Dr GB:
I learned: 1. don't dress like a Russian prostitute. This girl in the bar did and she looked like she was a Russian prostitute, even though I later found out that she wasn't. 2. Don't talk bullshit about astrology. This prostitute was saying: "You're a Gemini aren't you". "No" "What are you then?" "A Scorpio". This went on with everyone and each time she got it wrong she said, "I bet you're born at the beginning/end of your sign, so you pick up traits of the previous/next sign", "that's because sign X is opposite your sign, that's why I thought you were an X", "I bet your moon is in Y, that's why I thought you were .....". I couldn't stop myself. I asked if any of her planets were in Uranus. Puerile, I know.

Dr GB:
MY DAY by Dr GB1. I was supposed to send something to everyone and I completely forgot, and now everyone in the building is whining about how they weren’t consulted. Luckily our e-mail system is notoriously shite so I just sent it with a note saying "From enquiries received I think this may not have reached you all originally"….ahem.2. I rang someone to cancel a meeting: they’ve traipsed over here anyway because their office can’t pass on messages. Waste of time.3. As I walked through reception after getting rid of this man, I heard the Russian prostitute waiting by the lifts. I’ve walked up to the fourth floor just to avoid her.The End.

Never. But I had a dream last night that Wax lived in his parents house, but it wasn't his parents house and it was in the country and not in the suburbs. Wax and I were there outside drinking some cold beers in the summer sun talking about things we like to talk about. And Sleepy came to visit while she was in the neighborhood for some reason, she was very quiet and communicated mostly with knowing smiles and nods. Wax was cooking a giant roast beef on the grill and it smelled delicious. Myk showed up after a while, too.

The prolific flare-producing sunspot group #9026 unleashed another moderately strong SolarElvis flare on June 10. The eruption was accompanied by a partial halo coronal mass ejection (CMEhunka burnin love) that might be Earth-directed and arrive in the vicinity of our planet on June 13.
