I try to say “goodbye” and I choke

Hello, Ducks!

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

Happy Birthday to David who turns twenty-four today somewhere in Delawhere.

Happy Birthday also to Crystal, who also turns twenty-four today, in Fran Sancisco, where they think Rice-A-Roni™ is a treat.

Yet another day of birthdays with not a single one in The City Of Brotherly Love Handles…where the hell are We gonna get cake?

*****************************************************

From The “Stupid Stuff We Gotta Do” Department, We shall be picking up some shekels today by taking a selfie at Macy’s for some sort of survey.  Seriously.  We are also testing a bath product (NOT bath salts) and, later in the month, participating in a focus group, except We forget what We’re focusing on.

Never let it be said that Our life is not interesting.

********************************************************

Switching gears, We are not going to stop talking about Two Street: A Tale of Star-Crossed Mummers  until We hear that every single available ticket has been sold.  (They only play through Saturday, so it’s not like We’re talking about an eternity or anything.)

But, just in case you would like some third-party opinions in addition to Our Own, here is a collection of their reviews to date (please note that We, too, are quoted therein…and, if you happened to miss Our e-pissode with Our review, click on the link):

And here is where you go to buy tickets to shut Us up:

**************************************

In other Fringe news, The WaitStaff Sh!ts The Bed!

 was SOLD OUT (and very well-received)  both Friday and Saturday nights, so if you want to curry favor with Us by showing up  (because mmmm….curried favor) get your tickets now and/or quick, fast and in a hurry: 

http://fringearts.com/event/the-waitstaff-sht-the-bed-10/ 

The show continues Friday and Saturday at 8, and Sunday at 6,  at L’Etage, and, if you perchance lay your hands upon tickets for Saturday, you will encounter the extra added attraction of Us Our Own Self Personally working box office.  Because We’re multitalented like that.

**************************************************

If, on the other hand (the one where she wore a glove), you want to find Us on Sunday, We will be found at OurSistahOvella’s matinee of Bent , details of which can be found here:

*****************

Speaking of lemurs on Uranus,  (howZZAT for a segue?), here is a flashback to Our FIRST Virgo video, the one with the naked angel:

In other other news, We have Our schedule at the Murder Mystery Factory for September.  We will be performing this Friday, September 12 and Friday, September 26.  If you are interested in seeing Us perform in same, holla at Us.  (For those naked skimmers who may not be aware, We have been promoted to A Position Of Power at the Factory, and so will be performing somewhat less.)

And heeeeerrrre’s the HorrorScope:

In celebrity birthday news, celebrities whose birthdays were ruined by being on September 11^th include Harry Connick Jr., Lola Falana, and Kristy McNichol.

Aries

You'll have yet another disastrous first date when you get something stuck between your front teeth and a crosstown bus.

Taurus

The reality turns out to be okay, but when you heard the phrase "taco truck," you pictured a giant taco that was also a truck.

Gemini

While it's true that someone in Baltimore loves you, this is less a reason for a jaunty T-shirt than a cause for genuine concern.

Cancer

The stars hear your unasked question, and the answer you seek is: "If they keep losing their opener to the Pirates, way more than 103 years."

Leo

You'll be spared a potential source of great conflict and divisiveness in your life this week when it's born dead.

Virgo

Don't worry: There is nothing wrong with you that emergency brain surgery and a quadruple bypass within the next 90 minutes won't solve.

Libra

Your lips are red and chapped because you keep licking them. To balance this out, lick yourself raw everywhere else.

Scorpio

Next week will call for many, many pairs of leather pants, which would be fine with you if they didn't have to be the kind of pants with asses in them.

Sagittarius

The sudden spike in the salmon population is no surprise to anyone who knows the real reason you like swimming so much.

Capricorn

You'll soon be feeling like your old self again thanks to a sudden and tragic relapse into alcoholism.

Aquarius

A regular routine can provide much-needed structure, but you might be better off if you didn't start every day with a guy trying to saw your head off.

Pisces

It's probably best if you just put your head down and keep sharpening pencils for the next few years.

Namaste, MotherFuckers.

