It’s been a very up-and-down day today. I was high as a kite, and then was stupid enough to open an email from someone chewing me out and I crashed again. Then a few more emails from people who actually have positive things to say instead of insults to me, and I’m high again. And after some silence, I’m down. Then I get a phone call from a guy trying to guilt-trip me. Then I got a polite rejection, and I’m not sure where that puts me. I think I’m generally a bit low. And yes, there are hormones contributing to this roller coaster. That and the fact that I didn’t get to bed until 4:30a.

I just retrieved my horoscope for the day, which I wish I’d seen before the day started. Anyway…Jade, this one’s for you, cuz this horoscope apparently just reiterates what you’d already told me earlier:

Today’s Forecast
Sometimes when your own motives are in doubt, it’s best to look the other way instead of rushing head on into a situation. Don’t ignore it, exactly — just put it on the back burner until you’re more sure of yourself.

The Bottom Line
Your memory is a steel trap. What you need to recall will be at your fingertips.

In Detail
An automatic response may be exactly the wrong move to make today, so make sure you think before you do just about anything. A few hot potatoes may get tossed your way, but you can still take a moment or two to consider the best course of action before committing to one way or the other. In fact, just taking those split seconds to get a grip on the situation could make all the difference in the world.

Oops. I’d already done a few things rashly and had, well, unkind results. Oh well. 5 o’clock whistle blew, and I’m blowin’ this joint.
