Getting Mail Is Awesome
If you despise zombies and enjoy Maurice Sendak, check out my giveaway.
Generally I’m not a lucky person when it comes to games of chance. It’s why I don’t gamble away my husband’s paychecks on a single game of blackjack or eat mall sushi. The odds just aren’t in my favor.Then yesterday, I got this in the mail…
Free stuff is so much better than all those annoying bills and car insurance offers I keep getting. These are my first ever online blog giveaway prize winnings, sent to me by Cyndy from DysFUNctional Mom.
Three weeks ago her adorable daughter pulled my name out of a hat, and boom! my life was transformed. I was suddenly a winner. That big invisible L on my forehead miraculously erased. I was pretty stoked. I laughed, I cried, I considered hitting the slot machines to see if things had truly turned around for me.
Instead I waited for my shipment of stuff to arrive. And it did, Saturday. Truly it was the highlight of a day spent in pajamas in front of our new game system, contemplating the thin line between pathetic and copacetic.
Now, not only do I have reading material for the next several weeks, but I can finally see what all the Twilight hype is about (I’ll keep you posted.) Also I can keep track of what page I’m on with the lovely bookmarks Cyndy sent me. Isn’t that thoughtful?
The only way it could have been better is if the bottom of the bubble padded package were lined with chocolate truffles and/or cookie pieces.
Yes, I am PMSing as a matter of fact. Why do you ask?
