yeah i never win anything...i just tend to know the people that win.
so i came home the other day from being at my dads house all weekend, and my mom tells me that while i was away, she won a 54inch screen tv, a vcr, and a dvd player.
I just thought it was awesome because i wanted a dvd player and now we have one..but..I would like to win a prize...it just never seems to happen that way.
anyways i just thought it was exciting so i thought i would share the news..

now all my mom has left to do is win the lottery..and wouldn't that be heaven...

i won a football when i was in 4th or 5th grade. i think i won a couple of bucks on a scratch ticket once or twice. i got a free tape (it ended up being country music so it was destroyed) from some drink...and i think i won something else but i can't remember what.

not at all!

Actually, its not that i don't win anything, its just that i used up all my chances to win.
One weekend when i was little we went away up to Rice Lake to go camping. Well while we were up there, i won our nightly ritual of playing yatzee with the family, i won the fishing derby, i won the turtle race, and i also won who caught the biggest fish out of my whole family. It was a 6 lbs small mouth bass...i was so excited.
So anyways...i used up all my chances of ever winning anything, in one weekend....woe is me.
