Being aware of your fears will improve your life.
Why did I have to pull this one first? Seems a bit daunting to think about at 9 in the morning, but honestly, this fortune is daunting for me to think about at any time of day. I fear that my life is quickly passing me by and that I haven't really done much with it. Perhaps that's not so much a fear as it is reality. I'm supposed to be using this time off to figure out what I should be doing during my finite time on the Earth. So far, no good. Haven't figured it out. Let's move on.
You will be showered with good luck.
That's more like it. Now I don't need to figure anything out, because good luck will shower down upon me for the rest of my days. Suck it fears! Problem solved.
You should be able to make money and hold on to it.
Of course I should, but shouldn't we all be able to do this? There are also two smiley faces on this fortune. I'm not sure why they are there, but I suppose it's better than two sad faces mocking you once the realization sets in that you don't make enough money and certainly haven't saved enough to take care of those dreams, which are slowly receding from your reality. Perhaps you could go sell some of your plasma to kickstart your savings?
Your intense personality can make quite an impression on people.
I've noticed this. Mostly when my fist impacts their stupid faces.
Your sense of humor allows you to glide through these difficult times.
As does my intense personality and my witty charm and my rugged, handsome good looks. Oh sure, cheap rent and unemployment checks help out as well, but mostly it's my sense of humor. Too bad my trust fund hasn't matured yet...that would help out as well. My friend John at the pool hall was just telling me about his friend whose parents both died a while back. They owned 25 KFC restaurants and left it all to him with the stipulation that he can have it all if he stops drinking. Seems like a silly request, as the human body needs a lot of water to survive. Apparently he hasn't yet cashed in on their generosity.
Seek your comfort at home, it proves rewarding.
Not last night it wasn't. Tossed and turned and tossed and turned some more and finally fell asleep after what seemed like many hours. Then woke up about three and a half hours later at 6:30 in the morning, when I had to go to the bathroom. Kind of like I do now. Hold on. Talk about good fortune...just got into the bathroom before one of my roommates took a shower. Anyway, I tried to get back to bed, but all I could do was toss and turn some more, which made me irritated, so I decided to climb down out of bed and start my day. Hopefully the comfort I seek here at home will be a nice long nap this afternoon.
Your love of music will be an important part of your life.
My brother Dan taught me how to play a small portion of Child In Time by Deep Purple the other day on the piano we have across the hallway in The Orphanage. It's not an actual orphanage and it's capitalized because that's the name of the space. Concerts are held there every now and again, but not lately, as it's been too hot. Anyway, I've never really learned an instrument, but now I'm proficient at playing piano. Not quite, but I've asked another roommate if I can borrow some basic piano lesson books for dummies so I can see if I can learn. Perhaps in a few days of practice, I'll be better than I was at banjo playing. I miss that thing.
Anyway, here's a couple pictures from a June show at The Orphanage...
Now is a good time for you to explore. Take a vacation.
Well I am going to Gary, Indiana tomorrow! Looks like this is one fortune that will come true. Heading to some beach with Janet and Will and their kids for some fun in the sun! At least I think that's what will happen. Does the sun actually shine in Gary, Indiana or does the stench and grime wafting through the air block it? At least I won't need to apply sunscreen.
Actually I am taking a bit of a vacation. Heading to Vegas for eight days near the end of August for the APA 8-Ball National Team Championships tournament. Flights and hotel room are paid for by our league operator since my team won the city wide tournament a few weeks back. Guess I just need to come up with some money for food and gambling and hookers. After Vegas, I'll be traveling to Los Angeles to stay with my friends Chris and Kristin for a few days, maybe longer, depending on how long they can stand my company. I've never been to Los Angeles, so I'm looking forward to seeing what it's all about. So I suppose it is a good time for exploration and vacationing.
Thanks for the advice chinese fortune cookie fortune!
