Horoscope for Friday, April 30, 2010
“Today you might feel a little out of sorts, Gemini, and your concentration could be diminished. You might even have a little trouble focusing on your work. Don’t worry about it. It’s more mental than anything else, and it will pass. You might feel the need to drink coffee all day to stay alert. Try to exercise some restraint on this, since it could be counterproductive.

Boxes sit in my car for a week.
I bring the boxes into the house. I put one together. I look at everything sitting everywhere and give up for the night.

When my mom calls, and I answer, and she realizes I’m driving, she hangs up on me. Not out of concern for my safety, she just gets tired of hearing me call everyone “fuckface”.
