The winner of a $26 million California Lottery prize may have literally washed the chance of a fortune down the drain.

The winning SuperLotto Plus ticket for the Nov. 14 drawing was sold at an Arco AM/PM convenience store in the Los Angeles suburb of Norwalk. Thursday was the last day to redeem it.

Nobody did.

Store employee Esperanza Hernandez told the Whittier Daily News that a woman came in Wednesday and told workers that she had put the ticket in her pants and it was destroyed in the laundry.

I got up this morning and put on my suit pants. I then grabbed a shirt, tie, and the suit coat and put them on the back of a dinning chair. Made my coffee and got in the car to go to the gym. I got to the gym and realized that I left my suit coat and shirt at home.

Thankfully I keep an extra suit coat, tie, and shirt in the office. So... I'm rocking grey pants and a blue suit coat for my remote hearing today. At least no one will see I'm mismatched. Oh and to top it off, I forgot to put on a belt. Today is definitely Friday. Need that long weekend...

For me, too, it also seemed like Friday the Thirteenth. All sorts of little things went wrong from the time I got out of bed.

The blue AR coating on the crystal, combined with the dial color make it all work. In reality, the watch was your saving grace for tying everything together.

The no belt though? Rough. Pants fit perfect for the first hour of your day. After that? Swimming in 'em. I am fortunate enough to have had 36" panduit straps(giant zip ties) around in similar situations.

Glad you made it through the day bud. As much as I don't want to admit it, this makes the reverso all the more perfect for you.

I generally try to avoid that with jeans.

Despite my driveway being almost three years old now, the asphalt was not quite ready to support the new steel-legged elevated planter boxes we bought. [emoji51]

Someone at Invicta didn't proofread the subject line before deploying this email.

Timex pricing is really getting out of control.
