(This is just meant to be lighthearted.)

On my way home after a long week, a chonky orange crossed my path. Lucky me! I think?

You're getting laid by a red head! Which may or may not be a treat, depending on your sexuality.

[–] Beebabe@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Given I’ve been on a dry spell for several years now, sounds like a divine blessing.

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 3 points 3 hours ago

You'll be lucky. Whether it's good luck or bad luck is uncertain.

You will get a lot of lasagna and only read unfunny boomer memes for a month.

Not far from reality, hate mondays, love pasta.

You will enter a room, forget why you went there, go back to where you came from, and realized you misplaced your phone along the way. And at the worst possible moment you will be unable to solve 6x7 in your head.

temporary buff: -20% to intelligence, +10% dopeyness, and +25% happiness

You will make an unexpected friend.

He gained one brain cell, you lost one. You made a cat smarter.

Tail up or tail horizontal? This makes all the difference

[–] Beebabe@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

It was up, and it gave me side eye

[–] Greg@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 hour ago

Oh that's terrible news. The tail means you're going to stub your toe on something really hard and the side eye means you're going to have your taxes audited 😬

orange

You will be making illogical decisions today

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 8 points 7 hours ago

They will be entertaining as well.

[–] MagicShel@lemmy.zip 18 points 8 hours ago

reading the portents: You will have fewer rodents and birds in your life.

[–] PoorYorick@lemmy.world 14 points 8 hours ago

You will be really excited to tell someone important news today, then forget what you wanted to say as soon as you see them.

A craving for an orange creamsicle (go with it and satisfy that craving - creamsicles are delicious)
