Waking Up & Checking the Stars
Rolled outta bed around 7am today feeling kinda blah. Made my coffee extra strong, remembered it’s May 26th – my Sagittarius day! Grabbed my phone still half-asleep, mumbled “alright stars, what you got for me today?” while scrolling through my usual horoscope spots. Saw the headline screaming “LUCKY MOVES” in all caps like some lottery ticket. Huh. Decided screw it, let’s play along.
The Plan from the Stars
Main things that popped out for Sagittarius today:
- Lucky color: Deep orange, like sunset kinda orange
- Action move: Pitch that wild idea at work before noon
- People vibe: Talk to someone wearing green, they’ll help somehow
- Risk zone: Avoid saying yes to lunch invites (weird, right?)
Chuckled at the lunch warning cause Jimmy always bugs me for tacos on Mondays. Threw on this ugly burnt-orange hoodie I never wear – felt like a traffic cone but hey, stars said so. Made sure my keys clipped onto that faded orange keychain too for extra luck juice.
Testing This Stuff IRL
At the office, spotted Erica’s mint-green sweater immediately. Usually just do the “morning” nod but today dragged her over coffee machine like “HEY! Thoughts on this project hack?” Started word-vomiting that half-brained dashboard idea I’ve had since last month. She actually nodded slow, then said “damn… that could work.” Grabbed a sticky note from her desk (green sticky note counts!) and sketched it together.
11:45am, marched into Dave’s office before courage died. Pitched it messy but honest – hands sweating in my orange pockets. He rubbed his chin… then said “build a prototype by Friday.” Walked out dizzy.
12:30pm sharp, Jimmy pops over grinning “Taco run?” Opened my mouth but remembered – snapped it shut. Made up some “stomach thing” excuse. Dude looked so bummed I almost caved.
How This Weird Experiment Ended
Honestly? That dashboard idea never leaves my brain usually. Having that green sticky note with Erica’s scribbles made it real somehow. Jimmy texted later saying his car broke down right after lunch run invite – missed the whole breakdown chaos cause I bailed. Coincidence? Maybe. Still wearing this stupid orange hoodie though.
