Fortune Cookie Wisdom of the Day!

Yes, I know--I should be working, but I had to stop and eat and try to get my head unclogged with a heaping helping of kung pao chicken and hot and sour soup. So far, it's working pretty well. I need a bucket of some sort under my nose, but it is nice to be able to breathe, at least for a little while.

Before we start, however, a bit of chiding is in order. If you have kung pao on the menu, and someone orders it, don't confuse things when you call out the person's order by saying, "KUNG PAO CHICKEN! SPICY!" And then turn around and call out ANOTHER person's order by saying simply, "KUNG PAO CHICKEN!" Because it makes it sound like someone ordered the spicy with the idea of it being more spicy than usual. Especially when the guys in the back who were cooking it went to the trouble of marking the box lid with a special "SP" abbreviation. Yes, I DO know that kung pao chicken is spicy, so you don't have to tell me that. But surely you must understand I thought I got someone else's order, right? I mean, what with you calling out two different things for the same dish and all?

Maybe it's just me.

ANYWAY, time to delve into the mysteries of the Ancient Orient. The first message today is:

You prefer to use your energy in cooperative ventures rather than alone.

Astoundingly accurate! I know for a fact I would get little done without the input and cooperation of the voices in my head.

Next up:

You are sensitive and look deeply into yourself and others.

That is just so true.

Oh, sure--people complain about my x-ray vision, but I understand why they might be uncomfortable, and due to my sensitivity to those feelings, I use my power only when people don't know I'm using it.

As for looking deeply inside myself, well, that's just for fun.

TODAY'S LUCKY NUMBERS:

Mine yesterday:

-- Take a break from your usual routine & enjoy yourself. --

Hah - easy for them to say, even in Chinese!
(Maybe I could get Rosie O'Donnell to translate?)
I'd rather have the ones about me getting some big piles of munnee. What did I do with that Nigerian oilman info ...
