WOO HOO I won an Ipod!!

So like I guess I'm supposed to be all excited and stuff since I really dont win anything. I decided to goto a nice little shindig employee banquet tonite for my job. A chance for me to be real spiffy and dress up. They had a "roaring 20's" theme that I didnt take part in, but it seems like it would have been fun to do. I'll be with the theme next year, I promise. So I get to meet alot of people that work in other offices thruout the county, had some drinks, etc. My dood couldnt get out of work, so I decided to take mom with me. One thing about these yearly banquets is that they give out some really cool prizes. I've heard about vacation packages to Disney they've given out in years past. Thru the night they give out alot of other cool prizes, AMEX and Best Buy gift cards, etc. I kinda wished I could have got one of the $100 gift cards.

In any case, the night winds down, and my mother is hard up for a smoke and neither of us had one (oops, i thought i quit) but I was like "lets just wait to see who wins the ipod". Well, a good part of the crowd had left, and some of us die hards were still there doing cha-cha slide and stuff (keep in mind, at this point we have some drunks on the dance floor, there was some hilarity there, albiet still fun). He called three names of suckers that were already gone. Too bad. So sad. I almost injured myself running to claim my ipod ;-)

I will admit, I'm thinking "I can care less about an ipod, I dont really care for an mp3 player right now" and I was thinking how much I could get on ebay, but I actually like it and wanna hang on to it (unless someone makes a great offer). They even gave me an iTunes card to download some stuff, pretty cool.

Arent I glad I left wallyworld? :-P
