I got them Wednesday Blues...

So here we are. Wednesday dawns bright and sunny (where was that when I needed it?) and it's back in the Office.

I need a quick, sure-fire way of becoming rich with minimal effort on my part.

I have looked at the list of aged relatives and quickly discounted a massive inheritance followed by a title.

I have looked at the area my parents live in and have equally discounted the possibility of buried treasure (Har. Pieces of Eight...Har) beyond the vague possibility of finding a bit of Harry Hotspur's thumb or similar - they live on the edge of Shrewsbury battlefield, you see.

I am both too lazy and too unimaginative to think of or work on building a fortune of my own, and am equally capable of pissing money away like it's going out of fashion.

In fact I have publicly stated on numerous occasions that one of my favourite hobbies is spending money I don't have on things I don't need. See for example my multicoloured frock-coat icon (and indeed, the matching cloak that will go with it during and after the next NWO event, provided [livejournal.com profile] magpye doesn't forget - and I have no reason to assume she will).

So, circumstances throw me back on Old un-Dependable.

Pure random chance.

OK Fate, I'm waiting.

Make me rich. In your own time, but soon would be nice. (A tenner on the lottery as a show of good faith...?).

Can't help you, mate. My large win on the lottery evaporated when I woke up...

Bugger.

Worth a try, though.

You've used up all your good fortune for this year on the Wolves win, and the money you could have bought lotto tickets with on BEER in celebration.

Next years luck is probably committed to helping keep Wolves in the Premiership, so the earliest spare luck you have is going to be mid-2005.

Drat and damnation.

I must expend more effort on money-for-nothing schemes.
