Unlucky, Lucky Day

So I started out today kind of unlucky - went to get on my bike & the chain came off, so I had to take the car.  I didn't let it upset me, just brushed it off.  Sweet baby boy was upset, because he wanted to take me to the train so he could get munchkins, but his sibs were all still asleep.  I missed the first train on purpose so I could relax, get some coffee & meet up with my train friends.  It wasn't that bad of a morning, even with the glitch.

When I arrived in my office, I got a voicemail that I won a lunch for 10 people from Chipotle!  Wow!  Really?  Last week I dropped my card in the fishbowl & I actually won.  Oh lucky day today is.  This prize is good for this week only, and today is my one day downtown this week- so it had to be today.  I was meeting up for lunch with a friend in honor of his birthday, so wrote him to put away his cash, lunch was 'on me' today!

The other 8 people I had to round up.  Wonderful husband is on the beat today, but wouldn't be around the loop...he was ruled out. 2 people were here in the office were taking part.  1 of the 2 train friends was free also & would meet me there to pick up her loot.  My sister wasn't answering her phone (I think she was in court) and her pregnant bff who works right by me, got my message too late.

So there were 5 other openings...I decided to let the old gals from my team join in the fun.  They were all downtown today too.  The first told me she was really busy today & asked me if I could do it tomorrow instead.  The second responded with 'absolutely - I love free stuff'.  The third thanked me & then thanked me again after she ate it.  People who I've told them about could probably match the three with their respective responses.  I'm still happy to share in the fun, more so because if they ever got wind that I had this free lunch & didn't include them, they'd probably hate me for life (and I'm not joking there).

I sat outside with my friend and we enjoyed our lunch.  I bought candy & 2 lotto cards on the way back to my desk...I won $2 (played $7)...but still won again.  Oh lucky day.  I wonder what the rest of the day has in store.
