Rec contr' Amor non es guirens lai on sos poclers, s'autra.

You've never been afraid of hard work, but you've been doing more than your fair share of it lately, and you're badly in need of a break. So, take it. Let yourself go. Your sign is supposed to be excessive, extravagant and lavish when it comes to recreation, or anything else that strikes your fancy. All this self-discipline may be good for the soul, but not too good for your love life. Make some coffee and get out there.

Well, I've just come off a week's vacation, so I haven't been doing a lot of hard work lately, but I am starting up a week and a half of work straight (that's only because I don't know if I'm working next Sunday or not, it could be longer). At least the coffee part is right.

self-discipline? do they even know me?

"A new field of interest is likely to require much of your concentration for the next several days, Anya. You could be studying a new spiritual discipline, or perhaps an intellectual problem such as the workings of the Universe - or both. Your mind is especially sharp right now, and so this is a good time to begin a new course of study. The only caution: take occasional breaks so as to avoid a sore back and eyestrain."

Too late.  I went to bed early last night due to a sore back, but not eyestrain.  I'm currently reading "Holy Blood, Holy Grail" -- about the holy grail, mostly.  So far I've read about the Cathars (which I then, of course, had to go and google, so I spent several hours hunched over my laptop reading about them.)  and the Knights Templar, from conception to demise.  Now, we're getting into the "this story is fishy" aspect of it -- basically, how the dates of conception don't gel, and how the story, at times, is just a little too pat.  Anyway, conspiracy theory or not, it's an interesting read.

As I don't have a printer, I've had to mail off some cover letters to my mom, so she can print them, and give them to me, at which point I can fax/mail them off along with my CV, which my mom is also printing off for me.  If I had a new job, I could buy a printer, but to get that new job, I need a printer, and it's just an ugly ugly ugly circle.

Next week, however, I have a car.  I don't know for how long, but I do.  I might be looking for company for a drive out to my mom's house sometime mid-week, to check on the cats.  Anyone want to see Tali again, let me know.  Alternately, anyone willing to risk getting into a car with me driving, let me know.  (I would like to point out that I have never had an accident with me behind the wheel.  Only with me in the passenger's seat.)

I'm rambling again.  It must have to do with mornings.
