My Massachusetts Lottery Blog

(I have a whole bunch of Megabucks numbers in my wallet that I haven't checked yet, and I'm going to have to rack my brains to remember what happened on these days besides buying the tickets!...you'll see this note in every one of the posts whose days I'm trying to mentally reconstruct.)

"This pizza is delicious!" I exclaimed a little too cheerily to my co-worker who was holding a barbecue to celebrate her son graduating from high school. Truly, it was delicious...but uppermost in my mind was how uncomfortable it was to be standing in the searing summer heat of her back yard.

Then I played these numbers for Megabucks.

Well, that is interesting. Six was off by one in BOTH directions, while eight was off by one in only one direction. And 31 was exactly right.
