For the record

I just want to keep a copy of the November 6 horoscopes for obvious purposes. =p

I like Phil Booth. As much as I know that newspaper type horoscopes are often generic, this guy often “cuts to the bone” as someone once told me. I take absolutely no credit for what was written by Phil.

So, here it is:

Thursday Nov. 6

Thought for the Day

Scorpio likes nothing more than to reveal what is hidden. Mars, by being its traditional ruler, is now forcing the release of information that has been long buried. Our recent close encounter with Mars has accelerated the whole process, so we are now seeing secrets coming to light.

If today is your birthday

You stand to make great gains because of Jupiter’s presence in Virgo right through the end of next September. If you haven’t taken up some studies or started your own research, you will soon. It’s like dreaming that you’ve discovered a new secret room. Your world is growing. Happy birthday to Maria Shriver, 48.

Scorpio (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22)

Stage plays can run for years. The actors play the same part day in and day out. At some point thespians have to literally quit the part, because the character they play has taken them over. Well, yo are free to do the same. Wouldn’t it be delightful to escape the character you are playing?

Another entry to come soon.

Rats, tumours, and all that jazz

No, I’m not planning on seeing the third installment of the Matrix. I went to see the second one only because a friend wanted to see it. I never was interested in the first one…and no matter how many times TBS is going to play it (which is an endless amount of times, no doubt), I have no plans on watching it just for the sake of it being “The Matrix”. For the second one, as I said, I went only because a friend wanted to. Frankly, I was bored of it. No matter how much eye candy (and no, I’m not talking about the religious orgy–if you consider that sort of thing “eye candy”) there was, all it did was make me go “meh”. I much prefered X-MEN 2 which was out around the same time. Anyway, that’s not the point. I refuse to watch the third movie. That’s all. On my list of movies I *do* want to see however, are: Kill Bill Vol. 1, LOTR 3.

Ah, so why the hell am I bothering to subtitle this month “Revolutions”? Well, without going into many details yet, there’s a LARGE amount of potential good things coming this month. None of it has yet materialized, but…it looks like everything is in place. After months of being at a constant low, why the hell shouldn’t good things happen to me? Am I undeserving? Hell no. If anything, I’m the only one who can decide that for myself. And guess what. I’m fucking worth it.

Phew…I got that out. Now if only I can maintain that level of confiance-en-soi (err…I think that’s the right phrase).

Heh, so what of the title for this entry in particular? In a conversation with another employee, she mentioned that she was interested in getting a dog. She wanted a dog to prevent her daughter from getting a cat. She was then going through some of the previous pets they had. She mentioned that they had a rat of some sort as a pet. She wasn’t all too pleased with it at the time. She then proceeded to say: “but then luckily the rat had a tumour and died quickly after that”. When I heard that I couldn’t stop laughing for a good five minutes. That had to be one of the most ridiculously funny things I had heard in quite a while.

So now what? How does that story relate to anything? Heh, I didn’t know how to link it either, but it’s just come to me. Sometimes there are problems that just occur through no fault of your own. They can be nuisances which have no solution. Because of it, you may end up miserable or in pain. But cheer up. Stuff happens. Good things can happen that improve your situation. And when it does improve, take advantage of it.

When your rats get tumours, go ahead and buy your dog.

- The END -

Hoo. That’s enough silliness. Back to work.
