I just love that Gemini way with words.
Some days you win, some days you lose.
Some days are less successful than others.
One link from yesterday was to a rather cool site about Mithras, and how it was one of the largest pre-Xtian cults. Religions, actually. Deal is, I was pushing my dear old dad around a museum in London, and he spotted a cornice – piece, in the Museum of London, that had the astrological wheel depicted in symbols that are understandable, even to this day.
It was a – fairly recently – uncovered temple for that religion, from Roman London. About 2k years old, if I recall correctly.
Anyway, that story is also buried in the archives some place.
The wheelchair note was important because it put his eyes a little lower level, I would’ve missed the piece. And the current link, what I linked to originally, and what popped up in yesterday’s entry, it differed. Pointers weren’t pointing. Defaults were defaulting.
Tim (Capricorn) threw me a link, and that had a strange effect in that as I was cutting across the parking lot of the apartments, a tenant, “Hey, Kramer, Tim linked to you…”
More weirdness.
A little later, I was sitting at the computer at the other office, and the radio was going. I did a very quick, 30 second entry, and I was trying to wrap three songs from the radio into an entry. Failed pretty well, but it was a fun try, for a spur of the moment entry.
Yeah, I know I’m not supposed to post from work, but I was wrestling with a heavily formatted Word doc, and I was humming along, marveling at what the early version of REK’s material sounded like, and I tried to type something cute. In order to assuage my almost guilty conscience for doing something personal on their company’s time, I did remind myself that I slid into work almost an hour early.
Which, I did, because, Mercury is still backwards, and I had to go to teach a class last night.
Mercury and planet eclipses were the topic. Plus the upcoming series along the latent Scorpio – Taurus axis. And don’t forget, Mr. Mercury is backwards yet.
Nothing but near -misses, and flops for the day. The high point, and I’m not sure it really rates, but there’s a taco place in North Austin, in one of the oldest shopping centers in the area, and they had these home-made corn tortillas that were simply astounding.
