cell phone fortune

I signed up for cell phone alerts recently. Partly because it sounded like a nifty idea, but mostly because they're free. I chose weather and horoscopes. The weather's quite boring. Occasionally I'll hit the wrong key and get yesterday's weather by mistake. No worries, it's all the same.

The horoscope, which I thought I'd be canceling within a day or two, turns out to be a bit of a perk. Sort of a horoscope crossed with the cell phone version of a fortune cookie. F'rinstance:

Don't pressure yourself into being "normal." Follow your instincts.
or

and my favorite so far...
The thing that scares you most is the thing you need to pursue.

The really odd thing is that I think the universe is telling me something. I've been feeling a crux point coming up. Gotta be ready for it....it's bad form to swerve for the exit at the last minute. Leaves you with your heart beating too fast, and the other motorists all sending anger in your general direction.

Ugh. Is there a good return policy for metaphors? Lately, I don't seem to be getting my money's worth.
