STORY - Have You Ever Won Anything?

Some of the story prompts haven't really 

"spoken" to me.

But this one did!

Have I ever won anything?

YEARS ago.

1240 CKXL

(that's AM radio for all you youngsters)

ran an "I must have been a 

BEAUTIFUL baby" contest.

You had to call in and talk for 30

seconds without pausing or repeating

a word in order to win $100.

If you didn't make it, you won $1

for every second you went.

I called in and got on!!!!

That NEVER happens!

And you KNOW I can talk...

I got on a roll.

I must have been a beautiful baby.

I had lovely silken black hair

and gorgeous hazel eyes,

blah blah blah.

When I got to my super cute chubby

legs, I got caught on the word

"dimply".  I just couldn't get it out

and stuttered over it a couple of times

and they called me on it.

I made it TWENTY NINE seconds!!!!!

Pam Lansidale (sp) called me and said

she heard it!

And I got $29.

So there's that.
