Must Be My Lucky Day
I’ve never considered myself as having good luck, but I did win a radio contest once. Joey and I were driving down the highway listening to the radio and the DJ mentioned something about calling in to win a 6-pack of Lenny Kravitz CDs. I had my cell phone in my hand and for some reason got a wild hair to call in. Surprisingly, I won. I was pretty non-plussed as I gave the DJ my info to send out my free CDs. Then about a week later, I got a call from the radio station telling me that my name had been put in the drawing for the Grand Prize and that I had won. The guy was kind of put-off by the fact that I wasn’t screaming with joy. “Do you know what the grand prize is?” he asked me. “Actually, no” I said. Turns out, I had won an all-expense paid trip for two to Miami to see Lenny Kravitz and his band perform at their practice studio right before he kicked off his 2002 World Tour. I was pretty surprised; as I hadn’t even heard anything about that when I called in. It turned out to be an awesome trip, we stayed at a really cool art-deco hotel right on South Beach . Mr. Kravitz was actually really sick the night of the “intimate show,” so he ended up performing acoustic, but it was really fun. 
My good luck streak has resurrected itself this week, as I won Leah’s blog contest. As my prize, she is going to knit me a pair of socks! That has to be the most generous prize I’ve ever come across for a blog contest. I have to say that I’m really excited as I’ve never had someone (other than myself) knit me a pair of socks. I can’t wait to see how wonderful they are!
Oh, and my mom sent me some better pictures of Doc the horse, so I’ll share one of my dad riding him.
