my horoscopes for today, Wednesday, August 3.
One is daily, one is that rat bastard Rob:
Daily:
A new and exciting person could enter your life today, Tiamatlady, and you could find that you're both powerfully attracted to each other.
Um, yeah. Right. *rolls off to giggle uncontrollably in the corner*
You might spend enough time with this person to know that the two of you have a lot in common and that you enjoy each other's company. Whether or not you choose to pursue the attraction depends, of course, on your situation, but at any rate, you'll have some fun today.
I'll be the one over here, snickering. I'll be the first and last one shocked at this one if it comes to pass.
Rob:
In describing his creative process, novelist Jack Kerouac said, "The first thought is the best thought." When Allen Ginsberg was asked "What's the best advice you can give a poet?", he echoed Kerouac.
Hmmmmm, kay? Rob, drugs are bad, hmmmmkay?
On the other hand, Nobel Prize-winning writer William Butler Yeats constantly revised works he had already published, even fiddling with poems that were many years old. Pierre Bonnard was so committed to editing himself that "he was once caught trying to retouch one of his own paintings hanging on a museum wall," wrote poet Linh Dinh, who concluded, "Last thought is the best thought."
see point number one Rob.
While there are valid arguments for both views,
What?
Leo, the astrological omens say your best bet for now is to go the way of Kerouac and Ginsberg.
*rolls eyes* Go with my gut then? Well DUH! *wonders why I subscribe to these things.
Seriously, one is so far fetched it'll NEVER happen, the other is so obvious, it may as well be a fish smacked in my face. NO I DON'T KNOW what that means.
I should go to bed.
