From Monday night’s Moon in Scorpio. This is the soldier trying to make it through my book:

“P, I’m reading this and my God but you’re bold.”

“Bold?”

“Bold. How can you write this? How can you admit… people think like this but they don’t tell anyone.Everyone is going to read this you know. Everyone.”

“What? Everyone? Who is everyone? And how should I care about everyone when I don’t even know who they are? I don’t care who reads that and what are you talking about anyway? What is upsetting you?”

“You’re trying to decide if you’re going to screw some guy in here,” he said.

I laughed. “Oh yeah, sorry about that, “I said. (What else would Mars conjunct Mercury in LIBRA do?) “But what’s wrong with that? Look, I have to do that. I am telling a story and that’s what the story is.”

“I know, I know. I know it’s the story but I’m jealous as shit! I mean I am JEAAAA-LOUS! I hate reading this. I’m not enjoying this, P. What if this was me? What if you were reading about some girl and things I was thinking about her? You’d go insane! You’d go crazy for sure.”

“Well I am insane. But you’re right. I wouldn’t like hearing anything like that. It would make my head explode so don’t tell me anything like that okay? Don’t do it, please don’t.”

“I won’t! I would never say this kind of stuff. I may think it but I would never admit it I thought it. Are you kidding? I wouldn’t admit something like this in a million years,” he said.”

“Yeah, well I would. I don’t see anything wrong with it. That’s how I write. Normally.”

“Well I know you write like this but Jesus Christ this makes me jealous to read it. I’m going insane here. I’m like a mad man. People are trying to talk to me. They’re asking me regular things and I’ve got my face in this book. They ask me something normal and I turn around and snap at them. “WHAAAAAAAAAAT? WHADDDDDYA WANT? WANNA GET PUNCHED? IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?”

I laughed. “Okay, well I am sorry about that but hey. That is not the part supposed to upset you so don’t waste too much time, okay? Just keep reading. Just read through that part and I’m sorry. I am truly sorry and you’re right. If the situation was reversed I would… I’d punch something.”

“Yeah you punch something! Me! That’s who you’d punch.”

I snorted.

“Okay, okay. I’ll call you in the morning, P. I can’t stand this but I also can’t stand not knowing so I’m going to read. Love ya, bye.”

That was the other night. Never mind the Scorpio Moon. I noticed T Mars was conjunct his Sun. Don’t tell me you can’t set your clock by this stuff because I know you can.

Any other pissed off Tauri out there? How about Scorpio?
