I keep checking my email.  Good news or bad news.  I know the odds are in favor of the unfavorable, but every couple of years I get good news.  Here's hoping we ALL get the good news email this year!

Uh oh - just heard the email beep.  Could it be the Planet writing?

They usually send out the winner emails before the send out the loser emails. You also can usually find the information first by checking your card statement for charges.

Of course, I've only heard this second hand as I've never won the lottery.

I think I'd better put together a song list to keep me going.

1.  Please Please Me
2.  I've Got Two (hopefully FOUR) Tickets to Paradise
3.  Ticket to Ride
4.  Give Me a Sign
5.  Running Down a Dream
6.  Sound of Sunshine
7.  Running on Faith
8.  Don't Pass Me By
9.  It Won't Be Long

And if I get bad news:  Hey Jealousy, Comfortably Numb and, of course, Beer Run.

You are brilliant!

My get me through song is:

Walking on Sunshine ( OK, I'm singing it now)

My rejection song will be Amy Winehouse, "they tried to make me go to rehab, I said no, no, no, no"

I'm not worried at all. I'd love to win the lottery for once, but I know I'll be there no matter what.

Just got a charge on my cc. Tell Hot Sugar I'll be there this year. Took me to age 60 to get into TP. I hope luck shines on everyone else here now, too!
