Man, was gonna skip this horoscope stuff today. Had my morning coffee boiling hot and thought “whatever” about the whole September 30th worry thing. But my buddy Dave texted me freaking out about some deadline then, and I was like fine, fine, let’s just open the dang horoscope app. Felt kinda stupid doing it honestly.
Getting Into the Weirdness
Scrolled straight to Capricorn like always. Needed something practical, you know? Predictions said stuff like:
- Financial decisions might haunt you – Right on cue remembered that credit card bill coming due October 1st. Ugh.
- Unexpected help from an old contact – Shrugged it off until my college roommate messaged outta the blue about a freelance gig.
- Don’t ignore your gut feeling before month’s end – Weirdly, that nagging feeling about scheduling that dentist appointment? Happened at 11 PM.
Started jotting notes in my bullet journal with cheap red pen. Scribbled “SEPT 30” circled big time with “$$$” and “DENTIST” under it. Phone buzzed – it was my sister wanting to reschedule dinner for… yep, September 30th. Spilled coffee on my keyboard when it hit me. Freaking weird.
Putting It into Action
Figured I might as well play along since these coincidences were stacking up. Did three things:
First, called my credit card company asking about payment extensions. Got this super chill rep named Brenda who pushed the due date to October 7th, no fee. Legit breathed easier.
Second, texted back my roommate saying “HELL YES” to that gig. Set a reminder to send him portfolio stuff tomorrow morning.
Third, booked that dentist online at midnight like a lunatic. Used my emergency card and everything.
Even messaged Dave telling him about my weird day. He called it “spooky helpful bullshit.” Laughed my butt off at that.
Afterthoughts Over Whiskey
Sipping Evan Williams neat around 1 AM at my sticky desk. Still think horoscopes sound like fortune cookie nonsense most days. But dang. Today? Felt like someone handed me a checklist. Might check this thing again tomorrow. Or maybe not. Dunno. Still got that weird aftertaste in my brain.
