Taurus
Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
The desire for an intimate encounter with a love partner should be
stronger today than it has been for a long time, dear Taurus. You're
not only feeling passionate and sensual, you're probably also feeling
very romantic, like a fairy-tale princess. If you're currently
involved, schedule an evening alone with your partner. If you're
single, however, this could pose problems. You may have to settle for
a romantic video and a long hot bubble bath!

Gemini
Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
If you're currently involved romantically, dear Gemini, don't be
surprised if your significant other feels especially sensual and
passionate, and wants nothing more than an intimate evening alone
with you. You, however, might be tired and want nothing more than to
crash on the bed and sleep. There may seem to be no resolving this
without one person being less than happy. Try to talk it out. If
you're single - no problem! Get some sleep!
==========================================================

I think I dreamt about being at the Paramount with the polys last
nite. I had sex with a young pretty boy, who probably weighed about
175 soaking wet. After the movie, we both went our separate ways & I
started wondering if he'd get jealous if I hooked up with another guy
I saw leaving the movie.

And then, after the movie-sex, I went up an escalator to a lobby type
area where people were doing live e-bay auctions. Each seller had a
booth with all the ebay information posted above whatever item they
were selling. You could wave your arm over the seller's name and see
their feedback page flash in front of your eyes. And then the highest
bidder also got to play a slot machine to see if they won the item
for free. It was wierd. A was selling a white corset under a
really long, bizarre username, like
LadyGoddessMoonFlowerSongPaperDreamer. Maybe she and i had met up
downstairs & gone up the escalator together? something. Lots of
people were gathered around her booth watching the winner play the
slot machine and cheering him/her on. Wonder what my subconscious was
trying to tell me with that one?
831 Liz/SIL revelation
- Aug. 27, 2002
  
  from an email to dee:
  ================================================================
  I just realized that my SIL and Liz have a whole lot in common--build
  (SIL has at *least* 60 lbs on Liz, but the body type is the same),
  the thing for role-playing games, the helpless-pathetic-rescue-me act
  along with the manipulative puppetmaster aspect...
  
  I guess Liz was not sick/crazy enough for E so he had to find
  someone worse. (Heck, maybe E wasn't sick & crazy enough for Liz
  and she dumped him. I still don't know many of the details of that
  whole episode)
  
  Wow.
  
  Big lightbulb moment for me. And it probably explains why I'm so
  reluctant to write SIL off as readily as I should; leftover guilt
  from ending my relationship with Liz so badly back in HS & my basic
  nature being drawn to something in THAT basic nature. for whatever
  reasons (wanting to help, heal, bring out of the shell, bla bla)
  
  You probably saw it already and are going 'duh', but it puts alot of
  pieces into the puzzle for me.
  ================================================================
  
  So...what does this mean, in terms of life lessons? Am I supposed to
  learn how to help/heal this type of person? Am I supposed to learn
  how to walk away without hurting anyone? Am I supposed to learn how
  to role play without losing my essential self? Or is this E's
  lesson and I've learned it with Liz, so don't need to repeat it?
