HUNDRED-AIRES!

 

     I've got some remarkable workout aids, Access bars, Sustain sports drink, aminos, Elevate protein, etc and I get them delivered to the house as I happen to run out of this and that.  Which means more often than not I'll get a box shipped to me every week.  Which means I see the same delivery driver once a week.  I was in the middle of today's route and who pulls up in the parking lot I was running through but my delivery guy.  I've told him about some of the silly stuff I find in the road and I stopped to yak for a sec.  I was telling him what I had found so far today and he started pulling out stuff he's found and it's hilarious--he sees the same kind of stuff I do!   He's found a lot of tools also - vice grips, crescent wrenches, screw drivers, measuring tapes, to name a few and I had to laugh.  See--it's not just me that stumbles across this stuff.  We're both going to make a fortune at our next respective garage sale. Why...we could be hundred-aires!!

     I usually keep an eye peeled for lotto scratch-off tickets, the 2nd chance drawing ones.  If it doesn't win when you do the scratch off part then you can go online and scan the ticket for a chance to win, in this case, a Tinseltown Takeover Trip (whatever that is), but it could be $100, or a trip to Vegas, or NFL season tickets, or, for the Willie Wonka ones, a million smackers.  Anyway, I found another one of those so I entered it so I've got another entry in the hopper.  I also found a "Bug Sky Ball", a 4" inflatable ball.  With lots of little plastic spiders inside?  Seriously?  Just seems a little creepy giving that to your kid to play with.  There was also the usual assortment of pocket change, another socket, and a small silver plated $10 bill likeness key chain bobble?  The hole for a chain is the wrong way for it to be a pendant so I'm thinking keychain. 

    I just needed a quarter to "hit for the cycle" today but the last few miles I kept finding shiny pennies, which considering that they're always a blessing, I don't mind not seeing the quarter.  I suspect it was probably there, I don't always spot everything I pass, after all I'm running and also watching for cars, watching the terrain, etc.  More than once I've run back the way I came and there's the penny I missed on the way out (or nickel/dime/quarter.)  But no worries.  Something else for me to find tomorrow.  And appreciate!!
