445 Horoscopes

  Went to bed around 8:30 last nite. Wierd dreams. May have finally
  gotten enough sleep.
  
  I want to get into silk painting, but it seems like there's alot of
  steps that are only implied and/or assumed that you already know in
  the silk painting book I have. I may try and get a different book at
  the library today.
  
  sarongs are on sale 2 for $20 at World Market. I want to go to ULTA
  anyway this weekend, so maybe I'll go to both places,since they're
  sorta close together. I want more ginger body wash from ULTA and some
  all-day lipstick (outlast or whatever). And sarongs. Now that I have
  a better idea what to do with 'em. :)
  
  I did my pilates/yoga DVD last nite; yoga for flexibility first
  then 'total body' pilates. I like the mix and match option; it's way
  cool.
  
  
  Taurus
  Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
  Wow, something has definitely gotten in to you, dear Taurus, because
  you are looking gorgeous! It is more than just the new clothes or
  makeup that you may have invested in recently. You have an inner
  confidence and glow that is quite noticeable. If you are currently
  involved with someone special, expect to be swept off your feet
  tonight. If there isn't a significant someone in your life, keep your
  eyes open today. As you walk down the street you are bound to receive
  admiring glances. One of those glances you might want to return.
  
  
  Gemini
  Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
  Romance is in the air today, dear Gemini, so make an extra effort
  with your grooming so you look your best. No one is immune to the
  positive vibes in the air. At the office, your coworkers are
  especially chatty, and one colleague in particular may pay you just a
  bit too much attention. You are in the driver's seat as far as new
  relationships are concerned. It may be that you are perfectly happy
  with your current situation. But if you are not, there is a definite
  possibility that today someone will capture your interest, if not
  your heart

    fucking post office igmos.
    
    Did you know that you CANT get delivery confirmation for "standard/
    parcel post" mail even though the delivery confirmation sticker and
    all the signs in the post office say you CAN?
    
    So, I go to the post office to mail a small package this a.m. and I
    want to get delivery conf, because it's a Magpies thing, and I get to
    the desk and say "I need to send this the least expensive way"....the
    stupid postal bitch STARTS TO PEEL THE DELIVERY CONFIRMATION TAG
    OFF!!! "No," says I "I need it the least expensive way WITH delivery
    confirmation." so she tells me that I HAVE to send it priority if I
    want delivery confirmation. WTF. and then keeps telling me how much
    it's gonna be. "OK OK" I say and she keeps telling me it's going to
    be 3.90 in this argumentative tone. "FINE FINE FINE, I say, I just
    needed it the least expensive way WITH DELIVERY CONFIRMATION and I
    thought you could send standard mail, like it says on the tag" "No,
    no she says, you gots ta send it priority an that's 3.90."
    
    FINE Jesus fucking goddamn crappity christ.
    
    It's irritating that the postal service advertises products and
    services that are NOT actually obtainable.
    ===========================
    The tent I want from Panther primitives (basically the only thing
    that would enable me to display my stained glass in sunlight)
    
    $1248 but only ONLY 996.40 wtih 'excalibur' discount and $2 refund
    for catalog. shit

  last nite was Tom's "first Thursday" with all the VW Aircooler
  people. He goes in the Ghia, so it's not like I want to go with him,
  but he didn't even ask. :( Stupid of me to feel left out and left
  behind, but I do.

  I went to the library at lunch time & turned in my books from last
  time. Not impressed with the crying of lot 49--Pynchon may be a
  master of satire & puns, but his settings and characterizations lack
  something. People talk and you have no idea who they are or where
  they came from. There will be a conversation in progress for pages
  and then you discover that they're on a yacht with a bunch of
  anarchists who have stolen the boat from the rightful owner, some
  gangland mafioso dude....whatever. I have to know WHERE people are
  and WHO people are before I can care what they're talking about.
  
  Here's what I got this trip:
  Primary Colors - Anonymous
  Marrying the Mistress- Joanna Trollope
  The Cobra Event - Richard Preston
  Stained Glass - Kay Bain Weiner
  Step by Step Crafts Stained Glass, Lynette Wrigley
  Stained Glass projects & patterns- tornel & shannon
  Tie Dye! The how-to book - Virginia gleser
  Transforming Fabric - Carilyn Dahl
