Hello, Ducks!
Starzina Starfish-Browne here with your
Eric’s! Daily! Horoscope! for Friday’s Eve (For That ‘Not-So-Fresh’ Feeling),
June 19st , 2014.
Happy Birthday to Rob,
who turns twenty-four today right here in The City That Loves You (On Your)
Back.
Faithful Gentle
Readers will recall yesterday’s saga of the demise of Our central air
conditioning. Thanks to all who
suggested toolbelted, Daisy-Duked repairmen who could come (heh) to Our aid. Help is indeed on the way, but will not be
here until tomorrow.
(Parenthetically
(hence the parentheses), We are patting Ourself on the back (because if We don’t,
who the hell is gonna?) for remembering to tell the repairpeople the detail
that Our AC gizmo is on Our roof.
Because, if We hadn’t told them that, they would have come right on over
that very minute, and then not been able to do anything. They’d’ve been pissed, We’d’ve been pissed,
and We’d’ve had to dig yet another hole in the basement to hide the bodies.)
Meanwhile, by shutting
OurHouseWhereWeLive up tight, We managed to keep it significantly cooler inside
than outside. Of course, it was in the
90s in The City Of Brotherly Love Handles yesterday, so “significantly cooler”
inside meant about 86. (Lest you feel
that We weren’t suffering enough to make you feel better by comparison.)
Today, on the other
hand, it is only in the 70s outside, so We have opened all the windows and are
letting the hot air out. (We have also
instituted a strict “no talking to Ourself” policy to aid in hot air removal.)
All of this is made
possible by a stringent adherence to Helmut Newton’s Third Law of Aerodynamics. Which is applied by standing on one leg and
singing “The Big-Fig-Newton” commercial theme song. (We, of course, are A
Highly-Trained Professional…do NOT try this at home.)
We vastly prefer,
however, when Our climate is controlled by a machine, the way Gawd intended,
and We don’t have to think about something as boring as the weather.
(We should note at this
juncture that We were only joking earlier…We are well aware that Newton’s Third
Law of Aerodynamics was formulated, not by Helmut Newton, but by Olivia
Newton-John, on a day when she was being particularly mellow.)
In other news, it
looks like it is deciding to rain, so some of these windows are going to have
to close. It is down to 84 degrees
downstairs, and 82 degrees upstairs.
Doesn’t hot air rise? Ya know
what, Barbie? Math? Math is not hard. SCIENCE is hard.
In other news, We find Ourselves (not that We
were looking for Us, but it’s a figger of speech) in the sign of Gemini, Our
video for which is above …and here is the link with which you may share it with
your friends: http://youtu.be/Yj7enrUk6js
))).
Also, for those of you who like cups of tea, and history, and someone
in a tree, here is Our previous Gemini video, which is the first
Starzina’s
Time of the Month Horoscope video We ever made. Just look how far We’ve come! (Ooops…did that
get in your eye?):
And here’s the HorrorScope:
Moe Howard of the Three Stooges was born
today. That explains a lot, dunnit?
Nyuk-nyuk-nyuk.
Don’t dismiss today’s major issue — even if
it seems kind of silly at first glance. (Wanna hear a silly major issue? The General’s privates.)
(Nyuk-nyuk-nyuk.)
You need to take it seriously if you want to
keep it from growing out of control. (Was that a fat joke?)
It should be manageable now. (Shoulda-woulda-coulda. (Buddha-gouda-barracuda.))
(What?)
Some wild news comes your way, but luckily,
just about all of it is positive for you. (Wild news would seem, generally, to
be more positive than tame news, no?)
The word should arrive via some higher-up you
were positive had never even noticed you, much less thought you were worth
thinking about. (So wait…Johnny Depp is gonna take Us to see Neil Patrick
Harris in Hedwig?)
Once
you’re past the amazement and you’ve discovered that you weren’t being ignored,
you need to make a big decision. (The
General’s privates…get it?)
(Nyuk-nyuk-nyuk.)
A wonderful bolt from the blue should make
that a lot easier! (Are you sure? Not a colt from the zoo? Or a dolt from Peru?)
Pay attention (Sorry…did you say something?)
(Heh…see what We did there?)
to your dreams for hints at what your
subconscious wants. (Ice cream is a dish
Moss Hart makes.)
We often repress desires without realizing
it. (We didn’t realize that. We’ll have
to force Ourself to stop.)
(Oh, wait…)
Stop over-rationalizing and give into a
fantasy or two. (It is completely rational that Johnny Depp would take Us to
see Neil Patrick Harris in Hedwig.
An irrational fantasy would be Neil Patrick Harris taking Us to
see Johnny Depp in Hedwig.)
Namaste, MotherFuckers.
In gaseousness,
Starzina Starfish-Browne

(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://sett.com/astrogeek895/. 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,

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.
