Top of the World

For the past few days I have been feeling particularly blue, and I'm not exactly sure why. Perhaps it's because work has slowed down. Perhaps it's because I'm facing a big challenge with the latest picture book I'm illustrating. Or perhaps it's that let-down feeling one gets after lots of celebration and socializing (my birthday and our wedding anniversary). Whatever the reason, my heart is heavy, and I can't get out of this funk. This isn't good because I've got to give a presentation of my work tonight at the monthly CANSCAIP meeting. So I'm nervous and blue. And what do I do to quell this feeling of bleh? I decide to read my horoscope, something I very rarely ever do. And here's what I read:

Clearly I am doing something wrong.

You'll be GREAT tonight. I know it!!

[Patricia]

Oh thanks, Helene! Crossing fingers and toes...

I've *seen* you making a presentation-- if you can entertain a tent-full of children, you can do anything.

May everything feel better.

Never, never, never believe what you read in your horoscope. If you don't like yours, just close your eyes and pick another sign. That would be just as accurate.

Knock 'em dead tonight, Patricia. You'll be great.

Hope you're feeling better soon.

You sound pretty darn productive to me.
Consider your funk a minor blip, ignore the horoscope and knock 'em dead tonight!
