Help me doctah.. .'.

...I have an inappropriate and strong urge to get severely off my face..

Well yah - so - trying to maintain a level head, momentum and motivation in spite of what I just found out:

Aside from one working month back in the USA, Rachel is now going to be on tour for around a year.

yay. :-|

So here we go, the final test of the Scorpio - Maintain monogamy and [involuntary] celebasy for 12 months.

heh - not a problem, scorpio's have excellent will power.
.. though I should remind you(and myself) that will power is used to resist existing urges.
Not that I'm having them, mind you - but it's amusing, since I was chatting to one of the customers at the cafe today who's into astrology - asked him to guess the odds of a[n anonymous] scorpio male surviving 7 months of involuntary celebacy.
He laughed his ass off and replied with "not a chance!"

.. that is, unless you say something like that to challenge my willpower ;-P

well, back to the music then..

If ever you need a Scorpio "willpower" support group, just count on me.Scorpios are survivors! :-)

Does Scorpio Rising (oops, sorry 'bout that) count? 'Cos then I understand.

And weren't you a cusp person? Perhaps it's time to explore the Sagittarian in you - the centaur, hung like a horse (whoops, sorry again) and galloping around pointing an arrow at the stars (damn, there I go again)...

hmmm, maybe it could cause a problem. Have you asked Rachel how she's gonna survive touring (?)

hehe - yes, that post is very selfishly phrased, by the sound of things, she's going to have a pretty rough time of it. Apparently at some stage they're supposed to just "magic" a new show into existence in time for the return to europe.

I tell ya man, you'd think after the last tour that the people down at the office had gained some insights into what to do and not do when trying to arrange tours with up to 18 dancers...

Though, since that one month [the "week off"] appears to be the only time they could feasibly do any choregraphy - I have to go on the assumption that everyone down at the office is either clueless, of blinded by the large dollar signs in their eyes.

Sounds familiar. As you know, I did my own office for years for just those sort of reasons. On principle I hate middle men (why be sexist? - middle people) and recently didn't go to Japan because someone wanted to blag a ride without actually doing anything very creative themselves (I can be indiscrete online, if you can) - it was only the film business (back then) that finally made me the 'offer I couldn't refuse' and I put myself in their hands for a while, but it didn't last. I can't bow my knee, and they can't take dumb insolence... Let's go 'private message' about this...
