Apparently it wasn't my year

The year of the rooster is coming to a close, and apparently it wasn't my year....well it is technically but not in terms of my ideal star alignment or something. Funny how that works. So I'm trying to get my place into shape (it's cluttered, not filthy, but then again that's what I've been telling myself for the past couple weeks, and it's been a while since this place has really been "cleaned"), get a haircut, pay all debts (finances permitting), take care of some dying plants, and hopefully make room for some new ones. Oh the joy of a new year. I really have no complaints about 2005 (lunar or solar) going but of course it's nice to start anew. So I wholeheartedly welcome the year of the dog. Bring on the new star alignments! (Boy by the next time my sign rolls around again I'll be...hm, better not to think about it.)
