You can find my story here at Friday Flash Fiction.

My fortune cookie today tells me to, “Take risks, not naps.” At first, I thought how stupid these fortunes get. But afterward, I thought, “Maybe it was right.”

So, I:

Left my spouse, went to Vegas, gambled our savings, lost it all, drank, fought out my anger, lost again, had to pee, no bathroom in sight, went outside, the police saw me, took me away, sobered up, got my phone call, called my spouse, didn’t answer, sat in a cell, thought to myself, “When I get out, I’m going to call that fortune cookie number and suggest better fortunes.”
