  Taurus
  Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
  Chances are good that you'll be keeping yourself pretty busy today,
  dear Taurus. The energetic aspects that are happening can really have
  you raring to take on chores that need to be done. Can you think of a
  better thing to do on a day off? Well, okay but still once you've
  finished these things, there should be plenty of time to do something
  recreational too. Make the most of this great day to get into both
  work and play.
  
  
  Gemini
  Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
  Today, dear Gemini, why not take some much deserved rest and
  relaxation? After all, even you need to slow down once in a while. If
  there are some things you really need to care of, you can still make
  plans for recreation afterwards. Spoil yourself with a nap or
  ordering out for dinner. Visit with some of your favorite people,
  take a leisurely walk or a long bath. Take care of yourself by
  resting as well as accomplishing.

  Skate nite was fun. Holly and I skated for about an hour and a half,
  maybe a little more, then went to Chili's for drinks --Holly had a
  Jamaican Margarita and I had a Chambord 1800 margarita. Chambord is
  The Stuff. It just goes with everything. I am usually a big margarita
  purist--tequila, lime juice, Triple Sec or Cointreau, ice, salt on
  the rim of the glass, and that's it. BUT, Chambord was a nice
  addition.
  
  I got to skate during the couples skate. This guy, Jim, introduced
  himself to us. He teaches. Nice guy. Turns out we are both Air Force
  brats. Pretty cool. Saw a couple of folks I recognized from No
  Kidding skate nite, which was nice.
  
  On the way to taking Holly back to my aunt & uncle's house, I noticed
  that 107.7 was playing all kinds of cool music: Morrissey, Siouxie,
  Sisters of Mercy, NIN. The DJ, "Max Power" was all goofy and kept
  saying "Howdy" and "yee-ha" and just being overly cheerful for all
  the good gothy music he was playing. It was an amusing contrast. I
  guess I should stay up late more often.
  
  Today after work, I'll be taking Holly to get her hair cut. She has
  it dyed this gorgeous platinum color. And since she's blonde anyway,
  it looks totally natural. *sigh*

  Had my annual review today. Got 'outstanding' overall. my production
  is erratic. Some days I'll get 30 some days I'll get 90. I need to
  work on being consistent. Not that hard to hit 70, maybe I'll try to
  hit around there.
  
  No $ for raises, as far as Janice knows, but I will be in line for
  one if our dept gets any money in the new budget Sept/Oct-ish. Not
  holding my breath.
  
  Whatever whatever.
