Millionaires

I convinced my Mom to buy us a mega millions lottery ticket Tuesday night. I got so excited to be a $1.6 billionaire!   I figured that I could scrounge together a dollar and if she matched my dollar to get the ticket, we could buy one mega millions ticket and possibly be the winner of a $1.6 billion jackpot!   I started to laugh as I dreamed of what I could do with all of that money.

I told her we probably would be taxed $500 million but that really didn’t matter because we’d have  more millions to spend!  I told her that it would be just like The Script’s song  and began singing it for her! She didn’t know what song I was talking about and I offered to play it for her. I told her that it wasn’t one of my, “Wah, Wah.  Cry, cry”  songs and I’ve pulled it up on Apple Music as she put the pads for my tens unit on my knee.

She didn’t like this song even though it wasn’t one of my, Wah, Wah. Cry cry songs.”   I didn’t care because I liked it! She showed me the ticket and Tuesday and I found out Tuesday night before I went to bed that we didn’t win, we didn’t even match one number!  We do not live in South Carolina!  My Mom got a little irritated that we could have bought a gallon of milk with that money but I said that it was an investment in our future and it was fun. I never buy a ticket unless it’s like $1 billion anyway!   It’s fun to dream!
