Tina Says...

I want a safe neighborhood in which to raise my son. The Universe throws it in my lap.

I want to kick ass at work and be rewarded for it. The Universe throws it in my lap.

I want enough money to be comfortable and take vacations from time to time. The Universe throws it in my lap.

I want a man who can laugh with me, likes my children, and intrigues me. The Universe throws him in my lap.

With such an awesome Fairy God Mother (a/k/a The Universe), who needs to win the lottery?

Yeah, it's good to be me.
