Then WMC's newsdroid said that the winning ticket was sold "here in the Mid-South" and I got a bit more excited (I wasn't thinking clearly due to not having drunk enough coffee yet... had the winner been in Memphis proper they certainly would have said "Memphis" and not "Here in the Mid-South"). But then they came back after the commercial break, and the newsdroid said "sold in Munford", and I replied, "Oh shit... I have to go in to work, after all".
And then to add further to my depression... Friday morning (I think), they announced on the air that weather babe Brittney Bryant got engaged... I've been hot for her ever since she started there, and held out hope that maybe one day I'd run into her out and about and dazzle her with my charm, wit and brilliance. Now that hope's been dashed, too.
Some days it just doesn't pay to chew through the leather straps in the morning...
