I'm not sure how much I believe in astrology but I do feel very much like the Gemini I am. I've always felt like the Gemini poster child and part of that is that I seem to be a lightning rod for irony. Sometimes its big, scary irony but usually its just a constant stream of everyday little details that, when looked at thru the Gemini microscope, are ridiculous.
Take, for example, the fact that I'm signed up for a series of talks on Simplicity Parenting, but that those talks now conflict with Donovan's Suzuki piano group lessons. And speaking of Simplicity Parenting, we got a flyer for the Steel City Earth Scouts and I'm thinking of signing Donny up. Even tho his schedule would end up looking something like this:
MONDAY:
School, one hour session w/ Ms. Keely at home, practice piano
TUESDAY:
School, speech therapist visit at school, practice piano
WEDNESDAY:
School, hang out for an hour an a half with Mom before group piano lesson, Group Piano lesson.
THURSDAY:
School, visit with occupational therapist at school, one hour session w/ Ms. Keely at home, practice piano
FRIDAY:
School, private lesson w/ Ms. Kiki
SATURDAY:
Earth Scouts first Saturday of every month, the occasional playdate and/or visit to museum/library/etc., practice piano.
SUNDAY:
Only day off with both Mom AND Dad, Church, Earth Scouts every 3rd Sunday, occasional visits to Grammy and Grandpop in Squirrel Hill, practice piano.
Is this what simplicity is supposed to look like? The kid's not even 5 yet!
