For some reason, the gods of cool were smiling down on me today and many cool things came my way, making me quite giddy.
I received an email today informing me that my chicken fajita soup recipe had achieved runner-up status in a contest that I forgot I entered. $25 cash prize. Holla.
Also through the wonders of the Internet, I have been mistaken for a real blogger and have received not only passes for a press screening of Ramona and Beezus, but a chance for a phone interview with Selena Gomez. This has upped my cool factor in the eyes of my child by about 200%.
Because I have a new pastime of hanging at the pool, I have been in search of the perfect insulated non-glass pitcher for taking a batch of cocktails to the pool. And today I found it. At Goodwill. For $3.99 in all of its retro glory.
With that $25 cash prize burning a hole in my pocket, I also hit the fabric store to purchase fabric for a quilt I am planning for my oldest, Maggy. And guess what? Didn't even know it, but all quilt fabric was half off. Are you seeing a trend here? I am golden, people. Gold. En.
My bargain mania took me on one final stop to Ross, in search of a case for my iPhone and a spare pair of sunglasses for the pool. Found both. On sale. Cha-ching.
And when I got to the register, the twatty little cashier asked, "Are you 55 or older?" to see if I qualified for the senior discount.
BITCH.
What crows feet? What divet in my forehead? Bags under the eyes, who?

I can't get over a little twit saying that. Idiot!
In other news, congrats on the good mojo! I love the vintage pitcher. That is golden.
Let's not let that visually impaired cashier ruin all the good stuff!
What a dumb dumb. People say the stupidest things. Like people keep asking me when I'm due. And I'm like - 6 weeks ago.
