Superman - please bring my luck back

Tim Hortons Roll up the Rim to win = 0/10. (My mom and sister combined are like 0/18).... contest has been running for five days. Note - 10 "rims" in five days, thus averaging 2 a day although not a lot for some people - is actually a lot for me when not living at Western - a world where buildings have at least one Snot Roh Mits at your disposal (5-10 minute line wait included).

Maxwell House Online Contest = didn't win.

Bad Weather = no trip to Windsor for Sharon, and no trip to Toronto for Paula.

Price Is Right = watched this show today with my grandmother - not even playing for the chance to win real prizes as I wasn't a true contestant on the show - did I win in make-believe world anyway? NOPE!.... did Nana laugh at me - You bet she did!

Winter Storm + Recycling Day = one lost recycling blue box....one was embedded deep enough in the snow to not take flight with the storm - the other one - who knows if we shall see it again.... so long blue box - it was nice recycling with ya!

Although I cannot truly complain about the happenings in my life this week in comparison to the other things I've lived through and in comparison to other issues current and past that people dwell on === but come on - not even a free donut when the chances are 1 in 9? By the way - if you are hoping to win one of the ipods - your chances are not 1/10000 ... we know a guy who already won one - so your chances are now 1/9999 ... but I'm sure other people have won too....

The biggest disappointment about the rims though this year - you can't win a BBQ! Whats with that? HONESTLY.

actually actually technically speaking, if the odds go from 1/10000 to 1/9999, it's an increase in chances.

And if it makes you feel any better, I haven't won anything yet either. COME TO TORONTO AND I'LL BUY YOU A DONUT.

I'd like to come to Toronto - but make Mother Nature agree with such a plan!!! I haven't left the house since Wednesday - and today is Saturday!!

So I did really miss you that weekend, but we did talk about you alot... not in a bad way, more like "Paula would love this" "we should call Paula and leave her drunk messages" kinda talk.
