and quietly imagining what we'd do if we actually won.
well, today was the day.
and i didn't win a single euro. none of my friends did.
so it was a fun morning of crashing dreams.
laughs with a distant rumble of glass breaking inside every head.
We've talked about how we didn't really need the money, and how it's not such a huge prize, "you wouldn't be able to retire and live a happy jobless life"...

yeah yeah, we knew it was almost impossible but... that's the thing about the lottery,
it makes you hopeful and lets your imagination fly.
with that idea they created this year "The square of Dreams" in Madrid.
where people would go, write down their plans for the lottery prize in a little paper, and they would appear written on the huge balloons installed there.
The effect was amazing.
Si señores, hoy NO nos ha tocado el gordo.
En la oficina nos hemos reído todos y hemos contado lo que habríamos hecho si hubiésemos ganado,
Hemos comentado que tampoco el gordo da para tanto.. "No te da para retirarte", como queriendo convencernos de que en realidad tampoco seríamos más felices, pero de lejos se oía un ruido como de cristales rompiéndose, de ilusiones inocentes chocando contra el asfalto.
YA.. En el fondo sabíamos que no nos iba a tocar, pero es lo que tiene la lotería,
la ilusión.
Con esta idea, se creó este año "la plaza de los Sueños" en Callao. Donde la gente podía escribir sus ilusiones en un papel, y éstas aparecían sobre unos enormes globos de colores allí situados.
El efecto era impresionante.
piel de gallina + ojos llorosillos.
¿Tú que harías si ganaras la lotería?
