The best part? At the end of the meal, they give you a fortune cookie! I love fortune cookies...cause they taste yummy...AND give you a fortune. (duh!)
Did you know it is a rule to say "in my bed" after every fortune?
Here is one of my fortunes from my last visit-
Read in order to live. (in my bed)
For real, homes.
I have been reading like crazy. Next to reality t.v., it is a great escape for me.
I have been storming through Jodi Picoult books in just the last few weeks I have read Perfect Match and The Tenth Circle.
I have been WANTING to read the Twilight series...so I finally bought the first book this weekend. I know SOOO behind the times, but isn't that what happens when you are
So, I started reading it, so far, I like it. We will see. Usually when most of the world loves something I tend to hate it. I'll let you know when I finish it.
The other fortune (yes, I ate two cookies, so?)read:
One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar. (in my bed)
Uh huh. How can you not go dirty mind on THAT one? *groal*
When I read it, I instantly liked what it said!
I want to SOAR...I am so ready for this divorce thing to get moving. To have some direction, to get my plans in order. I don't know what in the HELL is taking so long. Seriously. I can't get my lawyer to return my call. I am getting frustrated.
Frustrating because it is completely out of my control right now.
I want to SOAR and my lawyer has a hold of my feet, dragging me to a crawling pace.
*argh*
Jodi P rocks! Lifetime made a movie out of "The Tenth Circle".
ReplyDeleteDivorce sucks, especially ones that take forever. Hang in there!
I love your blog. (in my bed)
Did you know starting post titles with 'in my bed' dramatically boosts readership? That's backed by no real empirical research...
ReplyDeleteLOVE Jodi Picoult! I just read Tenth Circle also and am now reading Salem Falls. I want to read all her stuff :-)
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel about soaring and being held down, I'm there with ya sister!
want me to break his kneecaps?
ReplyDeleteArrggh indeed. I'll have to check out that Jodi Picoult. Sounds interesting!
ReplyDeleteYou aren't going to believe this but my word ver = "reads"
Way to go Blogger! (insert sarcasm)
I think it is rude not to say "in my bed", especially when I am in my bed.
ReplyDeleteKick loose of the lawyer and then soar. Imagine flying above it all. That always helps me.
ReplyDeleteI learned something new today - didn't know about the in my bed part. Will have to remember that from now on.
ReplyDeleteAs a side note- 34? Now I feel old! I'll be 39 ( for real ) this year.
Soar, girl! That lawyer is just hemming for more money...they love doing that. I did my own divorce. (I had no real issues, he came in with nothing, he left with some stuff, that he bought, so I know it's more difficult when ya have things to divy or what not)
ReplyDeleteI love fortune cookies and fortunes. Somehow they always seem to fit.
Ahem...old? try 56!
I will now be adding in my bed to all fortunes. They used to be boring, now, FUN.
ReplyDeleteLawyers don't get a bad rap for nothing. :)
How long has it been? It took my sister over a year. She finally got it finalized this month but they filed a year ago August.
ReplyDeleteEffin' lawyer!!
ReplyDeleteI have dived into my first book since the Twilight series and I love it!
I'm on hold for Jodi P's newest book. I can't wait. I read the Twilight Series. I kind of struggled to finish it and the movie, I thought, was disappointing. Pass an eggroll would ya?
ReplyDeleteI thought i was the only one that liked the taste of fortune cookies.
ReplyDeleteI hope that your divorce gets a move on.
Just so you know, Twilight is an addiction...in my bed.
ReplyDeleteI've had the perfect fortune cookie fortune already. "You like Chinese food"... but I still look forward to one that's better.
ReplyDeleteIt'll never happen.
I've always loved the 'in bed' addition. So fitting! :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I loved the Twilight series. I liked the first one quite a bit, read it in just a few days. Decided I wanted to know what happens, started the 2nd book and finished it AND the other 2 in the next two days (while taking care of my house and three little ones!). I loved it. I am actually reading it again right now because I am sure that I missed some things while I was zipping through it the first time!
We always just said "in bed." Either way it's still pretty entertaining.
ReplyDeleteMy wife is reading Twilight right now. I think I may have to check it out too.
Oh, I feel your pain. I have soooo been there. Good luck - it'll happen [in bed]... ha ha!
ReplyDeleteHahaha, we say IN BED too. Makes the fortunes all that much funnier. Now divorce proceedings, they are not funny, even IN BED.
ReplyDeleteHappy St Paddy's Day!
funny fortune cookies!!!
ReplyDeletei am so glad you are reading twilight. i loved it. careful though, it will suck you in and you will find yourself throwing cheerios at the kids just to get them to let you read 5 more min... well, i've heard that might happen...i'm sure that I didn't ignore my kids for hours on end while i read...nope, not me.
