Could be Worse. Could be Raining.

Mercury Retrograde is in full force, and it won't be stopping for breath until the end of July it seems. Just some of the weird things that have been happening:

(1) The cosmos has been doing its darned best to keep me from buying a new mp3 player, specifically, an iRiver T10. After a series of failed attempts at making the purchase, I decided not to push it anymore lest I be struck down by lightning or something similar for being so thick-headed.

(2) I've been getting weary of playing Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines. Loading times are a bitch, and the plot is drowning from too many side quests. Might uninstall it later or tomorrow.

(3) Things have never looked bleaker at work. I've been feeling the crunch for weeks now, but this time I think something might happen that could compromise my future in this company. While I do prefer doing something else -- something I like doing, for starters -- it's undeniable that this job still pays the bills and it's going to be difficult for me if I let go of this for now. Three words: KEEP YOUR COOL.

(4) To affirm all of these, I just had my cards read by a friend earlier this evening and he said that right now more so than ever, negative things have been coming at me from all directions, whether or not it's because of Mercury Retrograde.

And in the middle of this emotional wasteland is You. I suppose I should be grateful, if anything, You've been teaching me to be really patient -- regardless of the fact that You're not even aware of it, or my feelings for You for that matter.

Sigh. I suppose I could wait (like I had any choice). Let's just hope by the time things start looking up for me, You'd still be there. If not with me, then at least somewhere near me.
