May is a good month
Let’s see what May promises to bring…
Astrology for writers,editors,filmmakers
Aries: Slow to make changes, you may not have noticed early last month when a huge psychic item went up for bids…your long term health and happiness. Go back to the 8th or thereabouts..what was the crisis? did you make life changes accordingly or did you just put a bandaid on the wound?
So I trotted back to my blog entries around the 8th (see, that’s one of the great things about having a blog - it’s like a date book without the boring appointment stuff.) I didn’t really have a crisis then - except for the yahoo messenger crisis. I did have my, ‘are they SEALs or aren’t they’, crisis earlier in the month, so maybe that’s what this is referring to. Leave it to me to be early for the eclipse. But who cares, because it’s May.
May brings my wedding anniversary and the anniversary of us buying our house. Fitting that we have to go before our town’s zoning board in May to get a variance for the whole kitchen project we’re doing. It’s also the month that we finally got a doctor to figure out one of the most important problems the three year old was having when she was not-quite-the-one-year-old. I like May.
Dear Editor:
I like May. It would be a great time for a sale. I’m running out of band-aids, so you might want to hurry. I do, however, have an abundance of Alpha male heroes who need good homes. They keep putting their feet up on the furniture, so please hurry.

“Leo: Even though you have some good reports on last month’s progress, you still don’t have the control you’d like to have. There is no cure, only the chance to learn how to be a better team player.”
What kind of crap is that? Dear editor, I have an incurable disease, so buy my manuscripts so I can play with your editorial team?
Yay for anniversaries! And I think your editor letter might work. I hear they like giving stray animals and alpha males good homes.

I’m not an editor, but I’ll take one of the stray alpha males.

Steph, you’re a hoot. Heck, I’m running out of band-aids, too. May…my hubby’s birthday is tomorrow and my oldest son’s is the 24th.

Congrats on that anniversary.
at Larissa.
BTW–I’ve tagged you. Take a look at my blog to see what it means.

Congrats on the anniversaries, and a great letter!

Hmmm, what do you think would happen if you really sent a letter like that to an editor? I’d hope they’d at least acknowledge it.
Anyway, Congrats on the anniverseries and here’s to a great May!

Thanks for all the anniversary wishes!
Larissa - your letter might need a little work, but you’ve got the general idea down…
Jerri - yay on the May birthdays!
Sasha & Lynn - be careful of wishing for stray alpha males…they have ways of traveling.
Olga - glad you like the letter.
Emily - if i send it, I’d probably sign the name, Larissa Ione, just to see the kind of reception I’d get. That way the restraining order would be in her name…:wink:
