Holy crap.
I won $1000 tonight.
Last night, after dinner with my dad and some family friends, we stopped at a neighborhood bar because they all wanted a coctail (and the restaurant I picked out didn't actually have a full bar). I'm not a drinker, but hey, I love all these people so I wanted to hang out. Being a bar in New York state, there was a Quick Draw lottery going on. I think for folks in New England, it's like Keno. Or something like that. Anyway, I played a few games and ended up winning $55. Cool.
Tonight we went out again with some other family and afterwards we went to the bowling alley where my cousin works. Again, being a place with a bar in New York state there was Quick Draw. Figuring what the heck, I played again. I lost on the first set of games I played, but on a whim I figured I'd try again. My cousin just gave me a look because he thought I was throwing my money away. Usually that's probably the case, but I figured what the hey.. I was still riding the money I'd won the previous night.
Sitting there with my aunt while we watched my dad and cousin play shuffleboard, I looked up and realized that three of my numbers had come in on one of the games I played. As I watched, the rest of my numbers came in. WTF! Not that I'm going to complain.
My aunt made me rub her lotto ticket before we left to go home.
