Day: Friday 16 July 2004

    Monday I paid bills, mowed and weeded the lawn, and met up with Mer and Charles.  Charles hasn't changed much in ten years, and it was good to see him again.  We went to a place called Ono Hawai'ian Barbeque Grill, a Hawai'ian fast food place.  Afterward, we were unsuccessful in talking Mer out of going to the old hs campus.  We tried explaining that it would most likely be closed.  But she took us there, and then ignored my pleas to check into the office for permission to be on campus.  When asked, "what's the worst that could happen?" I replied to her, "We get arrested for tresspassing."  Eventually, we were warned off campus by a custodian using the summer break to wax the floors.  Then we went to her place, where she returned my Star Wars Holiday Special tape that she's been borrowing since the holidays.  We also picked up some photographs to be scanned at my place.  Then it was off to the Harkins Camelview to see Super Size Me, an awesome movie.  Finally, we went to my place, scanned pictures for Charles and Mer, and parted ways.  All in all, it was good to see them both again.  Next time we might drag Claudia out with us.  Soon we might have the whole old gang!

     

    Tuesday night I watched the final episode of Shada, a rewarding experience to be sure.  Afterward I worked some on editting our TFLAS page on the Hexacon XIV page

     

    Last night we had another Diagon Alley Live meeting at the fifteen day mark.  We still have a lot of work to go, so if I don't post here much its likely because of that.  In fact, I should be doing some of that now.  Aloha!

     

    I stumbled across a few unusual ambiguous predictions for my morrow, using terms I had previously never seen such as "sextile" and "trine".  They were so interesting, that I am sharing them here in context instead of my usual quizes:

    «July 16: Venus Sextile Mars
    Get your calendar ready -- your social life is about to take off!  You'll meet all social situations with ease, but you'll be especially adept at connecting with the opposite sex. You'll naturally know how to approach people without being too aggressive.  This balance will make you more attractive in a general sense, but the benefits will be especially obvious in the bedroom.  Not with someone?  Pay some extra attention to your crush -- and don't be surprised when you end up with a date!

    July 16: Venus Trine Neptune
    Love is in the air this week! When Venus trines Neptune, we tend to see the world through rose-colored glasses. What feels like true love may turn out to be just a fun little tryst, but either way, you'll enjoy the experience. You may also find yourself in a dreamy state, not wanting to cope with the real world. Focus your energy on creative projects if you can.

    July 16: Mars Opposes Neptune
    Feeling a bit odd today? When the planet of passion opposes the planet of illusion, ambiguity reigns. Remember that things aren't always as they seem; it's better to wait until you have all the facts instead of relying on blind faith alone. Since you may be more gullible than usual, keep your eyes open and your wallet closed until you are feeling more clear-headed.»
