TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “When you die,” says the Koran, “God will call upon you to account for all the permitted pleasures you did not enjoy while on earth.” There’s a similar idea in the Talmud: “A person will be called upon to account, on Judgment Day, for all the permitted pleasures he might have enjoyed but did not.” This thought should serve as a central theme for you in the coming weeks, Taurus. Don’t worry, you won’t die for many years. But to activate your highest spiritual potentials in the near future, you must plumb the depths of bliss, joy, amusement, and fun.

Lo and behold, the next installment of Adam’s Name is up on my short fiction page. From the site:
“Adam loses himself in blue eyes and lace-covered skin as he flees the strangeness that continues to pierce holes in his reality. He runs to the Goth/Industrial club a few floors above the last bar, and ends up on the roof of a parking garage. Alcohol, making out, a gun shot, and a bonfire under the constellation Orion.”
I’ve also started a thread in the Google group to discuss the strangeness that Adam keeps running into. Feel free to share theories, observations, complaints, offers of gold doubloons, whatever. :)
Also, though I haven’t been a part of it, the activity in the
I haven’t forgotten your suggestions about what to write, from that post oh-so-long-ago. Nor the meme where I owe four more people pieces of fiction. I’ll get on track one of these days. :)
Giving something a shot.
If you’ve got Netflix, and want to be able to recommend movies to me, or anime, or whatever, you can friend me there. Friending me will allow me to friend you back, I think.
Anyway, they give you a link to hand out to people that you want to friend you. Here’s mine:

Give it a whirl. :) I’m always up for movie recommendations.

I realize that this is super-short notice. If anyone has a couple of hours free between 1 and 3 PM today, and doesn’t mind hauling some furniture,

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Hunters recently killed a 50-ton whale off the coast of Alaska. While cutting it apart back on shore, they found a metal projectile lodged in its blubber from an older attack. Later research revealed it had been manufactured around 1890. That means the whale was at least 115 years old, and had been carrying around the projectile for over a century. I bring this to your attention, Taurus, in the hope that it will inspire you to meditate on your own ancient wound. When you pass on to the next world many years from now, I’d hate for you to still be infected with the hurt that befell you in your youth. It’s an ideal time to take aggressive corrective action. Heal it!

Yesterday was securing the apartment, moving some stuff in, hanging out with
I have Halls, and will be picking up NyQuil. I left my shampoo, body wash, and conditioner in the TWP. Fortunately, I had an extra bottle of body wash, and will just have to pick up some shampoo and conditioner. Hey
I’m taking it easy today, and I think I’ll only grab a few things from the storage unit, like the kitchen stuff. I’ll need to go shopping for a new microwave soon, and I have one in mind. I’m already looking forward to hanging art on the walls, getting a corner desk, and putting all of my books up on the shelves. Of course, I need to get the shelves, old desk, table, dresser, and such from the house on Fairview over there. For those of you that have offered help, I may just be taking you up on it. *eyebrow waggle*
But today, I need to take it easy and not get ahead of myself. I should pick up some orange juice, as well. Hrm, maybe a list is in order.
My jaw muscles hurt.
I got my start date for the new job – the 19th. I’ve let them know that I’m available to start earlier, if it’s convenient, so we’ll see.
Still waiting on the background/credit check for the apartment. Shouldn’t be as nervous as I am, but well… I am.
Slept very poorly last night. I’m starting to cough, and I think I caught it from hanging out with
Update: I got the apartment! I pick up the keys tomorrow morning.
