458wierd dreams & stuff

  I slept in today; called in sick. Mostly so I can get car stuff taken
  care of: 2 estimates, new windshield wipers & air filter and
  inspection. I think I will do the wipers filter & inspection first.
  
  I can't remember my dreams much. Somethign about the cruise.
  Something about my right ear being full of black stuff (it did hurt
  once when I woke up). Something about fruit trees in my front yard
  and losing my steamer trunk.
  
  Hm.
  
  Taurus
  Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
  Worries about money could cause you to work yourself up into a heavy
  emotional state, dear Taurus. This isn't very productive, especially
  since you're likely to be overreacting and the situation isn't
  anywhere near as serious as you're starting to believe. Come down to
  earth, look at your accounts, and try to get beyond your feelings and
  view the situation as it really is. You'll probably be relieved! Then
  deal with it in an appropriate manner. Hang in there!

  Haha. I know exactly how much money I have--about $250. I need about
  $50 worth of groceries for camping nxt weekend, about $10 worth of
  groceries for the poly picnic this weekend, maybe $40 or $50 for
  going to San Antonio on Sunday to hang w/ Rio, $30 for winshield
  wipers, $12 for inspection, $? for air filter, (at least $20 I would
  imagine), $15 or so for gas money for the weekend of beltane, $100 or
  so for the weekend of Andrew's Wedding.....and, viola, you see that I
  NEED more than I HAVE. Unless L&B left me $$ for catsitting, I am
  going to be abusing the plastic hardcore. Oh, I could possibly get my
  IRS refund back in the mail sometime between now and the wedding, but
  I will not be holding my breath too hard.

  Gemini
  Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
  Career matters may be weighing on your mind today, dear Gemini,
  particularly if there is some sort of vast upheaval going on at the
  workplace. You might be considering not only a job change, but also a
  total change in profession. A friend might propose that the two of
  you start a business together, and this could be a possibility. This
  is not the day to make a decision, however. You may be too
  emotionally wrought-up. Wait a day or so.

  ??? I ordered the books for my paralegal class from amazon.com
  yesterday. and I was idly thinking what it would be like to work in
  the same office as Jen. I think I had a nightmare about working in
  the same office as SIL. &/or about hugging her...nekkid. I have some
  creepy dreams about that beeyotch.
  
  Career matters. Feh.

    got 2 estimates. Between 550-650 bucks for the repair. I still have
    the appointment at 8am on Saturday for the 3rd one. I will get that
    one and then get with Jenny and see how she wants to handle the next
    step.
    
    Got my car inspected; they said all my fluid levels were low and I
    should bitch at whoever was supposed to have checked them at the oil
    change place. Because they didn't, obviously.
    
    Got windshield wipers & installed them. Got a new air filter. Didn't
    install that, need a ratchet wrench thingy to get the housing off.
    
    Got camping stuff at Academy--got a small 1 person sized tent for 20
    bucks==A LOT less than I was expecting to spend! So I got out my
    fabric paints and did it up with all kinds a goofy pagan stuff. The
    message, I hope, will be very clear: I am here to be pagan with ya'll
    but only one person sleeps in this tent-ME.
    
    I typed up my Beltane recipes: stew, onion shortbread, oatcakes,
    personality punch & "Wine and song"--which is basically sangria,
    champagne, and fruit juice.
    
    Got a birth announcement from Doug P AKA bithole surfer from
    Timemuse/TIM. They had a little boy at the end of March. Ryan, 9 lbs
    at birth! Great picture of the baby; he looks like a real human and
    not some squashy wierd thing. Very cute. I went by the Harley store
    and got some baby stuff--little sockies, 2 rompers and a 'sweetpea'
    with a tiger-face shaped washcloth. Very cute. I'll send those off
    tomorrow. I'm so happy for him and K. I know they were trying and
    I know it must have broken their hearts to miscarry the first two
    babies. So I'm super happy for em/ I was crying and laughing all the
    way from the post office to the harley store. I'm a sap!!
