TAURUS (April 20-May 20): I don’t recommend that you aim for perfection–not now or ever. I’m equally skeptical of you seeking enlightenment, as it’s defined by Eastern religions. Perfection and enlightenment are downright impossible in a world where change is the only constant. What constitutes perfection or enlightenment today won’t be valid tomorrow, when the truth has evolved and God has showered us with an influx of previously unimaginable new circumstances. No, Taurus, what I suggest is that you cultivate love with all your ingenuity–both the capacity to give it and receive it. There’s no other undertaking that does more to build up your power and intelligence. And this week is an ideal time to be living proof of that fact.

Katrina Benefit Concert in Lansing
From
Lansing Community College’s radio station has decided to help their counterpart in New Orleans, by hosting a benefit concert.
Dart Auditorium
Monday, 9/19
7PM-9PM
Donations accepted at the door.
Dad and I will be performing (quite possibly opening), as well as my grandpa. If you have any questions, leave me a comment, and I’ll do my best to answer them, or get answers for you.
Don’t know much yet about the other station, other than they’ve got a lot of the same equipment that LCC does, and it’s all under water (or has been at some point), and it’s worth more money than is easily gotten.
If any of you have heard my wife’s beautiful voice, you will be making plans to get there by any means possible. If you haven’t, you should. ;)
Mission Successful
I forgot to mention yesterday that my mission to give blood was a success. The whole thing took an hour, but I was only on the table for ten minutes. I can give blood again on 02 Nov 2005. In fact, let’s schedule this now.
You are now scheduled to Donate Whole Blood.

Huh, that day is the New Moon. Looks like I’ll be able to make an hour exception to my day of silence.
I feel good about this.
Horoscope
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): From the window of my office I look down on a blackberry bush whose berries are now ripening. In the last 20 minutes, I’ve watched a sparrow figure out the best way to feast. At first the bird tried to land on the flimsy branches of the bush, but after a few tries it realized they couldn’t hold its weight. Its revised strategy was to grab a single berry in mid-swoop and alight on the branch of a nearby apple tree so it could relax with its meal. It did this ten times. I recommend a similar approach to you, Taurus. According to my astrological analysis, you won’t be able to enjoy your treats in the place where you find them. You’ll have to pluck them, fly away, and savor them at a distance. Like the sparrow, you should keep returning for refills.
Stuff rules. Also, things tend to rule.
Lots of work to do. Catching up is only a small part of it.
The Bean-O-Rama ruled.
Getting
Ideas and ideas and ideas definitely rule.
Also, pfrank rules.
Donating blood
Well, the last effort was a bust. The blood drive that was listed for yesterday was a phantom. The donor center was closed, and none of the printed blood drive schedules had Labor Day on them.
So, I’ve signed up again:

New Moon
Well, I’ve got a bit of time while Software Update Services server sychronizes for the first time….
New moon today, so I’m silent today. I’ve accidentally said things twice, but to no one in particular. Nobody was home, and the dog wasn’t even here. How odd.
As soon as the synchronization is complete, I’m going to head out to the coffee shop to do some studying and such. I’ve got an awesome idea, modified by Zach (though not in the way he suggested), for a scene in the sequel to The Remembrance. I think I’m going to write it out.
I’ve been grazing a bit here at home, but I’m hungry again. I don’t really want to go to Denny’s, despite the ability to eat AND study there. For once, I’m not even in the mood for Thai. I want my Theio’s back.
Also, Adam’s Name may have morphed once again. The project may have become huge, entirely managable, and infinitely more fun. Heh.
I miss
