Today has been a bummer…

You’ll probably encounter a bit of opposition along with today’s planetary energies, dear Capricorn. Even those who are usually right behind you will seem to be uncooperative. Try not to let this phase you too much. Resolve to follow through with your own instincts and work alone if need be. Once you’ve had a chance to advance your ideas further along on your own, you can present them again tomorrow.

I just read my horoscope and it seems to be on target once more. I am trying hard not to get into a space where I am wallowing in any form of depression… but truth be told things have been going positively. I have had at least one interview a day since I got back (except the weekend) and hope that leads to work as quickly as possible.

I decided I needed to work on AchtungMediaDesign today. I’m faced with a reality where I have a lot of doubts about my abilities right now… I have so much more to learn. On top of all that, I am wondering who is going to hire me? I’m just too old for companies right now and I will have to work on my own and build something.

On top of all that, I have to consider that I am playing too many instruments at one time. Chef? Web Designer? Graphic Artist? Restaurateurs? In a way all these things CAN work together but I have so far to go. Ugh!

Part of me thinks if I quit going to school and studied on my own I could do so much better. I am enjoying school, to a degree, but man is this stressing me out.

ugh…

Fall is Coming

A public gathering of some kind could attract you and your family tonight, dear Capricorn. Perhaps you’ll arrange to meet some friends there. You may feel good just being out with those you love, but you’re likely to be tired by the end of the event. Make sure you fortify yourself with nourishing food during the day. Take care of yourself so that you can have some fun.

A person has to have a liberal concept of what these horoscopes mean. ‘Money is in your future’ could mean I’ll find a nickel on the ground walking around or hit 4-Kings on a poker machine. Either way, its all relative.

The gathering could be my trip to Charlies bar last night where I hung out with Sergio and another nice guy; friend to Serg… but it was great just hanging out. No expectations, no needs, no concerns and was out of the house for a couple hours.

Tonight is the first night back to school for this quarter. Portland Ai was a huge huge mistake. I am a b+ to a student and this asshole gave me a D for a class that I thought I did reasonable well in. It kills me that if a student is doing so badly that he/she is unawares of that the instructor might say something. Basically, he let me walk of a short pier on a foggy night… asshole!!!!! I am so pissed. I got a C in another class… I don’t deserve it because I tried hard, but it was difficult and I can sorta see where the C comes from.

I have not received much feedback on the “Anger Management” entry and I was hoping to see more … like comments on the diary itself. However, a couple people told me what they thought. Curious, huh?

my brain

Sometimes your daydreaming may lead you way out of your body into a place well beyond time and space, dear Capricorn. Your romantic nature wants to escape into this plane and never touch back down to the real world. Feel free to take a giant step toward that which tickles your fancy. Take the more lofty approach and encourage others to share your dreams, instead of letting them weigh you down.

Wow, today’s horoscope is interesting. It is a true statement that I can get lost in the great idea over the reality that there is a lack of leverage in order to achieve that goal. Like opening a restaurant: a goal I have striven through over the last 6+ years.

So, the apartment is back in some order and its homey. I went running off into the night last night with Woody. We had a mission – go to the California border and buy lottery tickets. We got there at the stroke of 8pm… when they were locking the doors. Ha ha ha…. so – we really went out there so he could eat at McDonalds.

The other day I had lunch with DebW and over burgers on an impromptu lunch. It was good catching up with the woooman.

It was nice getting together with friends again.

Anger Management

Look for healthy ways to express any anger you’re feeling today, dear Capricorn. While emotions are not always something that we can control, how we express and deal with them is. How do you handle anger? Do you communicate effectively or wind up stuffing your emotions? Do you sometimes take your frustration out on others? Take a look at your coping skills today to see if there aren’t new ways to handle emotions you haven’t tried yet. Search the web or find a book. There’s a lot of information to be had.”

My horoscope caught me by surprise today. Odly, I felt very off all day long. Being here is not unlike feeling like being squeezed in a vice. People around me all day were just working my nerves so hard and I just could not release the tesnion. Adolfo came by and helped me get situated.

Oh, by the way… I am back in Las Vegas.

I am away from Oregon. The reason I left was WAS WAS originally that I could not find work and sustain a living without borrowing money or begging people I had no right to bug. I went up there and tried to find work in technology while I was going to school. One thing got in the way of another and I ended up flying back to Vegas to work a couple of times and so it just seemed clear I was really earning money in … yes you got it… Vegas.

As it happened, the uncle I have sung praises about and built a web site to worship for his art had a serious freakout and started saying I was angry all the time (ironic considering the beginning of this post) and laid into me one night after I had been working all day… I had not seem him in days… this was just wierd.

Eddie locked himself in his room and refused to even look at me. I told them in the beginning of September that I needed to move out. I had been telling them since July that if I could not find work that I was moving out. I went up there with every intention of staying. But the Twilight Zone of houses was getting out of control.

Diane, my cousin, was the voice between Eddie and I and man was that girl making up stories. She took situations she jacked up and turned them into some possesed meladrama.

