Astroglogical chart!

I just did one of them free astrological chart thingies online..
I don’t think I like me, I sound weird….

Sun is in 08 Degrees Scorpio.
Intense and complex by nature, you have extremely strong emotional reactions to most situations. Feelings are often very difficult for you to verbalize. Therefore you have a tendency to be very quiet – - to brood and think a lot. You seldom get overtly angry, but, when you do, you are furious and unforgiving. When you make an emotional commitment, it is total — you are not attracted to superficial or casual relationships. If you are challenged, you take it as a personal affront and tend to lash out and fight back in a vengeful manner. You love mysteries and the supernatural. A good detective, you love getting to the roots of problems and you enjoy finding out what makes other people tick. You are known to be very willful, very powerful and quite tenacious!


Moon is in 18 Degrees Aries.
High-spirited and courageous, you are a fighter when your emotions are aroused. The degree of force and drive that you can bring to any effort sometimes surprises others. You have hair-trigger reactions to specific stimuli and tend to “let it all hang out.” You sometimes act before you think and do things on the spur of the moment, and that sometimes gets you into trouble. Your moods change quickly — you have quite a temper, but you don’t hold grudges. Very independent, with an extremely strong and forceful personality, you are known for being impulsive, careless, reckless, foolhardy, rash and daring.

Mercury is in 22 Degrees Scorpio.
You are a born investigator. You are fascinated by secrets and mysteries and unanswered questions of any kind. When you become upset or angry, your emotional reactions are overpowering — reason and logic disappear in an uncontrollable passionate outburst. You tend to keep your thoughts secret and bottled up and this makes others regard you with suspicion. It is not that you are trying purposely to be evasive, it is just that you would rather not deal with the explosions and hassles that often occur when you reveal your true feelings and opinions. Your sense of humor tends toward sarcasm and irony.

Venus is in 25 Degrees Scorpio.
Your feelings about others are deep, powerful, intense and complex. When you like someone, you do so totally and obsessively if you do not like someone, they do not exist. Your faithfulness and loyalty to your lover is unquestioned. At times, your feelings are kept deep within you and, because they are so complex and intense, they frighten you — this is the way that you try to ignore them. But the more you try to do this, the more explosive things get when you eventually do express them.

Mars is in 27 Degrees Aquarius.
Your ideas and opinions are usually inventive and original, but sometimes they are merely eccentric and offbeat. You are altruistic — you will work hard for the attainment of group goals, as long as they meet your high standards. You tend to resent traditional authority figures because you think that your ideas are better thought out and more valuable than theirs. Very idealistic, you are a rebel WITH a cause!

Plagiarising the Poet – I’m mad, bad and dangerous to know.

Well to take my mind off the drudgery of dealing with some stupid people.

“Are you sure you want your domain name redirected there? You know that doesn’t exist so your site won’t work? No my redirecting it will not magically make the other place exist?”  All the while resisting buying the none-existent domain name to sell to the customer at a later date…

I was doing some random google searches on some poetry I wrote years ago. And blow me down with a feather I found loads of copies of them about the net.

Ok 85% of the found copies were people posting them as their own work, Now in the past this has annoyed me, and i’ve asked for them to be removed, but due to a mellowing out in my old age, I couldn’t care less anymore..  Either that or the fact that all the comments on the poems were complimentary, eased the pain :0)

Or the fact I found one professional (non-personal) site that had one of my poems on it listed as being by Lord Byron (1812). So kinda a decent compliment for people to mistake my work for that of Lord Byron!…

Well I battled the winds, the rain, the fallen trees, closed roads, and other dangers to make it to training last night.

Well, to leave the office early (Well tis hard to work in IT with no power) to get to ‘s to play “Age of Empires II”
then on to training. Where we did fun stuff which I can not mention on an open forum :0)

Alas being the highest rank there I was used as the Instructors demonstration partner (Forcing my mind to wake up fast to keep up with whats was going on)

anyway i digress…

After training I head back home, looking forward to a quick shower, coffee, some warm food and a chill out in front the TV. Only to get home to no electricity, in fact it’d been off so long even the stuff with battery backups had failed.. So Had to train, then have cold drink (which was not so bad as I found a stash of can’s) some biscuits (The only food I cound find that did not require cooking) then sitting about in candle light!  well that and the light from the laptop that I was using to watch a film!

Its actually very atmospheric watching a dark horror film in the dark with just the flickering light from candles…

The Commute to Work? OR A daily Adventure?

Well for once the BBC weather service got it correct, They said the morning’s commute traffic may be affected by the heavy storms…

I left the house this morning as normal, started driving down the hill,
Thinking it was wet, it was wetter, there was an inch of water running down the hill, a couple of inches, I’m driving down a  river…. Argggghhhh!!!

The river then ended in a nice lake, hiding the road, the banks, the ditch’s, the works.  It was then I started thinking it was  a good job i had a 4×4.
Then several Lakes later, including a fun one with a sports car stuck in the middle of it, I was hating the 4×4 without which I could have worked from home.

But, It was a fun drive into the office, floods, big trees blocking roads, It beats commuting down motorways the morning drive of over welsh mountains, across moors, through mountain passes, countryside all the way…

Anyway… Work to be done…

Its been a while since I’ve posted so I figured I should do an update. Not there is much to update.

Work: Well nothing has changed there, Its dragging on with no one pointing out the support situation needs attention. Ah well, such is life!

Training: Same Ole – Same Ole!  Still not doing enough weapon work, Still way off a black belt.

Play: Lets see, we are three weeks into the year, and its been a busy three weeks, so not much chance for playing.

What are the odds?

I logged into the dome, something I have not used in years, and the same night I do this someone I have not spoken to in over 10 years also decided to pop by in a random visit for old times sake…

Well was a nice way to waste the evening ;0)
