Mystery Chinese Theater

I didn't tell you, did I, about going to the Chinese restaurant I went to this past week? It was pretty pedestrian, as Chinese restaurants go--as Chinese restaurants almost invariably are, in the South--but the fortune I got in my cookie was delightful, if inexplicable. It says this, in toto:

:) We are happy together. :)

This, I believe, is my all-time favorite fortune. I am using it as a bookmark now. I am saving it forever.

That? Is an awesome fortune. Fortune cookies aren't really a big thing over here, but when I've been in America and had them, my fortunes have always been disappointingly mundane. All you really need is something as simple as "We are happy together".

<3!

I feel that they were speaking of me and my child bride. :*

It must. When are you going to move to an undisclosed midwestern location?

You find me a job, and I will be there. But not at Deere; I'm afraid it looks as though Deere does not want me.

I wish I could, my Darling. Have you found me one in GA yet?

:(( :(( :((

Not unless you want to work in a bookstore. The people are lovely--I vouch for their kindly welcome--but the pay is shit.

I'll keep looking, okay?

I can teach, remember. Surely there are districts struggling to find elementary school teachers.

:D rock.

My favorite fortune was "your day will be filled with excitement and adventure!"

Later that day, I had a flat tire. -.-!

I think you are allowed to sue, under such circumstances! >:|
