Hello, Ducks!
Starzina Starfish-Browne here with your
Eric’s! Daily! Horoscope! for JustAnotherMandingoMonday, January 7st,
2013. It has just come to Our attention
that We have been saying “2012” ever since the new year began, with the
exception of Turdsday, January Turd. And
guess what? We ain’t goin’ back to edit
it, neither.
It felt very strange not to e-pisstle on
YouPeople for two days this weekend, after have e-pisstled upon you virtually
every day since December 1th. However,
We did answer Our Own question about residual audience from Holidailies™ when
We posted Our lowest hit count in MONTHS for Fridays e-pissode. Why, We got more hits on Christmas Day itself
than We got on Friday. Yes, goys and
burls, We shall soon be re-evaluating this e-ntire e-ndeavor.
In random other news, in a fit of
something-or-another, We have taken up one of those New Year Pay-It-Forward challenges,
for which We still require two more participants; please see Our SitOnOurFaceBook
page status, and read the actual instructions.
It seems mostly harmless.
Our dreams continue to be epic; upon arising
yesterday, We penned this:
“It isn’t fair to have to make a bed in a
dream. In a dream, you should just have
to lie in it.”
Not to bore you with the entire story, but
this was in response to a dream in which someone actually wanted to go to bed
with Us (this is how you know it was a dream), and We felt compelled to make
the bed first. Thus preventing the
entire “going to bed” part. Sigh.
Meanwhile, last night, We had some long, involved
dream in which We disassembled Our refrigerator. Who DOES that?
Speaking of autistic…er, artistic endeavors,
here is how you would share Starzina’s
Time of the Month Horoscopes:Capricorn video with a friend:
And here are the HorrorScopes:
Oh. Our. God. We
thought it was just another day. Come to
find out, not only is it the birthday of Charles Addams, creator of The Addams Family, but also it is the
birthday of Butterfly McQueen, who didn’t know nothin’ ‘bout birthin’ no babies
in Gone With The Wind. And, as if that weren’t all enough excitement
for one day, it is also (are you sitting down?)
Millard. Fillmore’s. Birthday.
Does it get any better than this?
No, seriously…DOES IT?
Things are turning over (In their graves, no doubt.)
and changing for the
better (Okay, that? Does. Not. Happen.)
— so even if things feel bad today, you can at least take
heart (Whose?)
and remember that it is all for the best. (Shut up, Dr.
Pangloss.)
(That there was a litter-hairy reference. ‘Cause We’re cultured like that.)
Ride out this wave and enjoy the rest of the month! (Well,
how CHEERFUL!)
(We have a little rant to go off on about being cheerful,
but We may save it for tomorrow to give it proper time to Uncle Fester.)
It’s one thing to keep your hopes high, (It’s another thing
to be fucking annoying to everyone around you.)
it’s quite another
to be in complete denial as to what your real chances for success are. (Wait…We have real chances?!?)
Be realistic today. (Well, YOU’RE the AssHat who was getting Our
hopes up about having real chances. Make
up your damn mind.)
You are doing yourself no good by ignoring the facts that
are confronting you. (Sorry…did you say something?)
(Heh. SWWDT?)
Face them head on, (Should We put Our face on before We
head out to face them head on? This is
all very confusing…)
(Head, shoulders, knees and toes (knees and toes)…)
(Sorry.)
and you’ll see they are not as bad as you fear. (Is anyone still nakedly skimming? If so,
could you leave Us a comment? Or send Us
a naked skimming pixture?)
Renewal is in the air right now, (The Addams Family started
when Uncle Fester farted…)
so if you can just hold on and stay motivated long enough, (THAT sounds like fun.)
you will be able to enjoy a change of tides. (Somehow, We
just know there’s gonna be sand in Our Speedo™.)
This new tide will sweep in a much happier era in your
life. (Mmm-hmm. You don’t expect Us to hold Our breath, do
ya?)
It may just be one of those days. (Alternatively, it may be
just one fot hse lifetimes.)
You’re a little crabby or uncomfortable in your own skin,
or your crush suddenly seems not-so-hot. (Whatever you just said, what We HEARD was
that We will have crabs, a rash, and hot flashes. Yippee.)
Take it easy. (We
keep saying how easy We are, but no one will let Us prove it. (Okay, but first We’re gonna have to make
this bed…))
Try a little exercise or meditation. (Have you met Us?)
Consider cocooning tonight.
(Is it just Us, or does that sound like an awful lot of work?)
(Your Your-O-Scopes:
(Meanwhile, why We didn’t think of this sooner, We’ve got no idea, but
better laid than necking, as they say (and how right they are!). For
real live actual ass(tromlaogical) ho(roscopular) advice, please visit Our good
friend AstroGeek here: http://agskylab.blogspot.com/. Our Own
epistular musings are of use to you only insofar as making you feel better by
comparison, but he will give you actual pertinent advice for your very own
lives, based on upon the positions and transitations of all manner of planets,
planetoids, asteroids, Altoids™, hemorrhoids, and other heavenly flotsam,
jetsam, and Jetsons. Plus, he knows all about Uranus!)

Starzina
Starfish-Browne was born in the wagon of a traveling show…well, okay, not
really. She was actually born in Lowake, Texas, the daughter of a beautician
and either a garage mechanic or the town mailman. At sixteen, she escaped her
humble beginnings by running off with Doctor Browne’s Traveling Medicine Show
and, more to the point, Doctor Browne. Following the dissolution of this
unfortunate entanglement (Doctor Browne was a Virgo and Starzina is, of course,
an Aries), which produced a daughter, Starzina entered a contest in Soap Opera
Digest and won a scholarship to Oxford (yes, in ENGLAND), where she earned her
doctorate in the newly-created dual major of Astrology and Human Sexuality.
There is absolutely NO TRUTH to the rumor that Starzina’s second daughter has
Royal blood, despite tabloid photographs allegedly depicting her cavorting on
the Italian Riviera with Princes William and Harry, clad only in Prussian
helmets and armbands of questionable taste. Starzina currently resides with her
daughters in Philadelphia, the City That Loves You (On Your) Back, where she
enjoys Double Coupon Day at the local SuperCruise and “encouraging” the
coxswain of the Penn rowing team.
I'm sorry, but the thought of You meditating was just the comic relief I needed this morning. Somehow, I can't imagine You chanting "ohmmmmmm".
ReplyDeleteAs for making the bed, I say why bother? You're just going to get back in it at night anyway. Or better still, just STAY in bed. Then You'll never have to make it.
BTW... I am not nakedly skimming. I am sitting in my car waiting to go to work. It's too cold to be naked.
That is all.