In gaseousness,

Starzina Starfish-Browne

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.

Hello, Ducks!

Starzina Starfish-Browne here with your Eric’s Daily Horoscope for MoaningMonday, January 9, 2012.  In a fit of industry this weekend, We took down Our Twissmas Twee just ONE DAY after The Feast Of The Epiphany (why dat betch gess her own feass, We ain’t gots no damn idea (Who the hell let Sucretia in here?  Mitochondria, lock the door!  Saliva, call the POlice!)), which would be the earliest We have ever done such a thing since We started erecting (ahem) a twee.

Nice weather We’re having, though.

Is it just Us, or was there enough comedy in that first paragraph to last the entire week?

Meanwhile, poor Himself.  If he’s not having the recurring nightmare in which he still has to report to the EAC every day, despite having been made redundant and earning no salary, then he’s having the recurring nightmare about going back to school and having to take the final for a class he’s never attended, or the recurring nightmare about being stuck on top of some high place and unable to get down.  It’s a wonder he still has the balls to go to sleep at all.  Fortunately, there’s no shortage of balls around here.

In other news, whatever is going on in The Heavens, it is clearly a full moon on the WorldWideInterWebNetz this morning, as the cray-crays are out in full force.

And to top it all off, Kristy McNichol is a lesbian.  Who saw THAT coming?  Well, apparently not all those people who are saying, “Who the fuck is Kristy McNichol?”

Speaking of Aretha Franklin’s hat, go watch this:

 And share it with your friends:

http://youtu.be/qQ4zUrLmBPg

Meanwhile, it occurs to Us that Kristy McNichol and Meredith Baxter Birney were both on Family, and have both come out as lesbians.  Sada Thompson always struck Us as a little butch as well…One wonders what Charlene Tilton would have to say about all of that.  Alternatively, The HorrorScope:

(OMG, this just in, it is apparently Kate Middleton’s birthday!  How We managed to be uninformed of this fact until this very moment, We haven’t got any idea!  Of course, We’ve heard precious little out of The Royals since the nuptials…Her Royal Heinie Princess Kate must be pounding the Princely Pony morning, noon, and night.  Anorexic bitch.)

Your family is even more important to you than usual today, (And yet, We don’t see any of them doing Our chores or running Our errands.  Chop, chop, people!  This house ain’t gonna clean itself!)

so make sure that you’re listening carefully (Sorry, what?)

and letting them know you’re there for them. (No, We are HERE for them.  Being THERE would require that We move.)

You can score some major points!  (Especially if Prince Harry is the goalie.  Scrum, Bay-Bee, scrum!)

(That’s a rugby word, ya know.  We would tell you what it means, but there are ladies present. Use your imaginations.)

Can’t decide whether to take the plunge on a big purchase, a new relationship or another potentially perilous venture?  (That sentence was just one P shy of being alliteratively annoying.  Asshat.)

(Heh. She said “pee shy”.  By the seashore.)

You may be acting too cautiously (So We should be careful not to do that?)

(Heh.  See what We did there?)

— beware of second-guessing yourself.  (But what if Our first guess was wrong?)

Right now, you might as well jump right into the deep end!  (That’s what Princess Kate said to her hubby on their wedding night.)

(That was a little buggery joke.  The Brits love buggery jokes.  (What’s that?  You don’t, you say?  Too bad, so sad, anal sex with your dad.))

Have the courage to face whatever happens, (Starzina Starfish-Browne gives good face.)

and more importantly have confidence in yourself. (We are wearing Depends™.)

Hesitation and diffidence will only cause important opportunities to pass you by. (To say nothing of their knockers.  (No, really…say NOTHING.))

Today you might feel the urge to be reflective. (Wow.  That’s heavy.  Really heavy.  We’ll have what she’s smoking.)

Allow yourself some time to think about the past, but only for a small amount. (All things considered, We’d rather think about the pasta.)

The longer you loiter on memory lane, the harder it will be to be mindful of the present.  (“Loiter” is a peculiar word, no?  Loit…loiter…loitest… appears as though it should be related to “toilet”…okay, never mind.)
