That Guy…‘

He wasn’t a Scorpio. He was a Taurus with a Scorpio Moon. Both his Sun and Moon were square Pluto in Leo.

Okay, okay. He was a Scorpio.

Cancer rising as I recall, and I do recall. I spent some time with him. He was trying to date me and I was trying to not date him. Ever do that? In the end I won. I gave him every chance, but he kept inviting me to his house and eating in front of me. Yeah, that’s right.

He would invite me over, 6:30 or so. You know. Dinner time. I’d show up and he’d be pulling his dinner out of the oven. I was a vegetarian at the time. I stayed that way until I got pregnant, but anyway, he’d eat his bachelor dinner in front of me. Fish sticks or chicken sticks, whatever those things were, and then he’d want to watch Star Trek.

He knew I didn’t eat meat but never bothered to have anything there for me. I didn’t watch Star Trek either, but whatever.

After Star Trek was over, he wanted to sleep with me but I had other things on my mind like the fact my stomach was growling, so he was pretty much out of luck.

I spent some time with him, but we never anything off the ground romantically, and as far as I know, no one in the astrology club had any awareness of our interaction…

Then this got written:

Why I Have Not Been To an Astrology Meeting in Eight Years!

Okay, here’s what happened. Remember OJ? I bet you do. Well at the same time that was going on, Jupiter was fixing to get hit by comet Shoemaker-Levy 9! And this was the topic, at this particular meeting of one of the local clubs.

The guy presenting that night was an odd bird, because he was passionate for both astronomy and astrology in equal measure. He had a background with NASA, as I recall, and in whatever case, he was enthralled with the sky from a very young age.

He was a double Cancer, so we heard about that. We heard about his boyhood-ness, I mean. He would lie in the yard and study the stars and stuff. This is what he told the group. And he was very good speaker who’s brought along some films that were the highlight of his talk. The films were very high quality NASA stuff and besides this, he was a sports fan and a writer.

He used to predict who would win the local football games using astrological technique (composites, specifically). And he would write his opinion as to who would prevail and then sell these articles to the local paper.

He said he had dual purpose in leading the meeting. He wanted to share his knowledge, but he was also working on an article he hoped the paper would publish. He wanted to tie this comet / Jupiter event to the OJ Simpson case. And he hoped at the end of the meeting, everyone would offer their comments so that he might use them (with credit) in his article.

So there. This was the set up in the beginning.

To be continued.
