those dreams are only chilly because someone steals your covers.

Exactly! :D
Are you kidding? I'm from WI. I slept in snow drifts as a child. Alaska doesn't scare me! Bears? Bah! We had Real Wisconsin Huskies! Salmon? Try Sturgeon! I'm ready! I'm prepared!

Brr... I'm putting on a jacket. :D

Ooh, Dove dark chocolate has fortunes!!

It took several to get to these ahem :p Mine said:

* Get your feet massaged (good idea, think I can train Mae?)
* Go to your special place (a bit new age'y for me)
* Follow your instincts (you sure? they usually lead me off a cliff)
* Wink at someone diving past today (from a bike?)

Much better than a horoscope, though fattening.

I spend too much time on TD/TE. Your dove chocolates have me checking my horoscope (no fortunes to be had...) Yesterday's was nice, saying I should have challenges, but be fruitful, etc... today's says I'll be standoffish, argumentative and looking for fights where there are likely none to be had. Great.

I'll have to harrass my sis later (because good-natured harrassment is always fun!) or something.

I like the chocolate forcast better....

Weekly Forecast for October 16, 2006

Says I should "Walk boldly toward your future on Monday. The beginning of the week is, to paraphrase a certain romantic comedy, the beginning of the rest of your life, and you might as well approach it with your all. (my life is a comedy allright) Happily, romance is certain to figure in somehow. (yeah right) And, on Tuesday and Wednesday, so is a new activity -- something healthy, perhaps cardiovascular -- something that you genuinely enjoy doing. (ooh, maybe my bike Bradley will be back from the shop?) Thursday is for taking care of business, and Friday and Saturday likewise find you paying bills, making phone calls, answering the door. On Sunday, pretend you're a plant that needs shade: Stay in."

SadieKate: It's bright red, so I'm hoping the holly bushes think it's some kind of oddly-shaped relative they need to be kind to. I have named her Darth. I don't doubt you will understand why. :D

Mine:
Take care of pressing work-related stuff and errands on Monday while you've got the chance (Noooo, not responsibility!); Tuesday and Wednesday are chock-full, and you'll want a little extra time to think about or handle romantic matters.(Or be at work, and sit there, thinking about all the things I'drather be doing at home...) While life and love could be a little overwhelming now, at least it's interesting! Towards the end of the week, you're asking the right questions when it comes to love, whether you're seeking answers from a certain someone or your own heart.(um.... That gets me in trouble...) And this weekend, exploring all the possibilities is not only fruitful, it's great fun - and (bonus!) luck's on your side. (what's that whistling? Is that the cute guy from work, or a bomb flying through the atmosphere in my direction?):D

Uhm... yeah. Um... *sigh*

Queen, good to know about the job. Just curious as to whether it was a good thing to be back in it.

Thanks for the update on Fish. Isn't the FishFry back in a new school? How quickly I forget when faced with the prospect of a lovely steelhead.

Dirtdiva, Darth because both are giants? Here I go being obtuse again.

I'm off for some chocolate surveying. Three kinds here - California, Oregon and Vermont - which are demanding a tasting with some lovely Portuguese Port brought home from the trip to Oregon. Tomorrow, Oregonzola from the Rogue Creamery, perhaps paired with some crisp pears.

Yellow is visiting from Yewtah. She and Bubba are working on solving the world's problems. Expect world peace soon. I better get the port out to them to keep the solutions flowing.:D

Darth = Darth Vader. Dirt has come over to the "dark side" and bought a road bike....

This sounds sinfully delightful. Some people do have all the fun. :cool:

Have a splendid visit with Yellow and Bubba. I do not think there are any TE members near me and definitely no TD'ers.
I am looking forward to world peace. :)

It's great to be home! The job will do for now while I try to figure out if I want to stay in mental health or if it's time to move on. I've been doing this for a looooong time and might like to try something new...know any good jobs that you can forget about when you go home for the day???? :D

President of the United States? You can forget about it while at the office too...

(Oh, sorry. I guess that's just the current guy who can do that. :D)
