Reminiscent of Willie Wonka, Prince started a "win a purple ticket" contest. The prize? Win a private concert at his HOME sometime later this spring. Cool huh?

I entered the contest today. Wanna enter too? :) If you win, you have to promise to "Take Me with u"! :)

I entered by buying the songs from iTunes, but you can enter by sending in a postcard.

Tuesday morning, while the kid was getting ready for school, we happened upon the Olympics on television. She asked what those people were doing on the ice and I said, "It's one of the most boring sports out, curling. It's almost as bad as badminton."

Then I went on to watch it for the next hour. How pathetic is my life? :) Don't answer!
