On The Lottery

I played NYS Lotto this week.

I'd had a particularly magical day, and as numbers popped into my head I said, "Fuck it," and layed down a dollar for some pink paper, much in the same way that real money gets converted into Pounds, Euros, and whatever the fuck kind of queer-eye money they have in Brazil.

So tonight rolled around and I checked the numbers and sure enough I hit 2 of them. Now as far as I know this means I won precisely squat, but I was thinking about the odds and I'm a little impressed: about a 1/3080 shot of hitting any 2 numbers. As far as I'm concerned, I quantified my awesome magical luck powers on level 6.5 or 7 as being equivalent to guessing 2 of 6 lotto numbers.

My prize? Two pink pieces of paper.

Guess I have to dial it up to 11 to make the big bucks.
