Misplaced Luck

[gonzai]

Beats me how I've managed this, but after not winning anything at anything in some 20 years, I have now won two raffles in three months. Both were gift baskets of pet supplies, the first one a $50 basket of small animal items, most of which my rats appreciated, and the one today is a $100 basket of large dog supplies, which hopefully CJ will allow Mosely to enjoy. (The poor fellow was diagnosed this week with a partially torn ACL, so he needs the giant bed and fluffy toys.)

Now, not that I'm ungrateful or anything like that - both baskets are a help with my critters - but being as I'm over five months unemployed, couldn't I win the lottery instead? (Yes, I play one ticket per drawing.) Anything would be good.
