Unlucky cookie
About twenty minutes ago, I ate some leftover chinese takeout for lunch. At the end of the meal, I realized that there was one fortune cookie left and decided to eat it too. Since I am pretty inept with my hands (hence the remedial knitting skills and unmastered laboratory techniques) and am also generally clumsy, I had a difficult time getting the plastic wrapper open. When I finally popped the plastic open, the fortune cookie sprang out and smashed into a million pieces on the kitchen floor. Even the largest surviving pieces were too small to enjoy, so I swept the whole bit up and threw it in the trash. Then I picked up the fortune from the cookie and read it.
It said, "Your luck will completely change today."
Hmmph. I hope so. I really wanted that fortune cookie.
