January

I'm not a big follower of astrology, however, I thought it was interesting that last week, my horoscope said that someone important would be calling. Sure enough my phone rang with a number I did not recognize. Normally I would try to screen it, yet for some reason I was inclined to answer it.

Of course, I shouldn't have.

Isn't it strange how things like this end up happening at just the wrong time. How someone can ruin your day with a simple phone call. I was surprised at myself of how peaceful and calm I remained, however, I saw how it affected me the rest of the day. However, I am going to stay positive and try to stand by what my horoscope says:

"Communication is your specialty, Gemini. On Monday you will talk your way out of a difficult dilemma. Steer clear of pessimistic thoughts when your ruler Mercury squares Saturn on Wednesday. Don't let negativity enter your mindset. A person with influence may appear in your life on Friday. Doors may open, thanks to your new mentor. The chance to reconcile with a former foe may come up on Saturday. You may feel forgiving and ready to forget a grudge."

While I talk all day, I'm not sure I would say communication is my specialty. I am quite passive in conversations and rather enjoy listening to conversations and soaking in what others have to say and input when I want to. In any case, let's see how this week goes. I had a pretty good weekend, so I hope that leads into an even better week.

Two runs and one night of basketball in two days ... I'm off to a good start :)
