I can't friggin' believe it!!!

Holy shit holy shit holy shit!!! You're not going to believe this. I was digging out my spring/fall clothes, this morning, for the season, I stick my hand in my spring jacket and I find a super seven lottery from October 2006. It's a little beaten up and I have no idea if I've checked it or not. So I stuff it back in the jacket and don't give it a second thought. Later in the evening, I head out for my daily stroll; it is a little nippy and I shove my hands in to the jacket pockets for warmth, and there's the six month old ticket.

So I stop by a corner store on the way home and have the ticket checked and the machine plays its little jingle telling me I'm not a complete loser, so I figure a free ticket or maybe ten bucks, but in no way did I think of a number like $1,223,320!!!! I hit six out of seven super seven numbers and the bonus, but it was my encore that paid out. I hit ALL my encores and made very COOL MILLION!!! I called the Ontario Lottery & Gaming Commission hotline for validation, and after a few confirmation questions, and a trip to their local office and it's verified!! ONE POINT TWO MILLION DOLLARS BABY!!!

Next week I have to go to Niagara Falls where they'll have the presentation ceremony at the Fallsview Casino. The Casino is sending me a Limo and I get a suite for the week. I guess they think I'll spend my new found wealth at their casino... although, they do have poker tables. All I know is the second I get cheque in my hot little hands, I'll calling my accountant and then my travel agent!

Needless to say I won't be posting much of anything on TFTH for the next little while. See you all when I see you.
