Bought the Take5 promotion yesterday, hammered out a FP from the numbers I picked.
Was all excited yesterday because I knew we were gonna drive over to Connecticut to see a chorus concert put on by the college my daughter attends. My daughter is in the choir. (I was excited cuz I knew I was gonna get me some Lucky For Life tickets! The concert was nice, but L4L was the real reason why I wanted to go!)
Anyway, the wife got home later from work that we thought she would. So we rushed over there and I didnt stop to get my tickets before the concert. No problem, I figured. I'll just get 'em afterwards cuz I'll have to gas up the car to get back home. So we get to the college auditorium, and aint anybody there!!! So I ask a college coed sitting by the door into the auditorium "What time does the concert start?" She says "7:30" I said "WHAT??" Then I say to the wife, "You mean to tell me we rushed over here and the concert dont start for another HOUR???" The Wife sez, "She told me 6:30" I know what the deal is here. My daughter knows my wife wont be on time for her own funeral, so she scammed my wife by tellin' her the concert was at 6:30! So I'm thinkin out loud "Maybe I'll go get my L4L tickets since we got an hour before the concert starts." My wife nixed that idea... she says "You wont get a parking place." I kinda had to agree with that cuz that parkin lot was gettin kinda full.
You ever been to a concert that started on time? Me either. It's about 8:00 and finally things get rollin. It goes on for a half hour, it was fun, they sang a lot of songs from the Sixties like California Dreamin'. Then it's intermission. Oh Man!! Come on! I gotta get outta here and get me some Lucky For Life tickets..... Finally it ends! OK! "Let's go!" "Cant" The Wife sez. "Why not?" We gotta stick around a bit and talk to the daughter. Jee-zus! Finally we go. I find a gas station, pump 65 bucks worth of gas in that gas guzzler and go inside to pay for the gas, and most importantly, buy my Lucky For Life tix! The Dude sez; "Ya just missed it" "No kiddin?" "Yup. It's 9:45, and they draw at 9:40".... I didnt speak to her all the way home!
We get home, she says "What's buggin YOU!!" I tell her. She sez "Grow up. You aint gonna win anyway!"
"Oh Yeah???? If I do, YOU wont see a dime of it".........................
