Mars Square Mercury Plus

So when I got the new computer I subscribed to Mobile Me in a somewhat pitiful attempt to help me keep myself organized (as though I were organized in the first place). I thought if I could for the first time really use the address book on the Air, instead of lugging a five by eight inch physical address book around with me from Silver to New York and now to Cambridge and back, when I booted up a desktop and Mobile Me'ed myself, the desktop computer's address book would automatically update. Brilliant!

Then I looked at what Mobile Me offered and went into a mild panic because it didn't say anything about linking a laptop to a desktop, just linking an iPhone or an iPod, neither of which I have, to one or the other. Mr. Mobile Me was very nice to me though and reassured me of course I could do it, so I did, and have yet to add anything to any address book anywhere, but I can't blame that on Mobile Me.

I can't blame re-transcribing an MP3 on Mobile Me, either, but I only spent three hours on it before the bell went off in my dim little brain and I realized I'd transcribed it two months ago, before I went up to Cambridge.

And to lump in a few highlights (!!!!!)  of the week as I'm finding it increasingly difficult to keep this up to date, Mercury trine Venus had me on Lands End's web site ordering two on sale funnel neck sweaters and a pair of silk long johns for my return to the Republic of Cambridge on Monday. I have no idea whatsoever what Mars trine Chiron did, unless it was me taking a deep breath over the copyediting job I have and realizing it doesn't have to be remotely perfect, it just has to make sense.

Mars square Venus this morning, and I was back at the Apple store on Broadway for the third Saturday in a row, this time at the Genius Bar having them reinstall iPhoto on the old PowerBook I'm sending to John, me being so generous and all, and then across the street at the diner wolfing down corned beef hash and eggs.

Tonight at 9:03 Jupiter opposes Chiron exactly. Perhaps its finally time to watch It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.