On Tuesday I got up, vacuumed the house, cleaned, took out the trash, took out recyclables, pittered around and was in and out of the truck. So around 8:30 I was finished. Aldermans of Sherwood were all still in bed. SO I just left. This is Diane’s email to me:

From Diane Alderman of Sherwood, Oregon (my meth addict cousin):
this is Diane, you sneak out in the morning letting my cat out, and you know if you are so self fucking righteous and you think you are in the right, and didn’t do any thing wrong, you wouldn’t of have felt the need to be a sneaky LYING COCKSUCKER! you ran away you loser! I stood up for you, and I was too understanding even though I thought different about the whole thing . Thou protestith too much. You had to justify it for yourself because you knew you were screwing us over! I still cant believe I took your bullshit lying. Do you know how many times I heard on the radio and saw in the newspaper for looking for a chef. I knew you were lying about looking for a job, everybody knows that there is plenty of chef jobs here. You are just a 40 year old loser who cant be without a boyfriend and still sucking off your mom’s tit. Ifyou really did live for yourself, you would have had a career years ago. Instead you hide behind school and drama. you cause it every where you go. now I know why other family doesn’t want any thing to do with you! and dad did not say you could leave early , he did not say yes or no , he just didn’t think you would be stupid enough to do that, and we were almost positive that you were not the kind of person the FUCK FAMILY OVER. one of the worst things is that you act like this wasn’t a big deal AND YOU KNOW IT WAS HUGE TO US. I got sucked in by your bullshit, NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!! and guess what asshole, you didn’t give RMS a 30 day notice and that’s what counts in courts ! And we did not agree to this and you know it! You signed a lease with rms for a year and you were suppose to pay the 500 dollars for your dog, and we layed our neck on the fucking line for you again, to pay small portions to help you out! And SURPRISE you didn’t pay it! ! You signed a legal document with rms ,Idon’t know what dreamland your living in and Karma is going to get you and I cant wait, we let you get away with so much! I treated you like family and you treated us like strangers , and you shouldn’t even treat strangers like that ! We know know that you are a pathological LIAR & con, I should have not of been like family and understanding because I was understanding a lye,an d IKnew your lying, but I wanted everybody to be happy and let this be easy, because I actually thought you wouldn’t fuck us and the bills you figured out and sneaked it up here and you left because you knew you owed us so much more, And we know why you didn’t call rms, because you were hoping that we would just pay for your screw ups! Guess what we are not you know we couldn’t and what a hard time we have been through and you still did the worst thing at the absolute worst time. When you demanded me to make brownies for you I smiled and did it, and then you had the balls to tell me to shove the brownies up my ass because I am making you fat! That right there sums you up you are manipulative and you are a pro at turning things around on the people who don’t deserve it . You thrive on drama and lies, and you sure did clean up here, You made dad and I physically Ill, because of your bullshit lies and drama. You are the type of person to offer a ride to Washington to pick up a fiancé and when that person says we might sight see or see family you don’t even ask if there was any way that we could do that another time you just act like a 5 year old and turn around. You are a sick person, And when dad calmly talks to you about you yelling at me and calling me a bitch and a cow. you yelled that in the neighborhood all of the time. And you don’t think dad had a right to say something, You even finally told me that he was right and that you weren’t all joking, that you do hate women and its not my fault that Iam a woman.I f you read this and still think that you are right, I feel sorry for you, You are in deep denial and you will never change, You are not my family. family doesn’t do what you do! And you know you hurt us you hurt us and said it was no big deal, after this I don’t ever want to hear from you think of you or see you. YOU ARE NOT FAMILY! lATER AND GOODBYE TO YOUR LIES! you probably let our cat on purpose and we coulnt find him anywhere, and you know how much he means to me he is the only thing I have left from aaron my boyfriend that died, the only person you care about is yourself, I have never met anyone as selfish as you. You probably evjoyed every second of us stressed out and hurt because of what you did. I said it once and ill say it again you are sick and you need help! Oh ya and don’t you dare and play the gay card, you know we took you in with open arms and love, instead you shit on us and make our financial situation horrible , YOU STILL OWE MONEY DEPOSIT FOR YOUR DOG, you could have paid it and stayed like a grownup and stuck things out, We were so good to you and you know dad only got angry when you said Im moving out it s no big deal and you would string us along saying oh I don’t know if im moving I might stay and you knew you were going to leave , we did nt know what to do if you say you might stay how do we know to look for roomates. Y ou are manipulative and such a liar! You said that you also want to move because this is too much of a religious state! another lie and justification, You know this os the most liberal states and barely religious, its funny even you believe your own lies!!!!!!!!!!”

i dunno ’bout this one… i can kinda see it

It may be hard to go at your own pace, dear Capricorn, when you feel as if there are multiple sets of people moving in on your space and trying to get you to do things in a certain way or think in a certain direction. Your automatic response is to adapt to the situation and cater to everyone else’s agenda. This plan of attack may give you a nervous breakdown, however, when you find yourself being flung from one side of the arena to the other.

I know this should make sense….

Who’s a Funny Bunny!

So, I was torchuring Tom tonight with some bunny ears that were on clearance at Petsmart. God knows why I had to get them… but hell they were only $1.50. So, here are the pictures. I was laughing my ass off when he just sat there looking like he was absolutely miserable.

Scotty Nakamori

I have an account on 2ndLife.Com and this is my avatar. I changed him a lot since I first got him. I have modeled him after the angel Uriel… oh the surprise. In this shot he is in a bathhouse in 2nd Life. Yes, a bathhouse.

Capricorn… forgive thyself…

If your confidence has taken a beating lately, today’s energy will go far in turning this around, dear Capricorn. Even if you feel like you’ve made too many mistakes, it’s time to forgive yourself and to move forward. If you feel like you’re a failure, this actually has a chance of becoming a reality. By allowing yourself to err and to keep on trying, there’s no room for such self-fulfilled prophecies to come true. Believe in yourself and keep going. Resist drowning in self-pity.

Another insightful astrological precognition from the fine folks of MSN. No sarcasm included… but very interesting specifically in the circumstances I am experiencing right now.

Oh my hell…

dear Capricorn

An unusual sense of determination could drive you to complete a long-term goal that could change your life in some way. Perhaps you are seeking a new job, or experimenting with non-traditional ways of earning a living. You are a natural healer, dear Capricorn, and today this talent could unexpectedly increase. This is also a great time to combine the arts with modern technology, perhaps in such fields as computer graphics or sound engineering.

Interesting….!
