the new tickets won. I like to hold on to the fantasy as long as possible.
Ah yes - state lotteries. The poor person's 401K.
I will say this - a lottery scratch ticket paid for my first tattoo. Keep scratching girl.
I am convinced if I ever won a million bucks in the lottery I'd get a bill the following day from the state telling me I owed a million and ONE dollars in taxes on it..
Doralong cracks my $#!t up.
That is all.
I manage to remember to buy lottery tickets about once a month, if that. You are doing 3 dollars better than me so far. Keep it up girl and before you know it you'll strike it big. 5 maybe, dare I say it 10 dollars! Like you, I buy them for the fantasy value, not any unrealistic expectation of winning. Though Tater may be onto something with the Ford stocks.
..just remember who yer friends are if you hit the $10.00 jackpot!
We had two big winners in our city this past weekend.
Every time I buy a ticket, I daydream about winning for a week. A cheap price for seven days of fantasy!
