Back to work today... I felt bad because I didn't wake Dante up at 6:15a like I usually do - I'd usually press the snooze button and stay awake long enough to make sure he got out of bed - this morning, I just pressed the snooze alarm and went back to sleep. I didn't realize it until he got up at 6:30a himself to go take a shower (there was no hot water by the way!) and after Dante left for work, I went back to sleep. Then, at 8:10a, I looked at the alarm clock and shot out of bed thinking I was late and wondering why my alarm didn't go off. I threw on clothes and was ready to head out the door when I remembered - Oh yeah, I don't have to be at work until 9:00a. Amazing what two extra days off does to your mind. (not that I'm complaining!)

Some lucky guy in West Virginia won $314 million ($117 million after the lump sum thing and taxes) - is it even possible to spend that much money?? Dante is the king of spending money but even he said he wouldn't be able to spend that much money. At lunch, Steph and I were contemplating how to spend $100 million. Even if you buy a house and a nice nice car, that would only be $15 million max. I'd buy a couple businesses (so I still get income), probably buy or build a hotel in Las Vegas (I was just watching Oceans Eleven the other night), put aside money for a maid for my house, oooh! buy a sports team! ... It is tough to spend that much money!! I've been cheap for so long I don't know what I'd do with money. Heehee Steph can hire Jamie Oliver (The Naked Chef) to be her personal cook...
