Observations from the Window 9.23

For my own reasons I did something rather extraordinary yesterday. To clear my head and do some thinking I completely shutdown the 'empire' for the day. For the most part I stayed away from flickr, tumblr, twitter, and everything else. I left my comp at home, ignored most of my email, and let the lights flash on my Droid until they gave up and stopped. A very introspective day that probably cleared up nothing at all but solidified a description. An enigma, wrapped in a riddle, shrouded in mystery. As of now it seems the world has done just fine without me.

I woke up to this horoscope today and realized I may have just possibly picked the wrong day for reflection.

“The melodramatic Leo Moon joins feisty Mars in your 1st House of Personality, encouraging you to let others know exactly how you feel. But you could come on too strong if you forget to consider their opinions, too. Slow down and think about what you're going to do instead of just doing it. Adding a short time delay to your responses will improve your chances of making the best decision the first time around.”

Damnit.

A Phillies update from the dubious record at best category. The Phillies became the first team to lose six in a row after winning their 98th game since the 1904 Giants. My dad will be laughing like hell when he hears that one.

The gods of baseball taunt me now.
