My plan tonight was to go out and meet friends at Khan’s Mongolian Barbecue, one of my favoritest restaurants ever. Yummy, yummy food. However, there are two locations in the Twin Cities—Richfield and Roseville—and I accidentally went to the wrong one. Oops…
As it turned out, that wasn’t an entirely bad thing. I was wandering around inside the restaurant looking for said friends and suddenly heard, “SHAWN!” I looked down and saw Matthew Feeney sitting in a chair right in front of me. He stood up and gave me a hug, then offered me a fortune cookie that the waiter had brought. Hey, I wasn’t gonna turn down a free fortune…
It wasn’t until later that I found out I’d gone to the wrong restaurant, but that cookie made the mistake totally worthwhile. I opened the cookie, ate it, then took a look at the fortune inside. We were playing the “in bed” game, adding that to the ends of the fortunes, and this has to be the best I’ve ever seen:
You will be happiest if you please yourself first.
HAHAHA class!
