Something I just have to get off my chest.

I Knew I Shouldn’t Have Looked!



Today’s horoscope seems to be hinting at some sort of dramatic flame-out.


Quickie:
If you're tiptoeing through a personal minefield, call in the troops. Get backup.

Yeah, ‘cause everybody LOVES to wade through personal and potentially explosive bullshit. But let’s not get off the topic at hand.

Overview:
Good luck to anyone who decides to test you, because they'll certainly need it -- that, and a fire extinguisher. You won't hesitate to show them the error of their ways, and the way to the door.



So naturally, I expected to read more about the fiery stuff in my extended forecast. And that’s when I began to feel the heat:


Your day's assignment is to mingle. Getting glued to your computer or the TV or a book will leave you feeling empty by the end of the day. Take breaks, call friends, make plans, visit and welcome others into your life. A nose-to-the-grindstone mentality will not sustain your spirit. Celebrate life and life will surprise you. Friends are waiting in the wings for just a word from you. Outsmart your mind for a change and abandon yourself to capriciousness. There is often more wisdom in doing something silly than there is in breaking your back to meet a deadline.


This can be summarized as “All work and no play makes LeBaroness a dull chick.” What the hell does any of this have to do with a personal minefield, or setting fire to those who decide to test me?

Perhaps today’s extended forecast was a fluke. In that vein, I decided to broaden my horizons and read my career forecast:

A quick fix you devise under pressure will earn you points with a supervisor. More importantly, you've saved yourself a lot of work by thinking on your feet.

Ah, a pressure cooker! Those explode sometimes, or at least the old-school variety used to. Now we’re making sense again.

But alas, the Love & Relationships forecast:

Daily Flirt:
Check in with the family today -- or at least with the friends who feel like your family. You don't necessarily need any hand-holding right now, but some support from the people you care about could go a long way.

Daily Couples:
You're in the mood for company, but they may want a quiet night. Try to organize a night of games or movies at your place, and hold hands with your sweetie.

Daily Singles:
Could a friend with some love difficulties use a little cheering up, good advice or just your excellent company? Put your tact and sweet-heartedness on the case.


This would suggest that I’m in a cuddly sort of mood and it calls me tactful and sweet-hearted. LIES!
