Mercury retrograde is in effect.

It's been a long week and a hard one so far.

Ive been vulnerable and open to people and that has been frankly awesome, but right now Im tired and I feel emotionally whipped.

Im tired of being hit where it hurts. Too many people have joined in on the fun. Too many technical snafu's have abounded.

My fortitude is staggering a bit.

Yep, sounds just like the last merc retrograde.

I used to never believe in the concept of a mercury retrograde (which started around last monday and comes every 3 months or so) and I wonder if ignorance isnt bliss. But over the years, Ive started to see its a period of time when things go awry as humans seem to lose their sense of place. Its difficult to quantify and hard to prove, but Im not doubting there is something going on....

Even tho it seems thats its all for the good, the pain can suck frankly.

And I tend to hit back when tagged.

Cause Im now tired of it.

JPennant: Its been a pretty horrible week.
JPennant: but
JPennant: I didnt know you were busy snapping pictures when my back was turned. Sneaky, yo. ;-)
allaboutgeorge: Not too many pictures.
JPennant: heh
allaboutgeorge: I can't do everything overtly, now.
JPennant: I unnerstand the procedure, just a different feeling when YOURE the one being stalked and tagged ;-)
allaboutgeorge: D'jeet yet?
JPennant: nope
JPennant: cuppa coffee and a bagel this morn to calm my nerves, thas it.
JPennant: Im in country song mode
JPennant: "I pissed off my girlfriend"
JPennant: "my room mate threw me out"
JPennant: "aint no hope o money"
JPennant: "and Im JUST looking for a place in to sleep in the honey"
JPennant: Oh wait.. thats a blues riddim
JPennant: Da dada DUM.. dadumdadum.. da da daDUM.. dadumdadum
JPennant: heh
JPennant: So, my girlfriend still loves me, but made it clear if I ever fuck with her sense of freedom, she's gone.
JPennant: but Im back in the tenderness
JPennant: I may be out of a place, and facing hanging out in a bus station, but I feel free
JPennant: I shaved off my beard, so I feel less homeless
JPennant: and somehow, I get the sense that if I stay on track, it wont be as perilous as I believe, while I continue my mission.
JPennant: So, yeah - Im ok. I think. :-)
