If there’s one person I know who always tries to look on the sunny side of life, it’s… me.

But it seems the more I work on my positive, optimistic spirit, the more I am challenged and tested.

Take for instance, the last few weeks…

My family’s been feeling the financial crunch ever since our August vacation in Europe. I guess it’s the American way to enjoy now and pay later. So now, we’re paying for it all right.

On RBJ’s tagboard someone started quoting bad fortunes from bad fortune cookies. Sort of a fun thing to do that can lighten our misfortunes of the day. Matter of fact, I came upon badcookie.com for those who can’t get enough bad fortune in their lives… you can visit the site and have a whole slew of bad fortunes dished out to you!

Anyways, a few real-life bad fortunes dished out to me recently…

1. my laptop still needs to be fixed

2. microwave oven is broken

3. had a library fee of $98.00 for a lost book that was late

4. my car is going to need some major repair soon

Other than that, everything is peachy-keen and hunky-doree!
