money down the drain

wow. I got so desperate last night that I spent 25 bucks on the lottery. they have this big 21 million jackpot on wednesday. and I thought: well, life's gonna be a lot easier with that kind of money. I know. should have listened to jeff buckley. he is right:

"how many times have you heard someone say
if I had money, I would do things my way
but little they know that it's so hard to find
one rich man in ten with a satisfied mind."


it's hard to be poor and courageous and to do the right thing.

I have this strange quasi-belief that some greater power will never let me win the lottery. So much of what I enjoy in life is a struggle and if that were taken away from me I'd be even more miserable and less myself.

I still play the lottery anyhow.

I actually share that belief. and to prove it: I won. I got three (!)numbers right and my share of the 21 million jackpot is: 10 bucks.

love my struggles.
