I wish that I didn't loose your phone number cause I can use you tonight...

need to find the “Good” Taurus magnet and take a picture of that one…

Taurus, the second Sign of the Zodiac, is all about reward. Unlike the Arian's love of the game, Taureans love the rewards of the game. Think physical pleasures and material goods, for those born under this Sign revel in delicious excess. They are also a tactile lot, enjoying a tender, even sensual, touch. Taureans adore comfort and like being surrounded by pleasing, soothing things. Along these lines, they also favor a good meal and a fine wine. The good life in all its guises, whether it's the arts or art of their own making (yes, these folks are artistic as well), is heaven on Earth to the Taurean-born.

It's the Bull which is the Taurean's mascot, and along with that comes the expectation that these folks are bull-headed and stubborn. Yes, they are. Hey, this Sign has a Fixed Quality attached to it after all, so expect that things will occasionally grind to a halt. That said, Taureans don't start out with the intention of getting stuck. They simply want to get things done, and it's that steady, dogged persistence which winds up being viewed as stubbornness. Bulls are actually among the most practical and reliable members of the Zodiac, and they are happy to plod along, as it were, in pursuit of their goals. The good news for Bulls is that once they get to the finish line, they'll swaddle themselves in material goods. A self-indulgent beast? Perhaps, but if you toiled as laboriously as these folks do, you'd need some goodies, too.

Taurus is ruled by the Planet Venus, a lovely gal who didn't deny herself many things. In ancient Roman mythology, Venus was the Goddess of Love, Beauty and Pleasure, and Taureans have pretty much taken up where she left off. Bulls are fond of all things pretty, whether it's in their home, at a museum or on the stage. Life as one sweet pas de deux is how the Taurean-born like it. To onlookers, this may look like so much materialism and blessed excess, but Bulls really aren't interested in living without beauty in their lives. Beauty to the Bull also comes in the way of a happy home life, one which includes a partner and a stable relationship.

Taureans value harmony in their personal lives, so they'll work hard on keeping their mate happy. The Bull's penchant for sensual pleasures, of course, can only help things along! Bulls can also be the sappiest of sentimentalists. Will all this overweening attention to their mate turn a Bull into a possessive mess? Probably not, although these folks do have to manage their tendency to latch on a bit tight. At the end of the day, however, the Taurean-born are true romantics and loyal to the core.

The Element associated with Taurus is Earth. No pie-in-the-sky for these practical folks, since they'd much rather be on terra firma. Bulls tend toward conservatism, and this is often seen in their day-to-day behavior. No far-out schemes (that's Air) or shrieking ultimatums (more like Fire) here. Taureans far prefer to take each day slowly and steadily and work toward their ultimate goal. Along these lines, those born under this Sign are happy to stick with their projects until they have reached a successful conclusion. They are also extremely patient and dependable along the way. Does that sound earthy enough? The only kink in this well-oiled chain is the heckler in the gallery that tries to upbraid the Bull. These folks may not have a hair-trigger temper, but it's short enough. Bulls in a hissy fit can get pretty argumentative, but eventually they'll calm down and come back to center, since these folks would much rather be Zen. The Earth in this Sign does tend to act as a balancing mechanism so that things never get truly out of hand. For every one person who considers the Bull a pain, there are two who will say 'No way!' and happily take the Taurean's gentle charms any day.

Seeing as how Bulls are generally strong and well-built, it's no surprise that these folks enjoy testing their strength on the field of play. Expect to find a Bull engaged in a spirited game of hoops or mountain climbing. Hiking is also a favorite pastime, since it keeps Taureans close to their beloved earth. Indoor adventures are also favored by Bulls, which is why the opera or ballet is right up a Taurean's alley. When it comes to love, the Taurus-born are devoted, romantic and somewhat possessive. Their sensual nature has a way of erasing any mistakes! Since Taurus rules the neck and throat, Bulls would be wise to keep a silky scarf at hand, ideally in a warm (and soothing) earth tone.

The great strength of the Taurean-born is in their stability, loyalty and dogged determination. Bulls want to get the job done, and they will. What better way to get the riches they so fervently crave?

I am in all kinds of messed up.  Physically, Mentally, Spiritually.

Trying to force myself to the hospital and to the psychiatrist.

Probably should stop by a church too.

Attempting to clean the room, because it is always a good place to start when you are trying to pick up the pieces.

If it is a good bad, maybe I'll clean out the computer, update this blog a bit, and goto the gym.

But to be an Eyeore about it, I probably won't get pass cleaning my room.

Wow! You are the Erotic Powerhouse of the Romantic Food World. Your passionate personality is always one to surprise your partner with amazing nights (and afternoons and mornings). Ever since Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and basis for the word "aphrodisiac," emerged from an oyster shell in the sea, the oyster has been linked with passion. But remember, especially during Valentine's season, not to neglect life's practical demands, like paying your bills and going to work.

**sigh**  I remember last year when I finally found this theme and was able to put it up on the site.  It looked so good in my mind and I was so going to be a good little blogger and record my entire life daily.  Even at the beginning of the year, I made a resolution to do a better job blogging.

But all I've done is neglect you.  To be fair, I've neglected alot of things, esp in the last two weeks.  Which is to say that I've gone through the motions without anyone really noticing.  I can still wear a mask and costume and fool the outside world when I want to.  But inside, I have been really dying.  Even with a bump from you, and I still more depressed than ever, when I should be flying in the clouds.  It's not your fault, if anything, you have been the only oasis in my life so far, cause when I'm with you, I do forget about the stuff that is going on outside my life.

I really need to order flowers for this week.

What I need to do is get some breakfast and then work on pulling myself out of this funk.  I know that I don't have to do it alone, but with everyone having their own problems to deal with that is greater than mine, do I really have a choice?

And poor neglected blog, I will have to do something with you.  A change is def. in order.

Even when everything is not in sync, it can still be good if you know what to do.

I should have called you yesterday, but I'm glad you called me today.  And I'm glad you came over.

Maybe next time we will watch an entire movie from start to end, not from beginning to end of opening credits.

Can't wait to see you again

...not really, just poking my head out. I really should have called you last night or the night before. My loss, but I've been in a funk and it probably wouldn't have been fun. Or would it... I shouldn't have told you about Sunday. But the die has been cast, as they say. We'll see what happens. For the record, you do have pretty eyes and I really should be attracted to you, but I'm not I still think about you every day and wonder what you are doing with your life. I think about you too and wonder if you will say yes this time when he proposes to you I need to buy you a plane ticket so I can se you before you leave the contenent. I just want to wish you a happy birthday. I wish you could forgive me, but I understand. Happy Birthday to you too. I saw someone walking down the street who looked like you the other day. I should call you so we can spend the day at a museum. Or hot tubbing. Either way, it would be fun.
