SOOOOO ready for vacation!

Well, it's finally here. A week in California with some of the craziest, funnest mo-fos I know. And now it's SNOWING outside - even better reason to get the h3ll out of Dodge - I am SO READY for sun, cocktails and hangin' out.

I'll try to bring some sunshine back with me -
peace out!

Liking this lucky streak...

Earlier this week I came home to find a message on my answering machine from a local radio station announcing that I'd won tickets to the upcoming Tom Petty concert. The fact that I entered the contest via email as a random, last-minute afterthought and then actually WON brought a huge smile to my face. I'm totally stoked to go see Tom.

Then later this week I went to the local I-Club (Iowa Hawkeye Boosters) cocktail hour at a local watering hole. While there, I met some nice folks and had a coupla nice glasses of wine. I was coveting the Hawkeye ball cap that the host was carrying around as she drew a couple raffle ticket numbers for some miscellaneous goo-gahs like tiger-hawk emblazoned notepads and buttons, etc. Lo and behold, the third and final ticket she drew had MY number on it, and she handed me the cap! I was jubilant!!

I am SO buying a lottery ticket today!!!
