Give me a sign

[topum]

I was in one of the nearby towns and was thinking whether to have a couple of pints or not. I needed a sign. I looked around and the first thing I saw was this:



I took as a clear "yes, you should sit here and have a couple of pints while responding to your emails" sign (I was born in Copenhagen). And so I did. Between me and you though, I would have done it anyway. Even if that umbrella had "No. Absolutely not. Don't even think about it." in huge red letters on it instead of "Copenhagen". I don't believe in signs and omens so I cherry pick only the ones that help me do what I wanted to do anyway and ignore the rest.

Ha!  Cool.  I bet those beer tasted better though with the added bonus of the sign.  Even though you didn't need the sign to make the decision as you already made it before the sign.  Basically the sign was the universe agreeing with your decision to have a few beer.   Or maybe it was synchronicity.  The universe was aligned with your decision. 

Either way if the beer was nice and cold who cares about signs.

I like how you think ). You must be great to have a couple of pints with.

I'm lots of fun.  If you're ever in Canada on the Atlantic side let me know we'll go have a few beer at one of the local pubs.  Or if you can swing by New Orleans next month we can go for a few then go tease the local voodoo priests.

I won't be in the US next month but Canada is on my list, I haven't seen much there. And after the appropriate amount of alcohol we will find voodoo priests to pick on in Canada too.

Ha! Yes I'm sure we'll find a few priests here to tease after a few beer.

You saw straight through me, I actually had three.

"I would have done it anyway."

That's what I call iron character.

I like how I both succumbed to the drinking temptation and earned the title of a man of iron character at the same time.

All you have to do is claim that anything you want to do, God wants you to do, and anything you don't, the Devil is behind.

That tactic has been so overused that I decided a while ago that I would never resort to it.

[randomdreams.livejournal.com]

I use it ironically quite often.
