Fate and Fortune

The moments of our days weave together to form tapestries of fate and fortune.

A little under-profound perhaps, but very poignant is the story of a day of my friend Bryan.

While home-ridden and suffering from a hangover, he receives a call from me to help me get my giant American television home from Costco.  Reluctant to leave his house at all, he agrees to help a friend in need.

We get it home and set it up, play a few video games, and then he decides to head back to his own couch (our friend Mike was with him, also hungover, also helping me move my giant American television).

On their way home they decide that maybe a caesar is in order, so they swing into a casino for the cocktails.

One caesar down they flip coin to decide whether a second is needed.

Heads, another.

While waiting for their next drinks, he decides to play the casino machine and promptly wins $800.

Yes, fate and fortune exist somewhere within their tapestries of moments.
