Scratch to win!

My neighbor likes to buy those scratch-to-win-money cards from a liquor store. Today she showed me a card that she got and said she might have won $20,000! I was shocked and very happy for her. Wow! Maybe that's what I should be doing, instead of searching for jobs! Imagine how easy my life would be if I won a couple of these! Sigh... Of course, after we went to the liquor store the owner handed her the disappointing news. She didn't win. She did get a few dollars here and there from other scratch cards. So she bought more again. Here's to hope for winning that elusive $20,000 soon.

On the job front, it's still going. I want to be positive about it, but sometimes it's just sad. I don't know how it all will end. Good thoughts! Focus!

I finally watched Twilight tonight. It's... so average. The transition from scene to scene is really off, and the tone is awkward too. I understand the appeal of vampires, I just don't think this movie does them and their stories justice. The dialog is... stiff. The lead girl is... wooden. The book has to be better than this. I sure hope the sequel is more polished and refined than this one.
