Horoscope

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): It’s about time you got the chance to be knocked on your ass by a flood of positive surprises and good feelings. I hope you’re trusting enough to go with the tidal flow, even if it does temporarily render you a bit woozy. Naturally you’d like to know if this giddy surrender will land you in trouble. Is there any chance that you’ll have to endure some karmic adjustment at a later date because of the fun you’re having now? Here’s my prediction: absolutely not. If anything, your enthusiastic cooperation with the free-form dazzle will shield you from any negative repercussions.

I could use some of this. Just gotta relax and let it happen, right? Ha!

I’m putting words on paper, but it’s so…. slow. I keep needing breaks and changes of scenery and oh, that car is shiny, and I called Mom for Mother’s Day (but got voice mail) and and and and.

I’m putting words on paper, but it’s more like my outline is shoving my characters into this structure that doesn’t really have an end, and is only just getting to a sort of middle thing. It feels like I’ve forgotten who they are, or they’ve forgotten how to talk to me, or or or or.

I’m putting words into the intertubes, but my lap is getting warm. When it’s charging, my laptop runs pretty freakin’ hot. My SETI@home Graveyard project may yet come to fruition. I’m surprisingly excited about that. As it is, I’m helping a friend test resource allocation limits on the virtualization software he’s running on his colo box by running the BOINC software. Ones and zeros!

I’ve got to relax and listen, so that I can put more words on paper. I’ve -got- to. And that’s part of the reason that I can’t relax. Kernel Panic – oops!

Horoscope

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): To get misguided tips about how to invest, check out Henry Blodget’s “The Complete Bad Advice Column” (tinyurl.com/ys4al8). For crabby, mean-spirited counsel about how to conduct your personal life, listen to Dr. Laura’s syndicated radio show (drlaura.com). For silly chatter about trivial subjects, read the “most intelligent woman in the world,” Marilyn vos Savant (marilynvossavant.com). But if, on the other hand, you’d like brilliant guidance about where to direct your substantial life energy next, tap into your own intuition. The astrological omens suggest that it’s working better now than it ever has. It’s far more useful to you than any so-called expert’s blatherings.

I had to take yesterday off of work, due to stomach illness and fever. In the middle of about 20 hours of sleep on and off, the fever broke. The stomach issues seem to be slowly subsiding. I’m back at work today, so that’s good. (Think good thoughts at so she doesn’t catch it.)

People are bugging me to write more in the Glass Crown. I really need to listen to them.

So much goodness in one post. Does this violate some kind of law somewhere?

The headache has gone away, but my stomach is still kind of upset. Either I just didn’t drink enough water yesterday, or I was coming down with something beforehand.

I have good news in spades, today. Let’s go in reverse chronological order:

  • I’m writing for a webcomic! Clicky clicky on the http://ww.mousewax.com for a daily dose. I’ve been a daily reader of this strip for a while, thanks to , so I’d put my quality-assurance stamp on it. Not that I’m biased or anything for the next ten strips.
  • Did someone say surprise birthday party? did. I was shocked out of my mind, and when they started calling for a speech, all I could say was “Crap!”. To which, of course, my friends cheered. :) So much fun last night.
  • Birthday Brunch at Clara’s. Kudos go to for the idea for the gifts. Most of everybody eBayed the Marvel figures that each have a piece of Apocalypse packaged with them. Together, I ended up with them all, and was able to put the toy together. So. Awesome. Also, I got a pair of new TONGS from , which can be locked and unlocked using one hand. Yay for Pampered Chef!

This year’s birthday “days” has been chock full of awesome. Thank you to everybody who’s made it possible. :)

Solar power is feasible in Spain.

This article makes me think… there are a whole lot of Native Americans that our government pissed off by moving them to desert reservations. If they built a whole lot of these things, they’d have the country by the balls as far as power production. And it would be CLEAN. It’s not a rolling-up of this world and a restoring of the last, but what’re you gonna do?
