This really made me smile, @grindan. Your charming, self-deprecating view of yourself is a goldmine for creativity! I love all the stories you told, like men suddenly showing up all over the place once you had a boyfriend. Isn't that always the way? Somehow you tied it all back to how you feel about winning the lottery. This is a great read, and I saw some of myself in it too. I'm sure everyone can relate on some level to what you shared!
