Midweek Horrors! Cope!

:-D

Wednesday August 17, 2006
Provided by Astrology.com

Your continued effort in a new relationship -- either professional or personal -- will pay off in a big way today. Expect a phone call or email that will connect all the dots and finalize a new direction for both of you. This alliance signifies more than an opportunity for progress -- this is a new opportunity for you to express a side of yourself that doesn't get a lot of exposure. You are growing, and right now it's the people in your life who are nurturing that growth.

Zooweeeeeee you're back! sorta. Good luck on your new job, I know you'll get it. As for myself, I think I might soon become a telemarketing whore or a Tech support drone. It's a pretty nice deal this side of the river and now I'll be able to buy stuff I want :) and y'know have something else to do. Nice seeing you and I expect more posts here, I need daily lunacy :(

Astrology.com is never wrong you know! Pretty cool when even the published world (ooops, I meant "word" of course - Freudian slip!) is on your side! Grin...

...unless you are struck by a sack of anvils falling from a 10 story building.

Lol, Schnubel. Thanks for the good luck; I send you well wishes to not become a telemarketing whore or tech support drone but that you find a career you'll enjoy. :-) And hurrah to more stuff for you, lol.

By the way, are you calling me a lunatic? I'm insane and inane, not loony. Maybe. ;-)

EC: If you only knew how often I wished my horrors! cope! was more accurate! :-) In this case, I did indeed get the offer letter and another mound of paperwork. Eek! lol. And tee hee on your (Freudian) slip. ;-)

PK: I'm sad, sad, sad that you would even think of a sack of anvils falling from a 10-story building onto my defenseless self. sniff sniff.

Actually, that might not be as farfetched as you might think. A building has gone up opposite my office building (my window faces it) -- The thing isn't even completed and I already see lots of signs of what appear to be chunks missing from the concrete between floors. :-O Egads!
