March just keeps getting better and better.First the Girl Scout Cookies, then the iPhone, today, free beer.
That’s right. You heard me. Free beer for no reason. (unless you count marketing and the fact that people blog about it a good reason.I was at a gas station near Gainesville, Florida and some lady was giving away free samples.I went over to get my Dixie cup full of beer and she asked if I wanted a Becks or a Stella.
Then she handed me a six of Becks.
And I’m posting this from I75. From my iPhone, which I can legally write off.
And it is 75 degrees.

Sounds like you would be living the dream if she had only handed you the Stella instead.

March is treating you well! What do I have to do to get some of that good luck to rub off on me?!

This is why I’m hesitant to leave Florida – people give you free beer on I75 and it’s 75 degrees! Sounds like perfectly good reasons to stay if you ask me!
See you soon!

You’re in the middle of a lucky streak. Time to hit the casinos?

So what you’re saying is it’s okay to hate you right now. Right?

My daughter just asked me “Who?” from the next room.
Probably because I yelled “Uhhh! She sucks!”
You don’t really suck, I know, but I need 75 degrees. Need it. You can keep the beer. I just want warm weather!!

Instead of feeling happy for you, which if I was a good person, I would be….I’m just bitter. My month doesn’t hold a candle, you lucky bastard.

It was 75 degrees yesterday, but today it’s snowing. Texas sucks.
I want beer and an iPhone too!

Is it ok that although I love you like crazy, I also sort of hate you right now? I’ll get over it, but it’s hard to be happy for you when I have 4 kids with the flu here and am not feeling wonderful myself! Oh, and my husband has been out of town all week and I haven’t left the house since Sunday. You are pretty lucky though and you just had a lot of health stuff going on, so maybe after this I will have good luck just like you. Right? That totally makes sense, right?

That was the promotion girl from the company I work for. Small world huh? I love freebies. Every once in awhile they give us a case if it’s about to go bad. Which means I have to go home and down it all, RIGHT THEN. Such a shame.

Are you TRYING to get me to slit my wrists? Because if you are, it’s working.

You’re on a roll. What could possibly be next?

Really? Becks over Stella? Huh…

OK, it is free beer, but is it too much to get free Guinness?

I tried to come up with all kinds of gracious comments, but in fact, you suck.
Then I was about to be all indignant, given that Stella is the perfect breakfast beer, but then I realized you posted in the late afternoon, so Becks was probably the right choice.
Hrmph. You still suck.

Rock on! Just remember, you may want those beers when it is 100 and 97% humid in FL!

I’m jealous. Your March seems to be going better than mine. So far, my best news is that my state income tax refund came in already.
And yes, I realize what it looks like getting your taxes done so early. We are slightly nerdy. And we really wanted our refund back as soon as possible.

[...] a public restroom. (In fact it happened in the restroom of the gas station near Gainesville where I got the free beer.) I couldn’t quite figure out how I got a rock in my tennis shoe when I was walking on [...]
