Divisions and Precisions

Written in the Stars

One week left of tax season. I slept most of the weekend. I have wonderful, wonderful friends, both online and off. I got to talk to an old online friend from years ago, who not only remembered me, but has been missing me all this time. My desk here at work is finally clean. My hair is wavy and shiny and almost orderly today. I have Wheat Thins. I have been told, over the past several days, and from varying sources, that I am cute, that I have a sultry voice (that one always makes me grin), that I am brilliant, that I am talented. Perhaps most delightful of all... one of the above sources was me.

I am having a very good day. I am giddy with the goodness of the universe as it stands right now at this moment. I feel like I'm in love... but I know I'm not. I just have that same lightness of being, of belonging somewhere, of being comfortable in my skin. Maybe today I've fallen in love with me. (Ooh, that's so cheesy!) But cheese is a good thing! Today, at least. Today, there is little that does not count as a good thing.

Of course, the small cynical part of my mind is murmuring, 'Wow, as happy as you are, you're probably going to, like, die any minute now...' So, you read it here. If I keel over, you can all stand in amazement at my phenomenal psychic powers.

Ironically, I decided to check my horoscope today, which is not something I usually do. Here's my cosmic outlook for the day, courtesy of Astronet:

CANCER (June 22nd-July 22nd): The emotional Moon, your very own lovely silver orb, has moved into your house of personality, Cancer. With your ruler in this place, you might be feeling as if you were "wearing your heart on your sleeve." And, as if that weren't enough already, this tenderhearted Moon will connect with Jupiter, the planet that makes every emotion bigger than life. But that's not all; she'll also connect with Mars, who'll turn up the thermostat on all those enlarged feelings. In other words, regardless what you're feeling today, expect it to erupt in a big way. Don't worry; your display will have an appreciative audience.

So in other words, I'm sure it's perfectly in keeping with all this that I'm feeling the urge to burst into song, to grin madly, to howl at the moon -- even if it is broad daylight.

It's going to be a long two and a half hours before I get to go home. Posted by Lisa at April 10, 2000 05:51 PM
