Heart it races, Horoscope Wednesday
TAURUS April 20-May 20 Spontaneity should never be undervalued, Taurus. Lay foundations that are tried and true, but don’t forget to inject play, adventure, and passion into them.

Seguir only sounds like secure
Here’s the internet broom sweeping the path up to my stoop. Window open. Summer seems to retreat, and I’ll do the same. Beer and breeze will make me remember it isn’t capitulation.

Today is a new day — be interested in what it has to offer. (SFBG) I dreamed you were a member of an indigenous tribe in what Westerners call New Guinea.
