Last Thursday, I attended this Awards thing-y for work. It was because my customer service scores pretty much rocked last year. (We have these random phone calls to customers, and the customers are asked to rate us from 1 to 5 in different categories. Then, the scores are averaged for that particular call.)
In 2009, I had over 25 "shops" and maintained a perfect "5" ranking!
(I'm so nicespice. People just really, really like me.)
Anyway, the awards thing-y was held at Churchill Downs. We, the chosen ones, got to leave work early and we headed to the track for a cocktail hour (okay, three hours) and then dinner and raffle prize drawings.
Except for the fact that pregnant people can't even drink free alcohol, I had a super fun time. Mainly, because I bet on (Derby Winning jockey) Calvin Borel's horse to win in the 8th race that day -- $10 to win! -- and he came through for me.
I won $132.00!! Squee! The horse was a semi-long-shot, and I read in the paper that it was the best payout of the day.
I was going to share some lovely photos with you from my time on Millionaire's Row... but I can't seem to locate the doo-hickey that you plug into a digital camera and then into your computer. Foiled again.
Well, all you really need to know is that I had a lovely view and probably stood in the very spot where the likes of Nick Lachey and Terry O'Quinn have stood.
And that I WONspice.
p.s. If anyone can figure out where the title of this post came from, you will win my love and affection!

And doesn't it totally suck when you're around people who can drink you know what and you can't? I always hated that part of being preggers.
Congratsspice!
You have two awards over on my blog:)
OK, I can't think of other lyrics right now. How about a different song?
"Luck, be a lady tonight...luck, be a lady, tonight. Luck, if you've ever been a lady to begin with, luck be a lady tonight!"
Oh, and congrats on your long shot!
I think I remember your title as being from song I saw on the Muppet Show. Where it came from before that is beyond me. =o)
