Que sera sera

Confession time: You know what I have done with every person I've dated since the second grade?  The AEIOU12345 game.  You know, where you write out each other's names, add up the vowels, cross out duplicates, and uncover the magic number representing your relationship prospects - the lower the number the better!  If the number isn't to your liking, of course, you can try again using middle names or nicknames.

Let's see,

Ace Hardware

  A  E  I  O  U

   1  2  3  4  5

+ 4  3  0  2  0

________

  5  5  3  6  5

36!  Not too bad!  Maybe we have a chance after all.

I'm actually not kidding, even as a grownup, when I've had my eye on a guy, I inevitably at some point 'run the numbers' to see whether it's worth a shot.

So you can imagine, I was tickled pink when I came across the online version of the old MASH game.  Something about coming up with the choices (including a few dingers) is as fun as poking through a box of assorted chocolates.  So many possible futures are good, just different flavors of good. 

		I will marry Ace.
		After a wild honeymoon, We will settle down in Bangkok in our fabulous House.
		We will have 2 kid(s) together.
		Our family will zoom around in a Pink Electric Vehicle.
		I will spend my days as a Housewife, and live happily ever after.

Try it out, and let me know your future!  (Don't worry, it doesn't seem to make you sign your friends up or anything.)  I mean, at least you're guaranteed a wild honeymoon.

I've never heard of this type of soothsaying.

Did you ever do OUR names together??

All fortune-telling games pale in front of the apple-stem. I still say a letter of the alphabet for every twist of the apple before the stem breaks off at G.

Hee. Colin Firth and I will be living in a shack in London with our two adorable kids. We drive a blue Honda Accord and I'm a freelance writer. Not bad.
