Well, we got our tax refund money. My initial thought was to donate it to charity, but Eric was not fond of the idea so we've decided to spend it on stuff GWB would not approve of. I got me a Tarot reading by someone who came highly recommended by todfox. I've known the reader through a BOTA study group and she's a sweet person who should probably be a therapist.

Now, bearing in mind that I'm getting this reading for fun; I haven't felt any doom on the horizon. So, anyone tells you psychic readings are squishy good-news fests that could apply to anyone- punch them in the jaw for me (no, not really). This reading was a pretty dismal affair that seemed to have a lot of jealousy and some betrayal and deception and other general bummerhood (including financial trouble). She saw a lot of stress (gave dates too) and challenges. She got the impression that after several months I will have many of my personal issues dragged up, dealt with, and resolved but it didn't look like it was going to be a 'fun' process (like I suppose that stuff ever is, but still...) and she thought it was possible the marriage might end. FUCK! I don't think there's really anything wrong with our marriage! I mean, it has it's little quirks and we're certainly both strange people when measured against the average Joe in America, but still... she mentioned that the best way to get through whatever it is will be to keep talking to each other. Well, we're very good at that, at least.

She did an I-Ching reading to get a little more insight (I think she felt bad), and I got hex 23, which means 'collapse', 'splitting apart'. Splendid.

I told Eric this, and he seemed to feel pretty down about it, and blamed himself for whatever is supposedly going to happen. We've decided to take a Star-Trek-time-paradox approach and see if we can't change it now that we see it coming. Hey, it worked in Terminator 2. :/ Then we consoled each other by having lots and lots of sex and making homemade lasagna. Eh, what are ya gonna do.

I wish I wasn't at work.

Lucky for you divinations tell what *may* come if you follow the path you're on. By knowing the posibilities, you can work towards choosing the future you want. Nothing is ever set in stone. If it were, we would all sink with the tides. Definately have faith in the Star Trek approach. :)

Thanks for the reminder. I tend to be a flow-with-the-tide sort of person, but this looks like a good time to grab the rudder, doesn't it? :)

To be or not to be...

Well... you can look at it two ways. It depends on what is more important to you. If you "grab the rudder" you can direct your life towards one direction. If you flow with the tides your trusting your life to fate.
Existentialism vs. Predestination
It's an age old battle isn't it. If you find the answers... let me know ;)
