What Happens Next?

Last week on the plane to San Antonio, while attempting to catch up on my celebrity gossip by reading Life and Style Magazine, I came across a page of horoscopes.  Now I am fully aware of the fact that no one is really able to predict what will happen in the future but it’s always nice to think that maybe, just maybe, you can have some little bit of insight into what might be coming for you.

No matter how stupid you think astrology is, I guarantee you that if you see a page of horoscopes, you will at least glace at yours, which of course I did.  My Pisces prediction said that a cute guy would flirt with me, let it go to your head.  Two days later, a very cute guy did in fact flirt with me and I will admit that I have been on a little boy high since. 

Tonight, while walking through Target, I stopped just out of curiosity to check this week’s issue of Life and Style.  According to the gossip rag, this week I am supposed to treat myself to something.  I put the magazine back on the shelf and looked down at my wrist.  This afternoon, prior to my Target visit, I splurged and bought myself the watch I had been wanting for months. 

Now I know that all of these things are just consciences but wouldn’t it be nice if they were actually signs?  Wouldn’t it be nice to know that even if it’s just one little hint at our future, it’s still something telling us what might be coming our way?  As I walked to my car, I couldn’t help but think, I wonder what happens next?  I guess I should get a subscription.
