wednesday hiccups + free bars

waking up today was especially hard. after saying goodnight to mum last night i stayed up late writing bren a letter with everything on my mind. lately there seems to be so many things that i'm thinking but can't put into words, and even if the words are there, won't i be bothering people by voicing them? everybody has their own problems and mine are just more for them to worry about. 

snickers and mars bars have started their 'free bar's' campaign where if inside the wrapper it's written 'you've won,' etc., you get an instant free bar. last time this happened, i was working somewhere that sold these chocolates and according to the company '1 in 6 wins instantly'. either i can verify that this is utter bullshit or i have absolutely no luck. i would literally have bought over twenty chocolate bars (i'd buy one or two each shift, sometimes more) and so many to the point that i didn't eat them, i gave them to other staff members because i was so determined to win. as soon as i opened that winning wrapper i didn't buy another for months.
kudos, mars bars and snickers for your awfully brilliant advertising idea.
this afternoon i bought a mars bar and obviously no such luck. tonight though, my sister, her boyfriend and i each bought two. amy had one that was a winner - 1 in 6. i can't even eat them and i can tell this is going to be so painful until i win.
also, a little bit of twisting the knife, one time at dreamworld i bought a chocolate bar from a vending machine. it was a 'free bars' bar, and it was a winner. the only problem was that it had expired a month beforehand.

this afternoon, bren made me laugh until i had a severe case of the hiccups. he then proceeded to tickle me to ensure that the hiccups didn't go away. just quietly, its a bit fun having hiccups.
