So... I've been having an aggressively bad week (including my father going in for surgery and one meeting that reduced me to crying my eyes out for the entire drive home from work) - only found out belatedly that Mercury was in retrograde and just went direct on the 7th. (For those that don't know - when Mercury in Retrograde, all things communication and travel-related will be AFU.)

Thought I was out of the woods, but heard from someone who actually knows what she's talking about that one should lay low until the 18th or so because something else is going on as well (with Pluto, I think?)

So, in the meantime, I've been cheering myself up with this:

Winter Bells

It's a sweet little flash game. Nothing blows up or splatters, which I know will turn most people off it right there, but it's calming and mindless.
