Not Engaged Yet

Horoscope Today... Oh the irony...

So I'm one of those superstitious people.  I only pick up pennies if they're head's up, and if they're head's down I give them to a friend so they have good luck.

That said, I make wishes at 11:11.  AM and PM.  I even touch something blue because of the old wives tale/rhyme (touch something blue, your wish will come true) when I wish.  I'm ridiculous.

That said, my bestie makes fun of me for this all the time.  About two weeks ago she says, "wouldn't it be perfect if Chris proposed on November 11- 11/11!?"  And so of course the idea has been planted in my head and it's completely unrealistic (uhh I woke up at 6am and went to class and won't be home until 11:30 tonight because of work)... but still, it managed to stick.

No, I don't need to be talked down.  I do talk too much, though.

All of that was for this.  I logged onto FB and my horoscope for today is:

"Don't expect to meet the partner of your dreams today, Aries. Rather, your romantic hopes are likely to meet with frustration. It would be better to devote your energies to something more realistic, such as your financial situation. It probably does need some attention, wouldn't you agree? If you redirect your energy, the rewards are more likely to be forthcoming."

Thought it was pretty ironic.  FB gave me a talking down before I needed you ladies hahaha.

Guess I'll start on re-working that budget then...

    I think she just meant two elevens but said November 11...then clarified with the 11/11.

    ah ok, that would make more sense.  But my bro is big on the 11:11 thing and he's all for 11/11/11.  I doubt 11/11/10 means anything to him, haha.

    I've given up trying to predict my BF's proposal someday.  He's going to trick me no matter what :)

    Yep, I just meant that today is 11/11.  I'm actually not that excited for next year because it's 11:11:11, not 11:11.  I don't know. Something about 3 repeated odd numbers (1 is odd, 11 is odd, 3 is odd) and I have a problem with odd numbers.  So the fact that it's 11/11/10 balances it out because the 10 is even, and when you add 11+11+10 it equals 32, which is my favori...nevermind.  My OCD is getting a bit much to try to rationalize.  Please ignore.

    Short answer:  Yes.  11/11 is what I meant.

    Jacqui, I just pictured you talking in circles, counting on your hands, and pulling your hair out.
    Somewhat like that movie 27.

    That was funny.

    I was inspired by this post, and I just went to check my horoscope.  According to astrology.com:

    You should find that your people are having a hard time interpreting what you've got to say -- so maybe you need to defer any important communication until tomorrow. Things should make more sense then.


    So, if I come off like an idiot in my posts today, it's totally not my fault.

    Damn it...go work on your financial situation.  Go shopping and spend that money!

    (I'm starting to think I may be a shoppoholic from the pattern in my posts.)
