Everyone getting excited about new zodiac?

Wasn’t that a thing 5 or 10 or more years back? I could have sworn I’d heard stuff about it back in 2002 or 2003. I recall observing a friendly hippy’s zodiac chart tattoo and commenting a little foolishly that stars have moved a bit over the last 10,000 years when he explained that the “art of astrology” has been around for that long. 

Or is it some other revision? It appears to be the same stuff.

Weekend in a nutshell

Working backwards

Strange and Norell, episode 4

Dinner at ihop with van, waffles

Iced tea from a mutant at dd

No more bubble tea at Korean place

Arts fest at Anne Marie gardens

Got 2 tote bags, Poteet creature print, two log pillow puffs, Tettimer star earrings, a lot of fried food. Arranged to set up another Poteet original.

Intended to wake early for waffles, but we dallied until noon. No worries there.

Saturday, we watched Strange and Norell episode 3, and zonked on the couch.

As Allison faded in and out of wakefulness, I watched cute animal videos and youtube miscellany.

Visited target and picked up a skiff-load of Halloween loot, some jammies and tops.

Went to Sandy pony donuts, and got what were possibly the least palatable beverages in the form of bubble tea. I got black tea, She had taro.  Both were bland to flavorlessness,  with few tapioca bubbles and  No sweetness save for what I added after the fact.

Visited ginas cantina with s.I.r.s.

Chapter Two: How Is Lady Pole? (2015)

Whilst Norrell is celebrated for a daring illusion, persuading the French that the channel is full of English ships, John Segundus and Mr Honeyfoot visit Jonathan and his wife Arabella, introducing them to Mr Norrell. Norrell is impressed by Jonathan’s intuitive form of magic and takes him on as his apprentice though he is dismissive of the younger man’s belief that all magic stems from the Raven King, the last practitioner of magic in England some three centuries ago. Lady Pole meanwhile is subject to disturbing dreams, imagining herself in Fairy-land, and Norrell summons the Gentleman, who explains that this was the bargain for her revival, which cannot be reversed. The Gentleman also encounters Pole’s valet Stephen Black, transporting him too to Fairy-land, where he is promised that he shall be a king. When Lady Pole explains her predicament to Arabella Stephen swears her to secrecy lest the lady be thought mad.
Jonathan amazes the onlookers, incurring Norrell’s envy, when he re-floats a stricken ship with horses conjured out of sand, prompting the prime minister. Lord Liverpool, to suggest he goes to Portugal to help the English in the Peninsular War against the French.
