mercury is in retrograde-- two years ago I would have made fun of anyone paranoid enough to think astrological rhythms can explain why their car broke down or why they can't stop spilling coke on themselves. current me is now paranoid enough to completely and totally believe that that's why I broke a $3000 makerbot, fucked up a two hour wait at work, and got pulled over twice in one week. it's also why I convinced myself I love him again, despite giving no signs he thinks of me beyond an analysis vessel and car.
