I posted this in a bulletin on MySpace, but not everyone is on MySpace, so I figured I'd bring it here, too

Skip the 'Astrology is bullshit' responses, I'm aware

Now, for the important part

Scorpio is going through a 'trials and tribulations' phase, it's as bad as the 'transistion phase' that Tauruses had to suffer through last year, so pay attention Scorpios...We are being SEVERELY tested right now...

I haven't even talked to most of you recently (because I'm dealing with my own shit at the moment), but if you're a REAL Scorpio, you know exactly what the hell I'm rambling on about

Just keep in mind that this time of year isn't one of our best times to begin with, so it just figures that this would happen NOW...Also keep in mind that OUR time is in the fall (that's when our energy is at its peak...We rise from the ashes like the Phoenix), so all the shit you're dealing with right now, should be resolved by October-November, if we work on it now and give it all we've got

You are probably experiencing one or more of the following:

1) Financial problems
2) Problems at work
3) Car trouble
4) Things breaking and having to be fixed or replaced at home
5) Relationship problems
6) Illnesses
7) Just about anything that could make life a bit difficult

As for ME (If you're interested)

All of this has happened in the past week and a half:

1) Seri wrecked her Jeep...She's fine (Luckily and happily), but I had to bribe the towtruck driver to bring her and her vehicle to my house, out of his county, and to keep it out of their shop where they tow wrecked vehicles...$140 cash

2) The impeller broke inside of our swimming pool filter pump (the pump was only 1 month old, supposed to last for 3 years), and I STILL can't find any replacement filters for the pump

3) The receipt that I needed to get the pump replaced was the ONLY receipt (out of several) that the baby just happened to pour water on and ruin

4) After replacing and gathering all of the info that I needed to get the pump replaced and faxing it to the manufacturer, I'm pretty sure that they somehow didn't receive the fax because I haven't heard anything back...So, still no filtration for the swimming pool

5) Dustin's paycheck BOUNCED...His PAYCHECK...That NEVER happens...As a result, I can't pay our car insurance until it's straightened out (it's due by the first), and our bank account is now seriously overdrawn, WITH the resulting fees added

6) We got the front steps fixed last weekend, but now the backyard gate is broken...No idea how it happened...Has to be fixed

7) Night before last the baby was throwing up from about midnight to almost 8am...He threw up 7 times...I have no idea WHY he was throwing up, he was perfectly fine before it started, and he's completely okay (and trying to climb on top of this computer) right now

And I hadn't had any sleep, and barely have even up to now, which is making ALL of these things more difficult to deal with...I NEED mental clarity to deal with all of this...Zombies don't do this shit very well

8) The day before yesterday I received an eMail from the car insurance company about Seri's wreck, with the claim number and information, as well as a note saying that our 'insurance premium would be adjusted accordingly'...Meaning: 'You must now send us MORE money in addition to the too much you are already paying for car insurance'

9) That night, the boys were rough-housing upstairs, and broke the bathroom door so that it wouldn't open or close all the way...Gotta fix that

10) Yesterday I received a statement from the medical insurance carrier that says that PART of Seri's surgery expenses were denied because 'A questionaire requesting information pertaining to possible additional insurance carriers for the named insured was not received'...Which is incorrect, as I sent that questionaire back to them stating that she did NOT have any other medical coverage except for theirs, and they sent me back a letter saying that it had been received and claims would be processed...That was A YEAR AGO...They have processed all of her claims since then, up till now, including MOST of the charges that have to do with her surgery, except for TWO (the emergency room and surgery room charges)...That doesn't even make SENSE...But, it's one more thing to deal with and of course since I received that letter yesterday, I can't do a thing about it until Monday

11) Last night, as Dustin was leaving for work...The truck wouldn't start...Gotta fix that today (with no money, because the paycheck he put into the account yesterday doesn't even cover the deficit made by the fact that the paycheck before that one bounced)


And there's MORE, but I'll have mercy on you guys and leave it at this...I'm pretty sure you're getting the point anyway...


So...In short...Be strong Scorpios, we CAN and WILL get through all of this (because we DO), and just know that it isn't your fault, you haven't been cursed, and I sympathize with you 100%...The universe has simply decided to test our strength and abilities


And NOW we're out of toilet paper!...*sigh*
