Why do I look at my horror-scope?

Years back in the mists of the computer age, I came across, or someone told me about Yahoo, then the latest buzzword in hi-tech, whatever that meant then as well. I investigated Yahoo and discovered that I could design my own home page on my computer, meaning that every time I switched the computer on, my own page with its personal and private information would be there containing everything that I wanted to see. So I went to work on it.

My homepage

It has my small stock portfolio which is supposed to update automatically every 10 minutes but has been stuck for the past 6 months. It has the latest world headlines, saving me from visiting the newspapers. It has the weather in case I don’t know if I’m blowing hot or cold and lets me check the weather in any city in the world; it has the lotto results which I don’t need because I never win, something on the latest books and the movies, and so on.

The horoscope

At the time I put my homepage together, Yahoo offered a link to a Horoscope site and I thought why not? I added it and have almost never looked at it since. When it comes to things like horoscopes, I prefer to take a Payday Loan and go to the bookstore and buy the most reliable reference book I can find on the subject. It is usually the most expensive one as well.

Pisces (2/19-3/20)

Yesterday, for some unknown reason, I read my horoscope on my homepage. Yes, I know what all you guys are yelling – there is a reason! Here’s what I read:

“Add some personal touches to any and all writing you do today otherwise, your creative writing skills are in danger of rusting away! Even a little flourish to your signature on that check to the phone company says something about you. Don’t wait until you are asked to write a novel or wedding speech. You have to try to integrate your creativity in absolutely everything you do, including emails and form letters.”

That’s it.

Questions

First of all, how does this horoscope – or its writer – know that I write?

Second question, why did ‘it’ pick that day? Isn’t today’s writing also in danger of ‘rusting away’?

I hope you know what you are doing with all these messages you are sending me, I depend on my creative ability in many ways, and here you are saying that if I don’t this or that everything may fall apart. Thanks you for your advice. I assure you that I work very hard on ‘integrating my creativity’ into absolutely everything I do, including emails and form letters. I hope I’m getting better at it all the time.

I was thrown

I have to admit that the short horoscope threw me in many ways. It came as a surprise and as a shock. It did a great job on me and I immediately deleted 3 articles that I thought were not up to my personal level of satisfaction.
