My good fortune. Or not.

I am one of those stupid people who actually open up their mass produced fortune cookie after Chinese food with the hope that it will contain actual wisdom passed down to me from Buddha himself. In my HEAD I know they are just made up stupidness printed at a factory in San Francisco, but part of me thinks ‘if God WANTED to get a secret message to me, this would be a perfect way to do it!’. yeah, I know. I am lame. So when I opened the first one I smiled….

And decided this was most certainly a message sent to me about the upcoming BlogCrush Blogger Ball. I mean it says GLAMOUR right in it!!! So then I went and pushed my luck and opened another one (hey they are fat-free ya know), and that was when I found this little tidbit of depression….

I mean seriously Fortune Cookie guy, what the heck? How the hell is this inspiring? How does this tell my fortune? It sounds like someone let Martha Stewart into your factory and she decided to remind us all the benefits of good time management. Well, knock it off Martha. After all, I have ‘glamour and excitement’ coming my way. And it might be coming SATURDAY. I don’t want to be too busy doing CHORES to miss it now do I?

I opened a fortune cookie one time and there was no fortune. Now that was a bummer.

Martha is such a freaking killjoy.

I read it all to mean that a Saturday is a perfect day for a glamorous bloggers ball!

I think it’s perfect…because what is “The Glamorous Life Assoc.” all about but the un-glamorousness of our daily lives as moms doing chores on Saturday, right? Perfect.

My husband teases me mercilessly for making decisions by flipping a coin, but he looks at fortune cookies like dogma. He would even take the chore one to heart. I would just flip a coin if I didn’t want to vacuum.

Funny Funny !… May you have good fortune in your future!

Perhaps it’s really a sign to combine glamor and chores? You could put on your prom dress to do the dusting…

So funny. Cyrstal is right, it is perfect, actually.

Please scroll down to the button on the right that reads “The GIRL Party.” She looks pretty glam to me.

Also? You could solve this by complaining, just one time, out loud, about what a CHORE the OC Blogger’s Ball has become.

Win-win. ;)
