i won the lottery!

okay, not exactly. i did win money playing the lottery, though. how much, you ask? $3. with it i bought... one each powerball and hoosier lottery tickets for the next drawing, and i kicked in with my mother to buy a book of stamps. exciting isn't it?

by the way, earlier there were swat team guys prowling around my front yard. according to the next door neighbor, who called to tell us so that we didn't find out by walking out there for a puppy potty break, the guy across the street had some guy at his house who was drunk with a gun. i'll give you details later if i find any out. as of right now there's still one police vehicle out there shining a spot light on the house, but the other cops seem to have left. i don't know if that means they captured him, he ran away, or they just lost interest. it's just weird to think that we had some swat cop leaning on the truck hood with a rifle.
