Black Hole Theory
Mood:
 spacey
Now Playing: Black Hole Sun-Soundgarden
Topic: Shine Dammit
I have written this three times, and Internet Explorer has blipped it... I have been sick all day, and I need to go back to bed so if this doesn't work...Goodnight. Basically, I have been thinking a lot about the pressures of this life. I think I can put it best by saying that we all have some form of it on us. The way we choose to use it makes us who we are. If you take the pressure, and rise above it, it lifts you up to shine for others to follow. If you put yourself under too much, it can turn you into a black hole. Black holes try to take in as much matter as they can, trying to suck energy out of anything that comes into contact with them. Hence, misery loves company-until the company can't take the pressure anymore, and pulls away. Stars burn up the energy that comes near them. Look at what happened to Icharus when he flew too close to the sun. I am hoping to be my own planet. I would like to have a hospitable atmosphere, a balance of earth, water and sky, a few satellites, some nice neighboring planets, and some visitors for outer space to make life interesting!!! FAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR OUT!!!

Now Playing: EZ Come-EZ Go-REM
Topic: Whatever
Well, kids, maybe it's the placement of my Saturn that makes it difficult for me to amass wealth. It wasn't really mine to amass, but a windfall for Babboo affects me too. I have Saturn, the planet of truth and restriction, (which rules my sun sign Capricorn) in the eighth house, which is the house of birth, death, and regeneration, and is the house of Pisces, which is the sign of secrets, sorrows, and self-undoing!!! It's pretty heavy, and indicates that I have lived the good life many times over, and now I have to apply my lessons, or the wheel will roll right over top of me! Last week we got some news that did not seem real. Like I said-when life looks like easy street-there is danger at your door (quote-Uncle John's Band-Grateful Dead) When everything played out, it just wasn't right. Some said take the money and run, but if we've learned anything, it's that there is "no free lunch". The gift has been re-gifted, and we are none the worse for wear. My Saturn placement "does not favor material wealth", however, I can overcome it by using the lessons I learn from it to teach others. I also have a favorable Jupiter placement that is great for business, and drops funds in my lap right when I need them-often in the most unexpected way. I am not likely to win the lottery in this lifetime, but I will always get by. Anyone want to buy a mandala?

8th Grade Graduation
Mood:
 party time!
Now Playing: Don't Look Back- Boston
Topic: Super Star Dylan
Tonight Dylan graduated from Jefferson Middle School. Middle school had not been so good for him. He is really a pretty sensitive guy, who really flares up when he gets teased. Just like the bullies like it. He is also kind of a little guy, which only adds to the appeal. The good news is that he has spent most of his life learning to outmaneuver his older brother, so he can wrassle with the best of 'em. I told you earlier that I had taken on the project of creating a 10 foot shooting star tail banner for the stage (in my spare time). Thanks to Shane at Albertson's for going the extra mile and getting me a large piece of cardboard right off one of the display cartons in the storeroom. Also a shout out to the Dollar Tree for making projects like this feasable in my economic strata, I pulled it off. It was a sight to be seen, stage right, 12 feet long, covered in gold foil, emblazoned with the word "CONGRATULATIONS" in blue posterboard letters trimmed with silver glitter!!! The grads walked through a lighted star shaped "arch", got their diplomas, and exited under the comet tail's glory. Unfortunately, you will have to take my word for it since Trevor's digi-cam decided not to work for his brother. (Doesn't help that he dropped it at the skate park!)

Expect the Unexpected
Mood:

Now Playing: BE Yourself-Audioslave
Topic: Exploring Uranus
Today the planet Uranus goes retrograde for the next few months. Uranus is the planet of change and originality. It symbolizes the element of surprise in your life. It relates to your inner will and secret power. It is the planet of scientific discovery, and is the first planet to have been discovered using the telescope! It was unknown to the ancient astronomers. Uranus is the guiding force behind visionaries. When Uranus is retrograde, it brings events into our lives which clue us in on what it is we are here to accomplish. It is a time for self discovery, and can really be a test of faith. Just when you think that your belief structure is intact-WATCH URANUS!!!

Sanity is Relative
Mood:
 special
Now Playing: Crazy Train-Ozzy Osbourne
Topic: All in the Family
Market Yesterday. got "my spot" but still no word on whether it is permanent or not. I did okay, but only reached 1/2 of my $ goal. I did have a LOT of people just come and talk about all the "crazy stuff" with me. One person said he had read a book called "The Quantity of Sanity". The theory is that there is only so much sanity in the universe, and some people get more of it than others. I can see where that could be true. It does however raise a lot of questions in my inquiring little mind! (I realize that is hard to believe and all...) What if you got more sanity than you needed? Would that drive you crazy? If you were a cup short, could you borrow it from your neighbor? If you die, does it go into a sanity pool to be doled out to a new person? Or do you get to keep it for your next life? Can you choose what you get before you come here? Or do you just get what's available at the time? If you don't need yours anymore can you give it to whomever you choose? Or do you just LOSE IT?! The good news for all y'all is that I have quite a large family, and I can assure you that there was plenty of sanity left in the pool!!! I just hope that it wasn't contaminated by the swimmers!

