Time keeps on slipping, slipping, slipping






Hello, Ducks!




Starzina Starfish-Browne here with your Eric’s! Daily! Horoscope! for FriedEgg,  January Twoth, 2015.



We don’t want to be disgusting (much), so We won’t go into great detail about the quantity of things that are issuing forth from the humungous pimple on the side of Our nose.  However, We’re fairly certain We’ve found the Lindbergh baby.  And Amelia Earhart.  Or at least her purse.



Also, Happy New Year.



(Remind Us to come back here and insert a joke about Justin Bieber’s balls dropping.)



Happy Birthday to Robby, who turns twenty-four today right here in The City That Loves You (On Your) Back. 




Happy Birthday also to Joe, who also turns twenty-four today, also right here in The City Of Brotherly Love Handles.  Joe directs all of Our videos (about which more later), as well as Our one-Ass(tromalogical)-Ho(roscopulist) show, LOOKING FOR URANUS: Starzina Starfish-Browne’s Comeback Tour,  which We hope to resurrect in the new year.




We stayed in and hid from the new year yesterday, so We have little or nothing to report.  (We were mourning Our future ex-husband Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s marriage to Someone Else. (If you missed yesterday’s e-pissode, there’s much more there there than there is there here, so check it out: http://ericsdailyhoroscope.blogspot.com/2015/01/when-youve-been-through-herbert-and-j.html ))




Although there is, randomly, courtesy of Catherine (with whom We shall be appearing at the Murder Mystery Factory tonight…and there are still plenty of tickets available, so hit Us up if you want an amazing discount), this:








And check out Our Best Of Holidailies™ Award  here:


and go to the e-ntry directly here:




Here is the link with which you may share Our Capricorn video with both of your friends:   http://youtu.be/m3Aa_X_HoVM



And here, for your further edification, is Our very first Capricorn video:





Upon reflection, these two videos are amongst Our much more densely-plotted cinematic efforts, due to the fact that Our director actually is a Capricorn (although quite unlike the unseen character from the videos).




We often ponder, in the endless time afforded to Us by the fact that We are almost universally ignored, how many of Our Gentle Readers actually realize that, if viewed in order, Our videos actually have ongoing plots and storylines.  Then, of course, We realize that Our Gentle Readers are all imaginary, and we curl up into the fetal position…




Moving on, didja know that We have been e-pisstling e-pissodes of these e-pisstles in one form or another since 2001?  And that the earliest dead-tree archival records from 2004 are now TEN YEARS OLD, and can be found (for a small fee) here: http://www.lulu.com/shop/eric-singel/erics-daily-horoscope-2004/paperback/product-300894.html  ? 



Thank Gawd We didn’t stray from the point.

In “celebrity” birthday news, Our “celebrity” birthday website lists no fewer than FIVE “web video stars” born today.  We’ve never heard of any of them, and We’re certainly not going to dignify them with a mention herein.  Except, of course, for “web video star” Faze Dirty, but only because We want to get to say “Faze Dirty naked”.




 Does it occur to no one that We are a web video star of whom no one has ever heard?




And, of course, that forcing Us to say things like “Faze Dirty naked” is a sacrilegious violation of ACTUAL celebrity Gabrielle Carteris’s birthday?



And now, as time keeps on slipping, slipping, slipping into the future, and We need to ablute Ourself in preparation for the Murder Mystery Factory, here, in lieu of call-and-response with AssHatted Ass(tromalogical) Ho(roscopulist) Kelli is A Reading From Madame Olivia:



Greetings Starzina ~

It is very good to see you again.

Madame Olivia doesn't want to interrupt your labors but this might be a good time to think about the spiritual aspect of things: the Oneness, the Great Other, the Timeless, the Unseen. A moment of open-ended reflection in the day, every day, will suffice, and you will be suffused with widened perspective and refreshment. On a personal note, every morning Madame Olivia enjoys doing one yoga pose and brain-singing a line from a song: Who knows One?/ I know One/ One Spirit,/Of heaven and earth. It opens up the day ahead.

Dear Aries, Madame Olivia has a soft spot in her heart for you, and so admires you when you are assertive. And also, of course, when you are not! Just take care with your presentation. It's a PR thing: the basic product (you) is solid and kind and eminently worth listening to. It's good to be your own strong self, especially now. Everyone will benefit.

Remember that you are in an ocean of love

Madame Olivia sends to you her own positive energy and best wishes for your continued journey.




Namaste, MotherFuckers.



In gaseousness,


Starzina Starfish-Browne

Listen to Jesus, Jimmy… do I need to test your urine?






Hello, Ducks!




Starzina Starfish-Browne here with your Eric’s! Daily! Horoscope! for Friday’s Eve (for that “not-so-fresh” feeling), July 24nd , 2014.



Happy birthday to Kim, who turns twenty-four today right here in The City Of Brotherly Love Handles.



