Quote of the Whenever I Feel Like Changing It
“And don 't forget, the next time you're planning a family vacation, consider visiting Genovia. A country of majestic mountains and sunbaked beaches, filled with friendly, peppy people. Come see us. Genovia awaits you.” – Joe, “The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement”

Writer's Block: Jackpot

[Error: unknown template qotd]Cynical answer: What newfound riches? I'd be taxed into oblivion by Obama and his socialist policies in order to finance my neighbor's inability to spend money non-stupidly. A normal person would make sure they had electricity and water. My neighbors buy dogs.

Rather practical answer: Pay off my student loans, buy my own apartment and car, and then stash some winnings aside to help fund all the attempts to get my books published. I wouldn't quit my job, 'cause not working drives me crazy. I'd probably also start some sort of charitible fund or donate a bunch to my alma mater...

Dreamy, pie-in-the-sky, all-for-fun answer: Visit every place I've ever wanted to visit: London, Berlin, Athens, Sydney, Disney World, etc. Buy  gorgeous, uninhabited island somewhere warm and start my own country so I can be a princess.

I laughed bitterly at your first paragraph. SO TRUE.

If you ever make it to Disney World, let me know. I'm just 2 1/2 hours from there, so I'd love to join you!

On a random note, today I'm wearing a shirt that matches your journal background.
