I can't believe it. I just got a call for a sweepstakes hosted by Universal Studios telling me I won their grand prize, an all inclusive trip to Orlando and Datona Beach. Skeptic that I am, I *69'ed number and sure enough was connected to Universal Studios customer service.
Dig this, seven days, six nights in Orlando with a five day pass to Universal Studios, two day express passes (so no waiting in line), Enterprise car rental for the entire thing, hotel accommodations at the Radisson Resort...then
Five days in Datona with a rental car and hotel.
I about peed myself listening to the woman, Laurie, explain it all to me.
This is where I say I can't believe it. I've never won anything in my life, besides a multiplication bee back in elementary school.
Shocked, I am. Shocked and a lot of amazed.
For anyone wondering, this drawing for was a survey company called ClearVoice.
That's all. I just had to share the good news!

Congratulations! I think I'd pee myself, too, if I won a big prize. I tend to win little things, or things I don't need. I won a subwoofer and surround sound stereo speakers last year by playing an online game. I wasn't trying to win any of the prizes (they didn't excite me), I just really enjoyed playing the game (it was like Bejewelled).
Congratulations again, and you'll have to post about your trip after you take it.

Thanks. :)
I'm going to have to look up that game. I've never heard of it.
We actually can't afford to take the trip right now. We just put a new transmission in the car, so we're hoping it's transferable. Hmm, I wonder just how strange an item one could sell on eBay would have to be before they say no...
