A Bit Of Luck

I have wanted to see All American Rejects in concert for a long time.

So, when I heard they were coming in concert, I was pretty excited.

On my way home from work on Monday, I was listening to 97.1 and the DJ said he was giving away 2 tickets to the AAR show to the 10th caller.

Why not?

I called twice and it was busy. The 3rd time, it rang.

and rang and rang...

I knew from experience (remember Coldplay?!) that winning anything on the radio takes patience, so I decided I would let it ring 7 times. Once it had rang 7 times, I decided to wait for 11 rings (after all, I had time ---> I was stuck in traffic. Gotta love I-15) .

Well, after 10.5 rings, the DJ answered, "You're the correct caller! You win!"

Hooray!!

I'm pretty excited. I haven't been to a concert in a while. 

mortgage = no extra fun.

Here's a little recording:

If only my good luck had come into play a couple of weeks ago.

I went to Idaho for a family thing - I have the best family! - and I bought 3 lottery tickets for me and 2 friends. Gambling definitely isn't my thing, but it was a fun one-time thing.

None of us won anything...big surprise!

I can't wait for the concert on Oct 23rd!
