That's your horoscope for today

This was the wisdom from the stars today:

Horoscope for: Monday, April 10, 2006

Cyrano,
Someone could tell you something that's very serious to them, but you find it hysterically funny. Obviously, you'd do well not to laugh. Understand that what's nothing to you can be a big issue for another person. While you may think the whole thing is silly, taking it too lightly might work against a relationship.


How profound, wizard!
And yet, so far nobody has come to me with a hilarious problem. Where is my Funny, people? You are running out of today!

I am oppressed.

Shannon, the boy, and I went for pizza a few days ago. There was pleasant chat, and beer, and (you might guess) pizza. There were, in fact, two beers, which is around twice what I need to say "Thanksh, thash enough".

We were, at some moment, discussing Talent. I've no idea why. I felt moved to explain what Real talent was. "Do you know," I said, leaning confidentially toward them, "what I can do with just my fingertips and my lips?" I ran a demonstrative set of fingertips down the nape of Shannon's neck, and the boy looked very uncomfortable.

Then I sat up quickly and brought my fingers to my mouth. "b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b". Terrific. Big larfs.

The waitress came 'round just then, and, as it seemed to have gone over well with the family, I smiled proudly as any five-year-old with a fingerpainting and asked, "Do you know wh--"

Shannon smiled about as tightly as she was holding her hand over my mouth. "We'll just have the check, please."

I never get to have any fun around here.

Well. You poor dear. Obviously you need to find somebody who will teach you some kind of social mores, and some guidelines of appropriate communications.
Hah. There. Considerate, thoughtful and no laughing. Our relationship is saved.

Thank you, very much, for saving our relationship.

I'll check the Spam filter.
