And to start off the New Year right...

We have the weekly-when-I-remember-to-post-it horrorscope.

************************************************************ This week January 1 through January 7 Libra You may spend New Year's Day watching love stories or sports events on TV. Tuesday you return to reality, and you may help out a friend or neighbor or take care of a family member. Wednesday's Full Moon is in your career house, and you might have personal dilemmas regarding your present career path. Your love life should pick up enormously. You may be the happy recipient of a few admirers. Saturday you have a fun day with friends, although a few serious issues could come up for discussion. Sunday you may have a revelation through your nightly dreams.

I gotta go back to reality on Tuesday??!! I hate it when that happens! Also read up on New Year's traditions on Snopes (do not ask me how I wound up there when I should be going to sleep after working all night). I got a kick out of this tradition.

First Footing: The first person to enter your home after the stroke of midnight will influence the year you're about to have. New for old Ideally, he should be dark-haired, tall, and good-looking, and it would be even better if he came bearing certain small gifts such as a lump of coal, a silver coin, a bit of bread, a sprig of evergreen, and some salt. Blonde and redhead first footers bring bad luck, and female first footers should be shooed away before they bring disaster down on the household. Aim a gun at them if you have to, but don't let them near your door before a man crosses the threshold.

Hey, wait just a darn second here. I am usually the first one through the door since I'm usually working night shift on New Year's Eve. Maybe this explains everything!!!!
