Today’s Birthday: Gemini
A planetary configuration like today’s often makes people afraid to start anything that challenges their status quo. That’s because the planets are so misaligned, it looks like rush hour on the 405 up there. See, the idea is to stop traffic . . not sit in it. In spite of this cosmic sausage, you should aspire for greater heights in your professional life. Be a risk taker, even if it means telling your boss that his head is so far up his ass that it’s pushing on his belly button. And after he presents you with a pink slip, take your severance and hit Vegas. Because you already lost the girl, the house and the dog . . so why the fuck not? As Matthew Broderick once opined, there is a kind of freedom in being totally screwed. And so what if you’re not going to follow up that line of thinking with a successful career in acting whilst calling Sarah Jessica Parker your pillow pal?
Remember the saying there is nothing to fear but fear itself. Just kidding! You should be afraid . . very afraid.
Yup…I think you nailed it on the ‘Twins!’
P.S. How ’bout dem Blues? 🏒

Buahahaha!
The Blues are tenacious. They seriously do not have the best team on paper, but since they play the game on ice . . we good! Here’s hoping they can put the pressure on with a Game 5 win.

Game 5 was quite entertaining. Go Blues! Returning to home ice is a problem.

It has been this postseason. I hope they can bring St Louis a title. It’s a great sports town.

FYI: I checked the playoff record (this year): Blues are 9-3 on the road, but 6-3 at home.

FDR would appreciate that remark.
I think your Horror…scope is a dandy one. Those Gemini Twins could wipe a girl out. And those fun lovin’ the Brodericks claim to be so, so happy. Hmm. Stay Tuned.

The Brodericks had a good run, I’ll give them that. I can’t imagine it’s easy to stay together in that world.

B,
All’s I can say is I’m sure glad I’m not a Gemini! Although the image of shoving MY boss’ head straight up her ass appeals to me tremendously, right now. Plus, I’m tired. I need a vacation 😉

Q,
I am an equal opportunity offender, so wait until I get to Libra. There’s gonna be some real work going on then.
Settle down Josie. She’s just a Boss doing Boss things in her Boss world. As Bosses are wont to do. But it would be nice if she did exhibit even a tiny sampling of human being right about now.
You really do. From this job! 😉

Of that, I’ve no doubt! No rush to get there, though. I’d like to have a summer first (assuming it ever shows). Got a long time to wait for the Aries one 😉

Fret not, since there are thoughts ‘o the day aplenty to fill those gaps with. And maybe, well a big maybe, another haiku. Or unpoetic poetry.

I took your advice many years ago. I sat on a kitchen counter and gave my boss the finger. We were at a private party and he decided to give a few orders after midnight. Well, my other Twin would not listen. Up went the finger and there you have it. Lucky for me the guy got transferred or I would have been on the role. I resemble the horoscope today, pilgrim.

The problem with a split personality is you never know which will be in charge in a given situation, the one ready to tell the boss to stick it, or the one who wants a steady paycheck.

I’ve got questions …
Question #1 … how the hell do you know about traffic on the 405? A freeway the locals refer to as 40-f%$#^.
Question #2 … why the hell did you throw Sarah Jessica Parker into this? I was good until then. But, no, you had to make me all jealous of Matthew Broderick and his pillow pal. Sheesh.

I’ve known peeps from the West Coast who speak of this thing as if it’s one of the 9 circles of hell.
Settle down, big fella. I hear there are problems in Marriage Land. So who knows . . .

Having been stuck on the 405 once or twice in recent years while my son was in college down that way, I can attest to the fact that it is the circle of hell — all nine of them. At once.

My dream is named Vera. But I prefer to keep my dream afar, because she is a crazy, dyed in the wool Catholic girl and well . . I’ve been down that road (an emotional 405) too many times as it is.

I am a Gemini, and the 405 is the bane of my existence. So apparently I have to have a talk with my boss. Because The Horoscope said it, so it must be true!

Even though I’m not a Gemini I appreciate Ferris’s words. Although being in lose-lose situations many times it’s turned out even worse in the end. But the 405 … yup that’s always bad. This final draft was pretty funny … can’t wait for your column 🙂
