A little story about when my cards were technically very accurate and I was still annoyed about it 😭

Discussion

​

So, I needed to buy a new laptop, and I wanted my brother to come with me because he understands tech way better than I do. I called him and asked if he could come with me, but he was busy, so the whole thing kept getting delayed. Eventually, we decided we would go on a particular day.

That day came and, of course, he was busy again. He was busy in the afternoon, so I thought maybe we could just go in the evening. At this point I was already annoyed because I had been waiting and I just wanted to buy my laptop already.

So naturally, I asked my cards, “Will he call me regarding the laptop?”

I got Letter.

For a moment I was really happy because Letter literally represents communication, messages, news, etc. So I was like okayyy, he's going to call me and we're finally going to get this laptop.

And then I realised something.

I asked if he would call me. I did not ask if I would actually get to buy the laptop.

So I asked again, “Will I buy the laptop today?”

And I got Snake, which can represent delays, complications, and things not going smoothly.

Within maybe 30 minutes, my brother actually called me.

And what was the call about? He told me he was going on a completely impromptu trip with his friends, so we would have to buy the laptop after the weekend.

So basically, the cards were like: yes, he will call you. And I was like yayyy, laptop!! Meanwhile the cards were probably sitting there like, that's literally not what you asked.

I was honestly so impressed by the accuracy while also being absolutely devastated because my laptop was STILL delayed 😭
