Next Monday has Arrived

As a follow up to my fabulous fortune that came to me via cookie back in March:

Today is Monday.

Today I had an opportunity arise.

Looks like I'm applying for a promotion!

Here's to fortune cookies being kind of vaguely right in hide-sight!

Woe is Work

Today was flipping exciting.

I got a trainee... surprise!

Had a heart to heart with the HR department regarding some of the interoffice disputes.

Confirmed that I am scheduled for 40 hours this coming week.

Set up an interview for 4 PM Monday afternoon.

Yes, I am aware there is very much overlapping. But my fortune this week said something about effort at school or work next week. Maybe this one is right and I won't have to wait until "next Monday" like the last fortune said.

Anyone want to work for me during my "appointment" Monday?

Waiting for "Next Monday"

Fortune cookies are the single most amusing bland dessert ever. They bring a bit of fun to the overstuffed and create a wonderful decoration for "my" work computer (which is not only not mine but I share it with plenty of people). Last week I was having a craving for gross-heavy eating so I went the Chinese route for lunch. My cookie had an oddly specific fortune: Opportunity awaits you next Monday.

So I waited. Yesterday, "next" Monday came and went and nothing special happened. I did take a class at the gym, a class that I've taken plenty of times before but this time with a new teacher, it was a small opportunity and today my shoulders and abs and hips and back are thanking and hating me. I helped win an electronic scrabble game but as it might have been an opportunity I don't know for what. I wrote a letter for my mom. Made a salad and ate the leaves (hate the leaves) but thats only an opportunity to eat more fiber.

So do I take it that the fortune has bad timing? No, I think my fortune cookie tricking me into laziness.
