MY SIX MINUTES STARTS.....NOW!

This summer, my eldest bought a book and shared it with me. It was one of the most fascinating books I had read in a long time. It was a very easy read too which is good because the older I get, the less interest and ability I have to read long winded, fact-filled books. Partly due to me just not wanting to anymore and partly because I need glasses and reading isn't as pleasurable as it once was. Reading things on computer is a little easier and the irony is, reading off of the monitor is probably making my eyes worse! (But I digress)

The name of the book was, I believe, "PostSecret." Have you ever heard of it? It's a collection of postcards people had sent to this guy and on the post cards were some deep, dark secret! Some of the postcards were just funny as hell, some were troubling, others very thought provoking. And a few of them,...I could have sent in.

The other day I was visiting Pilar's blog and lo and behold, under the catagory of favorite sites, she had, POST SECRETS!!! I clicked and was once again fascinated. It was like 3 in the morning (prime new blog reading time) and reading some more of the post card secrets gave rise to this feeling I was reading something I shouldn't...perhaps how a little boy feels reading his big sister's diary!

For a good time and evocative reading, I strongly suggest you visit this site. I will have it posted ASAP so you can click and visit from my blog.

What is your biggest secret? Do you have one you will die with? I do. Do you think you'll send a postcard in? I will! And you'll never know it's mine.

I was doing a little experiment. I pretty much called it (I just didn't tell you!) I KNEW that the top sign for blogging would either be Gemini, Sag, Cancer or Virgo. Geminis and Virgos are both ruled by the planet of COMMUNICATION...which is MERCURY!!! Sags. rule the 9th house of publishing, higher ed., traveling and PHILOSOPHY!!! So I had a feeling that they would be very represented. They are literate and love to share their opinions and yes, philosophies!!! Cancers? Well they are very sensitive and they like to wear their emotions on their sleeve. And many of them make fantastic writers of soul!

I was pretty much spot on. But then, like I said before, been studying this stuff for 30 years! By the way, if you have any questions or want a Rubblized Nutshell version of your astrological chart...send you birthday/time of birth and location of birth. I'll shoot you out a quick profile.

Thanks so much for playing along!

YOUR SIX MINUTES STARTS.....NOW! .....

As you can tell from most of my posts, I'm into astrology! I've enjoyed studying it since my teens...in fact this year makes 30 years! I also have this knack ...well I USED TO have this knack for remembering people's birthdays once I knew it. I still remember bdays of people I didn't even like that shared my 6th grade homeroom. I know many celebrity birthdays from memory although with the advent of the internet, even if I forget, there it is for me! Who needs to remember! Now mind you, my memory is not as good as it once was so yeh, I have to write it down! And speaking of writing things down. Do you mind sharing YOUR bday? I'd like to see how many May babies we have...July's.....Decembers? How many Sagittarians are represented in the stream, how many Virgos....are you a Spring baby or a summer baby! Do you know what day you were born? Share the year if you dare!!!

I'm a Spring Baby...(May) born on the 20th, 1962....I'm a Taurus and Gemini!

O.k., your turn!!! Let's see who comes out a head after all is said and done so you better represent YO'SEF!!!! Get on the Rubble Birthday Roster!

MY TIME IS UP!

-pr-

PS) fiance was sooo cool about the hole in the wall and actually last night when I got the nerve to show him...it didn't even look that big!!! I should have known he wouldn't get angry...he's a pussy cat!
