Creating my own reality

Yesterday I had a strong urge for fudge. Today, one of our lecturers brought in a tin of her perfect and lovingly-made fudge.

Today I am cultivating a strong urge to win the Powerball lottery. We'll see how that works.

I desperately want to go out to lunch today, but I'm living with a self-imposed budget that allows for only one restaurant meal a week. And that's looking like Saturday. Suxxor.

UPDATE: Had an amusing interaction with one of our professors who came in singing "There's a bright golden haze on the meadow...". Please note: This is not someone I ever would have pictured singing showtunes. Ever. Between this and the lunch thing, my day just turned to fabulous. Now if I can just pull through on the Powerball thing.

Wow, and like a miracle you're going to India Palace with us for lunch! And we're paying!

Amazing, that gift of yours.

Gee, would you like to help me cultivate an urge for a tiffany set square diamond?

Killbots. Cultivate a strong urge for an army of killbots and a harem of beautiful but deadly acolytes to do my insidious bidding.

I'm willing to share.

See, now everybody has to get in on the goods. It is almost like she already did win the lottery.

(P.S. Ewan McGregor--just one cross-country motorcycle ride with him. And beautiful weather to ride in. Thanks.)

Wow, you even work long distance, one of my professors brought me fudge today too! Actually I think it was just his quilty conscience at being so disorganized at a very busy time for us but I am not ruling out this working on Powerball though so I need to be sure and buy a ticket too :) :) :). Enjoy lunch!

It does work!

I got no fudge but a great mood! I'm buying a lottery ticket on the way home and if I win - we're 50/50 :)

Enjoy the India Palace thing.

If you manage the Powerball thing I'm going to set up a small shrine to you on my altar.

showtunes...they're a meme that infect the most unlikely hosts.
