lotto

Last night I had the same recurring dream I have had for 12 years (my working adult life) about winning the lottery.  It usually goes like this...

I win the lottery.  I am estactic, you can see this right?  I imagine and plan what I'm going to do with the money - lavish vacations (Hawaii, Egypt, Mexico, Korea, Mars), cars (Hummer - yeah I said it, Maserati, Camaro), homes (summer home, winter home, vacation home...), shopping (Paris, Rodeo, New York...here I come!!), donations (spend a little, give a little)... then I wake up.  And realize that in real life I haven't hit it big (yet).

I have been religiously buying lotto tickets.  Don't worry I don't go overboard, I limit myself to one lottery ticket a week.  My husband thinks it's silly, but occassionally I will win.  Last week I won $10!!  This will pay for lotto tickets for 10 weeks!!  In the back of my mine I think, if I keep buying, one day I will win.  It's a vicious cycle.  But for this small fantasy I am willing to splurge $1 a week.