We are exhausted this morning, as We had dreams involving both Thanksgiving AND Christmas (it IS still July, isn’t it?) in which We had to do all the preparations for each.  Then, when We came downstairs in Casa du Crackpot and began Our morning computations, Our mouse (computer mouse, mind you…We don’t have pets, rodential or otherwise) breathed its absolute last and needed to be replaced.



Fortunately, said mouse had warned Us of its imminent demise on a previous occasion, so We had a back-up mouse waiting in the wings.  We were so proud of Ourself, being prepared like a Boy Scout like that.  (Usually, We’re only prepared FOR a Boy Scout.)



We trust you all had a wonderful Batman Day yesterday, and enjoyed all-the-cake-you-could eat in honor of Daniel Radcliffe’s birthday.



We mention yesterday because We have so little new to report today that We’re just gonna sneak in a lot of recaps and hope nobody notices.  (The naked skimmers, of course, will be fine.  (Hi, naked skimmers! (Nice place for a merit badge, Boy Scout!)))



Our energy is waning by the second.  We have two things We are supposed to do later today, and We can already feel Ourself not doing them.  (Fortunately, no one has seen Our to-do list except Us.  So, when it doesn’t turn into a “ta-da!” list, nobody will know.)



We thought We might re-energize Ourself earlier, when We put “all-you-can-eat” and “Daniel Radcliffe” in the same sentence, but no such luck.  (Day-um, if even THAT didn’t work, you KNOW We’re running on empty.)



Two things We DO have that ARE new:



Beyoncé-logue: “All the Single Ladies”:






Stuff Southern Women Say:






And now, a few return engagements from long-ago yesterday:



We have moved into the sign of Leo, which contains, amongst other things, the highest percentage of sexxxy-assz mens in the zodiac.  Our Leo video is above, and here is the link with which you may Cher it with your friends: 




You may also recall that, for something completely different, yesterday We plugged something (oh, get your mind out of the gutter) that had nothing to do with Us Our Own Self Personally.  The folks thus plugged (heh) were happy with their plugging (smut…it’s not just for breakfast any more), and are consequently back for Round Two (relax…We’re not gonna do this EVERY DAY).



This time around, instead of Our long-winded plugging (that just doesn’t get old, does it? (which, if you miss Our verbosity, can be found at http://ericsdailyhoroscope.blogspot.com/2014/07/romeo-was-restless-he-was-ready-to-kill.html )), We are simply going to quote from one of their (Tribe of Fools) pitches:



If you love Tribe of Fools, (controlled) physical danger on stage, mummers, gay mummers or foul mouthed reinventions of Shakespeare characters who live in South Philly, I hope you can help support this production. You won't regret it….”





You’re back?  Good…We hope you were generous.  As a special reward, here is a link to the Tribe of Fools’ Fearless Leader’s blog: 





Meanwhile, back to a subject near and dear to Our heart: Us.



We still have a sketch to finish for The WaitStaff Sh!ts The Bed; We are murder-mysterying tomorrow, and have people coming to see Us, but We need to figger out how many and who; and We are trying to get LOOKING FOR URANUS: Starzina Starfish-Browne’s Comeback Tour  back on the boards.  So excuse Us if We’re just a wee tad distracted…



In celebrity birthday news, it is Jay McGuiness’s birthday.  Jay McGuiness is a poor man’s Harry Styles.  (If you don’t know who either of those gentlemen are, relax…it just means more for Us.  (Also, you are old.  (It’s Amelia Earhart’s birthday, too...why’n’tcha go look for her?)))



It’s a good day for purchases  (Fine…how much for Louisiana?)




(Heh.  See what We did there?)




(Oh, please.  Helen Keller saw what We did there.)




— but better for practical stuff like computers or furniture than for toys.  (Ya know what’s practical?   Needing a new mouse, and ALREADY HAVING ONE.  Who’s practical NOW, Bee-Yotch?)




You should be able to get a good deal, especially if you’re buying from someone willing to haggle.  (Fortunately, the number of people willing TO haggle is exponentially larger than the number of people willing to SAY “haggle”.)




At the moment, there’s nowhere else you’d rather be than home, and while you can’t click your heels together and get yourself there, probably because of a work situation, all you can think about is shuffling through the front door, pulling down the shades and curling up with the cat on the couch.  (Okay, that?  Was a really long-winded way to say, “Kiss Us quick, We’re Judy Garland.”)




Fade to black.  (See, no matter how much they SAY, “Orange is The New Black”, “fade to orange” will never replace “fade to black”.  Unless you’re getting a spray-tan.)




That’s not the kind of thing you’d ever do, though — unless you’d really had it with the entire world.  (Have you MET Us?)




Be flirtatious with someone who you’d like to see more of. (We tried that.  That’s how We wound up with this restraining order.)




By showing that you’re approachable and interested, it’s less intimidating for this person to ask you out. (Oddly enough, guys always confuse “asking Us out” with “asking Us to GET out”.)




Relax, smile and use body language to give the green light.  (Our body speaks in tongues, Bay-Bee.)



 


Namaste, MotherFuckers.



In gaseousness,


Starzina Starfish-Browne
