flippin sweet...

i never win anything. well..in elementary school, i won a readathon. i got a shiny purple huffy bike, 2 wheeler, with pink and purple ribbon fluttering from the handlebars. it had a pristine white seat, matching white tires. a little place for a canteen (well. THEY said canteen. i say water bottle.)it was beautiful. my mother wouldn't let me ride it. it sat, mocking me, in the dining room of our home, for a year. finally, my erstwhile cousin convinced her to let me ride it, but only in the playground across from our house. and so i'd bounce that shiny purple beauty down our front steps, walk it across the street, and ride around in circles for hours. hours. seriously. little 5 ft. diameter circles. i'd have to stop every fifteen minutes or so, and let the dizziness pass.

and one time, i called a radio station cuz they were giving away 25 weezer concert tickets. i was caller 26. i still went to the show tho. just not for free.

so, like i said, i never win anything. until today, that is! thanks to mama c-ta over at urban baby runway i've won a brand new car! no. not really. it's better than that. it's babylegs! which are going to come in especially handy what with the cloth diapering and all. not to mention that they're disgustingly adorable. if i'm reading it correctly, i think i actually won a grand prize. a GRAND prize! i never win anything! and i win a GRAND prize. as per my title...this is flippin sweet! (mama cta, if you're readin this...you can give the girly ones to the other lady, since her kids look like they're old enough to care what they wear, plus she's got 2 girls, where i only have one. or. you know, do whatever you think is best, with your benevolent badass self.)

so, faithful readers. click on over to urban baby runway and buy stuff. because the more stuff you buy, the more stuff she'll give away free. and maybe you too, can change your life course from LOSER to WINNER in one simple step.
