Dear RAYMOND,
Mysterious influences are at work, RAYMOND, and it may pay you to take special note of your dreams as they could contain some very important messages. Whatever feelings come to you concerning any new situations you are moving into, trust them and trust your own judgment. The females in your life may also be able to provide insights and perspectives relating to a problem over which you have spent much time in deep thought.

I can't believe my horoscope used the phrase "the females in your life". I absolutely fcking love it.

I'm supposed to write more here. I want to write more. But I arrived at work late, and I didn't get everything done yesterday, and I have this thing about getting a lot done on Friday mornings and early afternoon so I can be braindead on Friday afternoon but also I can not start off Monday morning being so far behind in the game. So Friday mornings are when my guilt about work suddenly gets joined with motivation, and things happen.

But I'd rather be writing here, especially since so many words and feelings are pouring out of my head and heart right now. Maybe it's good to hold on to them a bit more, keep them only for myself. I'm rarely selfish this way.

Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing?

In case you actually cared, here are the answers to yesterday's poll. I learned an important lesson. I'm a big esoteric nerd who should stop making polls. But I'll continue to put song lyrics in my subject lines that make absolute sense to me even if they aren't as transparent to others.

ANSWERS TO THE POLL:

And I could make you rue the day, but I could never make you stay.

White Stripes

The winner is

limenal. Congratulations! Which is a combined testament to how well she remembers lyrics as well as her being subjected to many of these songs while we lived together. Of course, she only got three right, and most people got two right, which out of fifteen, are pretty horrible ratios, so I think that means the evaluation was too difficult. Oh well. I got them all right.