Erasing Your Life
Mood:
 caffeinated
Now Playing: What If God Was One of Us-Joan Osbourne
Topic: Looking Back
In an infinite universe, there are infinite possibilities. As a body that represents a point where a strand of time crosses a strand of space, we see things from the perspective of our experience. Human beings play out as many conditions as they possibly can, some choosing the path of "success", some atone for past lives. We interact,and learn and teach each other all the way through. There is no way that one person can come into the world without affecting at least one other person (the mother is changed forever-therefore is the strongest bond). Even if you don't think that what you do matters...I assure you-IT DOES. Just on an etheric level, when you do not allow yourself, since we are a collective, to use your talents, you slow everybody down!!! Everytime you do something positive, it adds to the collective as well. In this society, we have learned to become so "self-reliant", that we often don't know that we can actually get help somewhere. We are a nation of survivors. Our forefathers and mothers came here to have the opportunity to rise above. With that kind of entrepeneurial spirit comes some awesome entrepeneurial responsibility!!! (Not that I know anything about that!) What happens, when you are not up to the task? Depression, anger, frustration, futility. What happens if you are removed from family. what if you remove yourself from friends. Then try to forget that they are there. You stop answering call, strike their names from your personal records. Get rid of the photos. You live alone. You pay bills way ahead of time, you don't have to go out much. You become shrewd and reclusive. I can tell you, that as hard as you try to erase the memories you shared with the people that had been around you-you shared them!!! And they remember. And they care. And no one can ever be TRULY alone...because you are part of all of it!!!

Running With Wolves
Mood:
 lucky
Now Playing: London Callling-the Clash
Topic: Sheep's Clothing
This morning, my son Dylan was the Bailiff in a play about "The Trial of B.B.(Big Bad)Wolf. It was of course about the prosecution of B.B. for the property destruction, and the murder of the two little pigs. I hope this doesn't ruin it for you, but the Wolf get's freed when it comes to light that it is an insurance scam, and that the two little pigs are still ALIVE!!! This afternooon, Babboo and I were sitting out in the Garden of Fountain, with our "little wolfie" Tyrone, and his best friend Ruby (horse puppy). We were taking care of some legal things which need to be laid to rest. This evening, I went to a "graduation" for women in transitions, which is a program for women who are overcoming their obstacles, and changing their lives. One of my friends did it, and I am very proud of her. I watched her daughter, who is (coincidently?) named RUBY!!! and She got up and read a passage from the book Women Who Run With Wolves!!! (I didn't know before she got up there that she had chosen that work!) Then we got back to her house, AND HER LAWYER CALLED!! (again, just some minor legal paperwork to finish up.) Do you see several patterns developing here??? SO, this is where I look to my sources, and find out what these repeated symbols mean. Let's flash back to "Los Puercos de la Fuentes". Again we are seeing Pigs, and Fountains. We see Legalities, (JUSTICE), Rubies, and Wolves!!! Pigs: selfish, untrained. Wolves: Pack animals, family, community. Cunning, prey on the weak. Keeps herds strong. Justice:(tarot) Whatever is going on will be dealt with in a fair manner. Watch your assets. Libra. Ruby: Healing Jewel for the Blood. Visualizing the ruby in the heart, moves one into selflessness. July/LEO. Fountain: Cleansing. Balancing. Chakras. I think I could probably write a chapter on the interpretation of this day, and what has recently led up to this sort of "COINCIDENCE" EXTRAVAGANZA!!! However, to be fair to my faithful readership, pretend that instead of Being John Malkovich, you are being ME! Here you gooooooooo......... This tells me that we are moving from a place of selfishness (PIGS), to a place of community (WOLVES). That in order to make tis transition successfully, we need to prepare, and strengthen ourselves legally, and financially. That we need to take care of our hearts, both physically and emotionally, and cleanse our blood. (RUBY) This also says to me that by July we can expect to see results of the wheels that have been set in motion in this cycle. (Babboo is a Leo, and this pertains especially to him.) If all goes well, we will be harvesting from the Garden of Fountain by the end of September!!! You Heard it Here FIRST!!!

Late Nite at Planet Nacho
Mood:

Now Playing: Masterpiece-Bob Dylan
Topic: Dish Bitch
For the people out there wondering why it gets harder and harder to get good service at their local restaurant: In the world of cost cutting, the bottom line depends on making sure that you can't squeeze another ounce of sweat out of the help. If the night is slower than expected, you are supposed to start letting servers go home early. In the summer, when it is light late, you often get a rush later. Usually about the time the server you let go early is pulling out of the parking lot! The big cost cutting idea for this week is to try to run without a second bartender. So, knowing that I can kick some pretty serious ass behind the bar if neccessary, I went with ONE. Naturally, it got busy,because it was really sunny for the first day in weeks, and I got the joy of about three hours of solid dishwashing, making drinks, and kissing customer booty. "YES, I am aware that the salsa bar is empty, Salsa and chips are a priveledge NOT A RIGHT...GET OVER IT!" (I'm not bitter?)

Stranger Than Fiction
Mood:
 incredulous
Now Playing: Uncle John's Band
Topic: Grateful Dead
The story of how the Greatful Dead changed their name from the Warlock has to do with the dictionary, and a set of folk tales. Apparently they were all kicking around and they opened the dictionary to "Greatful Dead". The stories have to do with a man who comes along a corpse that has been ignored, or mistreated. He takes over, and gives the man a decent burial. Soon he comes upon a man who befriends him, helps him acquire a fortune, and become very successful. When the identity of this friend is revealed, it is the ghost of the man whose remains he had taken care of. Eventually, as the story unfolds, I will be able to share with you how this is happening right now in the strange and wonderful lives of me and my sweet baboo! Right now the details are still so in motion that it is not really possible to pick the right vantage point to tell it from, and what the outcome will be. Just know that it is the latest chapter in a long strange book!
