Fortune Cookies
Have you noticed that most fortune cookies these days don't actually contain anything that would be considered a fortune (m-w.com: DESTINY, FATE [can tell your fortune]; also : a prediction of fortune)? Fortune cookies normally have some cliched saying or tell you something about yourself that is more of an affirmation than a prediction.
Today, I got a prediction. It said, "Love is around the corner."
I like to think that I'm a jaded, cynical, old bastard, but at the end of the day, I'm just a hopeless romantic. So when I read that I smiled.
Good times, good times. Someday, I'll tell you all about them.
