So I grabbed that Virgo tips post earlier today thinking, “Yeah right, stars tell me how to organize socks.” But hey, desperate times call for weird measures. Had a messy Tuesday brewing already – forgot my coffee thermos, inbox looked like a troll exploded in it. Figured why not try this starry nonsense step-by-step? Here’s exactly what went down:
The “Before” Disaster Zone
First, glared at my kitchen counter. Looked like a paper avalanche hit a coffee mug collection. My planner? Last updated… sometime before Netflix dropped that true crime doc. Sighed real loud. This Virgo stuff claims Mercury helps tidy minds. Mine felt like scrambled eggs.
Actually Doing the Silly Steps
Scrolled through the tips. Made my eyeballs itch with all that “cosmic energy” talk. But okay, fine. Did it anyway:
- Tip 1: Clean one physical space – Grabbed the scary junk drawer. Dumped everything on the floor. Found 37 pens (3 worked), expired coupons from 2019, and a single weirdly clean sock. Tossed 80% of it. Felt… less like a garbage goblin.
- Tip 2: Write three priorities for the week – Scribed on a napkin: “1. Pay electricity bill (seriously). 2. Actually reply to Mom’s texts. 3. Figure out what that weird fridge smell is.” Wrote it in purple marker for ~vibes~.
- Tip 3: Review meeting schedule Sunday night – Opened my calendar app. Realized I had a dentist appointment TOMORROW I totally forgot. Cursed Mercury under my breath. Maybe the stars saved my teeth?
Midweek Reality Check
By Wednesday? Electricity got paid (small miracle). Mom got a text (sent her a meme, counts right?). Fridge smell… turned out to be forgotten potatoes liquefying. Cosmic help = zero points there. But my junk drawer stayed clean-ish! And hey, dentist didn’t yell at me.
Did Stars Fix My Life?
Nah. My car still needs an oil change and that inbox is growing sentience. BUT the napkin priorities kept me from panic-napping Tuesday afternoon. Tiny win? Virgos might be onto something with this “do one small thing” jazz. Or maybe just writing stuff down works. Who knows. Still skeptical about Mercury… but I might check the drawer again tomorrow. Just in case.
