who really wins the lotto?

honestly? i mean ive heard of people but it cant be real? ive won a few bucks befor on a scratcher. $7.00 to be exact, and I use to know a women who won a few hundrend here and there but probably spent more weekley then she actually won. what about all those big bucks? who wins? Chris' mom thats who!
She left me a paniced voicemail last night, and excited panic telling me I had to call her back, unfortunatly I was in the middle of bed time for a 2 year old that had napped untill 5p.m. and was refusing to go to sleep. enough said. So it want untill the next morning I was able to text her and ask what was up? heres a rough recap of how our conversation went via text messaging

me - hey, sorry i couldnt call you back last night whats up?
her - i won some money last night
me - really, wow thats cool. congrats, how?
her - off a $3 scratcher
me - nice, if you dont mind me asking how much?
her - $750
me - awesome! wow i've never won more then a couple bucks
her - thousand
me - what?
her - $750 thousand
me - shut up!? no fucking way!
(im sorry i swore, i know i could edit that but when someone wins the lottery the f word might slip out and if i edit it out you may loose some quality of the story)

at that point I had to call her. un real huh? has to be one of the coolest stories ive heard or told in a long time for that matter. im happy for them, they deserve it, cant say i dont wish it was me, but im glad it was them.

we love fishies

Once a month they have a free admission day at the Steinhart Aquarium in S.F. So some of the mommies and I have been planning on taking the kids, super mommy style (no dads allowed)
K and I slept over in concord the night before to get a head start & carpool. We all woke up nice and early, packed up our picnic lunch and hit the road. we got into the city pretty quick, but so did everyone else who had the bright idea of going on free day. The line was down down down the street and around the block and down down down again, i cant deny and one point we all exchanged glances and thoughts of abandoning the plans for a pinic at the tea gardens instead but we stuck it out & the line moved suprisingly steady. 4 adults and 3 babes. 1 stroller and 2 ergos... we can do anything! espically FREE anythings!We all had a really good time, We spent most of our time down with the fish, K was a little quiet in the begining taking in everything she saw. we have a fish tank at home but nothing can compare to the awesome overhead fish tank tunnel room.
