I win!

I sign up for a lot of shit. I mean, if I have the time and all I have to do is fill out a form, then why not. The worst thing that could happen is I just wasted about 5 seconds of my life. I've wasted 5 seconds doing much worse.

So this week I signed up for this thing at my gym. They were giving away different prizes every day to promote some new technology device that I'll never, ever use. And yesterday, I noticed my name as a winner.

Wait, I'm wrong. I actually saw this:

Congratulations to Barrio Arliss. You won last night's drawing!

I couldn't remember what I signed up for, as each day was a different prize. And when I first talked to the dummy's behind the desk they told me I probably won the lifetime supply of some shitty bulk-inducing powder. Now I'm not one to complain (who am I kidding, yes I am) but I did not want this as a prize. If this is what I really won, I would've just told them to keep it or give it to someone who might actually want it.

But I didn't win the shitty powder. What I did win was something practically tailored just for me. One hour of a personal yoga session, followed by a one hour massage! How friggin' awesome.

Now, of course, the other day I ordered a massage for next Friday but who cares. It's my belief that you can never have too many massages. Especially when one of them is free.

So today I get a gold star. Tomorrow I get on a plane to NYC. And then my Mommy and I will be together again.
