even more important than the frost-free date is the sock-free date. this year, mine was february 8. oh yeah. and today was my long-pants-free date. unfortunately, it looks like socks might be re-appearing later this week, but i'm keeping my fingers crossed that they won't.
friday was apparently my lucky day. i was wearing my lucky pants. seriously, they are lucky brand. and 2 lucky things happened. i won a drawing at the DBG for a day off work with pay. every day that you bike, walk, take the bus or carpool to work, they enter your name in a drawing for the day off or some movie tickets. this is the first time i won. (i also get a $10 target gift card every month i bike at least 5 times.) then later on friday, i found out i had won a different drawing for $250 (not related to work). i'm still a little skeptical about that one, at least until i get the check in the mail! a while back i contacted the web of science people to have them correct my middle initial in an entry, and then they asked me to fill out a customer service survey, and at the end you could enter a drawing, which i did because what the heck. even if i never, win i reduce the odds for everyone else! but i won!
i think i should wear lucky pants more often. i offered them to tim for his job interview this week, but he declined. something silly about they wouldn't fit?
