Horoscopes

The Chinese link horoscopes to the lunar year of a person's birth. Dave and I are both Snakes, and so we share a horoscope for this year, the Year of the Tiger. According to one magazine, here it is:

It's a disastrous year for love - an affair is in the cards. But don't start snooping around behind your partner's back, as that's a lose-lose situation. This year, it's all about "out with the old, in with the new." Never mind that your business will probably lose a lot of money (if not flat out go bankrupt), this is a chance to weed out the unhappy things in life and make some changes. Thinking about quitting your job? It's a good year for that.

Makes us both feel pretty good about the changes we have planned. And I'm not putting too much stock in the love affair bit - I'll chalk it up to Dave falling in love with the Foreign Service.
