Something Very Small

Fuck

Most of my creative effort goes toward living a functional, middle-class life--given a scattered, paltry legacy.

Charm City

Sun Trine Jupiter

Jan 03, 2014 to Jan 04, 2014

On a scale of one to 10, your charm will top out at 99 -- somewhere between lethal and devastating, that is. There's nothing you can't have, but do be careful not to aim this potent magic at anything -- or anyone -- you really don't want to conquer. Overzealous fans can be so tiring!
Love

Jupiter Quincunx Sun

Dec 29, 2013 to Jan 13, 2014

You're tickled, delighted and amazed at your good taste. But leaving out a few choice details wouldn't hurt -- especially if you want to keep this intact. And you do.
Energy

Mars Semisextile Jupiter

Jan 04, 2014 to Jan 08, 2014

Having your feelings isn't an emotional indulgence. It's something that is necessary for your mental and physical health. If you need to, take time off -- and no major decisions.
Career

Pluto Square Mc

Dec 08, 2013 to Feb 06, 2014

A relationship issue could be problematic -- in fact, it may even drive a wedge between you and your life's goal. Choose sides carefully.

You may receive some kind of windfall today, Sagittarius. It may be that a rich old relative dies and leaves you some unexpected cash. Or perhaps an investment is paying off better than you dared hope. This is just what you need to perk up your spirits! Be smart about how you handle this money. Our suggestion is that you eschew short-term gratification in favor of long-term security. You'll thank us in a few years' time.

You have a clear sense of the future now and know exactly what you need to do to be successful. However, circumstances grow complicated if you run into an unexpected obstacle in your path. Managing the situation may not be an easy task, yet it's crucial to give it your best shot. Don't go for the quick fix today; instead, set your intentions on finding a lasting solution that works for everyone involved. Keep your chin up and your eyes on the horizon as you push to achieve your goals.

Today's Sagittarius Horoscope from Cafe Astrology

January 4, 2014

There is a strong emphasis on your personal life today, although not a lot of clarity. The need for extra reassurance and security figures strongly now, so much so that you might be opening yourself up to believing something that is unrealistic or simply untrue. While there is no need to be paranoid right now, do watch for hidden agendas today, as the tendency for people to skirt the truth is strong. As well, don't set yourself up for disappointment by setting too high expectations.

An encounter or experience could deeply move you today. Even a show you watch on TV could affect you in a big way. You're especially emotional, which could include melancholy. Don't resist the tide of feeling that washes through you. That would be like trying to resist the pull of the ocean itself! An honest acceptance of your true emotions can lead you toward greater self-understanding, and that's a journey you'll surely embrace.
Bigger actually does seem better today, but the danger is that your current optimism might inflate a balloon well past the danger point of popping. Even if you believe you know when to stop, you still may realize that you've pushed it just one breath too far. Of course, once the balloon pops, you can't put any air in it at all. It's best to operate with a touch of caution sooner than to be sorry later.
Talking yourself down from a tree is virtually impossible, Sagittarius, but thank goodness you have a strong support network around you. Saturday’s moon-Neptune meetup could send you down an emotional rabbit hole. Feelings you tried to talk yourself out of in the name of being “positive” bubble up to be dealt with. One caveat: the raw, first cut at these DO contain truth but they’ll also be rather exaggerated. Call an emergency brunch with your Sex And The City posse and let them bring you back down to earth. After that, it will be easier to figure out next steps. On Sunday, do some financial planning with an eye towards austerity. Some belt-tightening is in order to get yourself back on solid ground. While you may have to delay a larger purchase, this is also motivation to ramp up your earnings. Is it time to raise your rate, Archer, or sign up for some training that can put an extra zero on your salary? Fill out paperwork and tie up loose ends. If you need to work out a payment plan, it’s better than ignoring a bill.

What about...

The tea leaf reader at last year's holiday tea predicted I would meet a boy. "Don't let him distract you from your work, it's very important." she said. I wondered who she meant, half believed and half didn't. But it was possible.

This was my crite sheet for Sculpture, my only class:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Course: Sculpture II -- Professor: Ganzglass, Marc --

Student: Margaux Robles

Final grade: C

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mid-term Comment:

From the first day Margaux has been a vital member of the class, not just contributing to discussions and work

in the studio but actively adding to the direction the class itself is taking. She is a great observer and

seeks out experiences and unexpected opportunities within each assignment. Margaux is highly motivated and

will really benefit from engaging in in-depth and expansive projects.

--Mid-term Grade A-

--Mid-term Absences: 0

Final Comment:

Margaux began the semester strong but then seemed to let off the gas mid-semester. She had interesting ideas

for projects but then either compromised them or scaled them back too much. She still contributed in class

conversations and studio work but the disparity between her engagement there and the work she did on her own

time was palpable. Her positive energy was noticeably absent from the final critique.

--Final Grade C

--Final Absences: n/a

I started hanging out with Ben in mid-November, spending most days with him until the last day of class. I worked on my owl until after it was due. I did not even put the finishing touches when Ben drove me to the train station to leave town.

This is actually happening. Should I stop it? Can I stop it? How? I am currently rather tipsy, and trying to get a simple thought on paper, but it sounds like a genuine worry. It isn't.

Ode to the fallen

In Barrytown
where the bodies lay
I saw young Kate Blake's name today
What her brother saw of the dissonant display...
hatchmarks taking over the grey

In the artist's womb with his curls unbound
He heaved his last sigh into the ultrasound
What the midwife saw, the ghost had crowned!
Broken umbrellas all over the ground

In the studio with the hearts on the door
We looked for you there cause we wanted more
What I didn't know, your heart was sore
Paint brushes scattered all over the floor

They're writing songs to put in their halls
They're making art to put on their walls
One day we die one day we die one day we die BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO

The life in carpinteria was so strong. its best elements never died.
