Obtuse Fortune of the Day
J1, K1, and I grabbed dinner at Lily's tonight because we were starving after they finished choir practice. Lily's is always a source of QUICK, reasonably good, cheap Chinese food. Maybe it was just because I was famished tonight, but the food tasted so good!
Anyway, we got the check and of course it was accompanied by fortune cookies. Only these fortune cookies come from the weird-ass fortune cookie factory. All of us got pretty weird fortunes -- they're not really even fortunes, but more observations on life -- but mine was particularly weird.
"As I grow to understand life less and less, I learn to live it more and more."
First of all, like I said above, that's not a FORTUNE. It's someone trying to be profound. But it's the typical attempt a profundity that tries way too hard to be smart, leaving something that is basically meaningless.
