too easy

Yes, it's official. I'm a huge skank.

When we look at another and see lovable traits, they are admired, especially if we possess those traits ourselves. And likewise the not-so-lovable traits in another that we can identify with, we dislike.

You may find that another persons quirks will be the pitfall in a relationship with them. Character flaws are a part of someone’s fate and they need to be acknowledged, accepted and integrated into the overall personality.


TAURUS QUIRKS-Power, sensuality and wealth motivates the bull. They will not budge unless it’s worth it. Payoffs, chocolate cake, bonus schemes and tax incentives can get them going. If there’s no reward what’s the point in moving, this is a major quirk. They may as well relax… and relax they do. There logic can be, why change when you can stay the same. Never rush a Taurus they have their own timing. Reports from partners of Taureans complain about their lack of initiative, their addiction to the T.V. or their unwillingness to do anything. Once you’re in a relationship with a Taurus, you may find they don’t want to budge.

balance?

I can't seem to find the balance between work and leisure time lately. I'm doing both kinda of half assed. A lack of studying doesn't pair so well with a full reader, messy bedroom and unmanicured body hair.

"When we are in nature we experience the world through all of our senses in a dynamic way, but at the same time we are framing what we see through the cultural expectations we have absorbed through representational systems such as landscape painting, wildlife documentary, and travel guides. It is impossible, then, to have a true, non-mediated experience of nature even though we may long for it." -Gregory Euclide

I'm going outside, albeit I'll make a quick stop to sbux before braving the outdoor world.

I was just duped big time.
My boyfriend just fed me a total crock of shit and I ate it gleefully. I never thought I was that gullible. We briefly paused on a Willie Nelson concert from PBS this evening. After admiring Willie's beautifully beaten up guitar, the bf doesn't skip a beat and begins telling me a story of how he met Mr. Nelson, and carved his initials into Willie's guitar. This was immediately followed by a "What? Really? I can't believe he'd let you sign it" (as I'm shocked yet excited to collect a cool random factoid to share with someone). He leads me on a bit, then waits until the camera focuses into a shot of said initials. Boom, the spotting of the B.C. engraving was met with high pitch squeals and even an ohmygod.


Turns out it was all a sham, I'm a big gullible baby and I need to not listen to a word my mister says.

What's my greatest skill?
Finding really cool and really distracting websites when I'm supposed to be studying. The uninteresting, banal and pedestrian seeks me out when I have all the time in the world. Only when I tell myself, "15 minutes of browse time" do I discover the internet honey hole.
Bah.
I'm signing off.
