  Horoscopes
  
  Taurus
  Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
  Your life could well be totally transformed in some way, dear Taurus.
  Money may have something to do with it. Primarily, however, the
  factors involved probably include the release of emotional baggage
  that's been holding you back for a long time, and the healing of old
  wounds that have remained open for years. Often such issues stand in
  the way of our attaining our most cherished goals. Let go, and make
  the most of it!
  
  Gemini
  Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
  A change in the status of a relationship may take place, dear Gemini.
  A friendship may turn into romance, a casual romance into a committed
  one, a committed one into marriage. A casual acquaintance could also
  become a business partner. This should make a positive difference for
  you; the only downside to this is that you may act without
  considering all the contingencies. If, after careful consideration,
  you still feel this is for you, go for it.

  Saturday: nobody showed up for garbing. I wasted my whole day waiting
  around for people. Went to bed around 9 or maybe earlier.
  
  Sunday: woke up around 10:30, drank coffee, called over to L&b's
  around noon, did Taco Cabana & shopping with everyone. Bitched about
  UB. Not really much fun.
  
  Monday: don't remember when I got up, sat around drinking coffee,
  reading pern books again, then Tom & I went to Bull Creek park around
  3. I took sodas & water. We swam, walked, talked, had a nice time,
  despite the fact that I began the day in a pissy mood.
  (read 'miserable' entry for enlightenment, if you like), then we went
  home, took a shower in which Tom was randy, went to the County Line
  for dinner, then back home for actual randyness, then went to sleep.
  Woke up around 4:30 a.m. Felt fine. Sweetie was sweet, made coffee &
  walked Nickie with me, gave me a ride to work. Life is good. When it
  doesn't suck.
  
  Dreamt about the B bards sunday nite, something about Schlitterbahn
  and almost doing it with Mark and Andrew getting a non-piercing ring
  on his ....stuff. and showing it to me. And some friend of theirs who
  also showed me his....stuff. Wierd.
  
  Got an email from my dad about Thanksgiving. Tom & I talked about it
  and still don't have a plan. It's a 36 hour drive each way to his HS
  reunion which takes place that weekend, which comes to 3 days driving
  during a 4 day weekend. Can we do this? sure. Do we WANT to? Nopers.
  But I don't want to cook Birthday Turkey for X, either. Lynn says
  she can come to Thanksgiving lunch at their house. Sounds like a plan.

  featured on POE, a site called "Disturbing Yahoo Profiles". It's
  down, of course, but checking out the cache revealed
  http://profiles.yahoo.com/therealgalen
  and said he has a very 'disturbing' briefcase.
  I think he's one of the posters on austin poly. Hm. Will have to
  check out when not at work.

      I have not been to the yoga sessions at the OTO temple
      for the past couple of months because we cannot bring
      children. S and I are maried now and we have an
      apartment in Austin. Have you been going to the OTO
      temple for yoga? I mailed my registration for the CMA
      Samhain. S, the two children and I went to the
      PNO last month. We enjoyed that. I suppose we will go
      to the PNO in September also. We like meeting people
      from the pagan community.

      I wrote back and suggested he get a sitter. I hate it that people
      give up their lives & interests for kids. That SUCKS.
      
      Ah well. Whatever whatever.

        Instead of wallowing in misery because the dreckmore geeks don't want
        me and the afr people don't like me, and the central TX rennies dont'
        like me and the TRF invasion group & PNO folk are indifferent.
        
        Instead...why not focus on who/what exactly is rejecting me here.
        Drunks, kids, dregs of society....so who gives a rat's ass what a
        bunch of greasy nasty bad smelling idiots think of me?
        
        The polys, who generally seem to like me, are also a very nice,
        smart, attractive, good-smelling bunch of people.
        
        Dee & Rio are my friends. Rhonnie could be. They're all nice folks.
        Cute & smart.
        
        I need more friends.
        
        I don't know how to find any.
