Not me but close enough

Nice link, nice interview.

Also, I tried working freelance for a few years, and it was a largely negative experience. Not me but close enough

Just what is this?

I swiped the idea from [url=http://www.fredlet.com]fredlet’s journal, back in the fall of 1998. Like I’ve said in publication before, it was an answer and an outlet for a number of my needs. It was around Pluto’s last pass at my natal Sun, and I had a desire for a different outlet. I actually used the Just what is this?

Liquid crack

This [url=http://www.foodtv.com/recipes/re-c1/0,,8607,00.html]title brought a smile to my face. Hack: “Favorites” icon. Elapsed time? 5 minutes. Results? In three places. Plus I did Bubba’s [url=www.astrowhore.org]”whore,” too. That one took a lot longer. This [i]backward compatibility[/i] work is killing me. I slipped out of the other office a little early. Wandering home, I stopped for a quick Liquid crack

Lurching towards Monday

I whacked, weeded, tweaked and generally did backend tech stuff at odd hours of the weekend evenings. The weather was nice enough to warrant a long hike. Unfortunately, that hike included picking up a credit card statement – the sales numbers for November. It’s a plaintive wail, “Regrets, I’ve had a few….” (Oh yeah, name Lurching towards Monday

Saturn in his prime

Saturn in his prime I’m getting over the fact that the world is a [url=http://ars.userfriendly.org/cartoons/?id=20021214]pretty dismal place. My Gemini sister has called, on an average of three times a day for the last three days, at work, on the cell phone, leaving me a voice mail, beeping me, “Where [i]ARE[/i] you?” There’s an advantage to Saturn in his prime

One of those weeks

Which should have a subtitle of “I’m pissed off at humanity.” On my way around the trail, I plucked an oak leaf from a tree. In the sunlight, that leaf–still attached to the tree–looked like it was brilliant red, a dark, ruby color. It was the perfect shape and form, and I was sure it One of those weeks

In a Republican stronghold

“Stay home, I’m coming by to get you.” It was that sweet Pisces, and she was on her way to fetch me up to paper the capital. The Capitol. Whatever. See, I’ve dealt with Pa Wetzel all my life. Typical Libra. So is the other boss, my buddy. And sometimes, he has these great ideas, In a Republican stronghold

Done

I’ve heard it before, and I’m sure I’ll hear it again. Mostly from Bubba as he’s very well aware of the way I work. It was in 1995, that was eight years ago, that I first turned in a whole year’s worth of horoscopes on a floppy disk. Handed them to the editor at the Done

Leander, TX.

Leander, TX. We’ve got a vendor that we’ve been working with, and due to the nature of my job, I can’t be bothered to ask him what his sign is. So far, he’s offered me beer and soda, and his “associate” spends an inordinate amount of time on the cell phone while bidding on the Leander, TX.
