Untouched and unloved in too long :(. Plus side is the longer I stay out of the 'job' I had, the more confident I am that I can have the window I need to finish my teeth and dentures, take care of the Civic, and actually plan this thing out to do it right. It's still a priority to leave Seattle, as I just plain know too many avenues to get poo poo from Everett to Tacoma. It'll do me good, but it's not the full siren red alert safety issue it could have been. I just need to stop jerking it in the bottom of this well

From the way the hood's sprung, also bent radiator support and def. frame tweaking, since he opened the door and bent the fender.

Never open the door. That just makes more body shop work that could be avoided by going out the other door/window/whatevs.

Getting up at 5 in the morning to go sit in an office for 3 hours loving blows. But once you build a reputation as reliable, they'll call you with the leftover jobs.

I did LaborWorks between college semesters, it was rarely interesting and usually dumb poo poo like helping some dipshit landlord destroy a sewer pipe "That totally isn't in use any more"

What time is it, Eccles?

The past: Page of Swords

The Page of Swords has the mental outlook and philosophy of a child, and he is constantly fascinated with matters of the mind. As an event, the Page of Swords deals with insight and perception, and use of one's inherent mental powers. Due to its assocations with subtlety and even espionage, the Page of Swords can show either the commencement of an act of spying, or the detection of a spy.
The Page always expresses his true feelings, though he is always able to camouflage his true intent if he wants to. When he decides to throw away diplomacy and call things like he sees them, prepare for a serious reality check. Expand your mind, learn how to do new things and have fun doing them. Seek out the truth, regardless of the consequences, and try to become more adept in the use of your mind.

The Present: King of Pentacles

The King of Pentacles is a lot like King Midas - everything he touches turns to gold. He is a pillar of financial stability, with wealth and experience to share with everybody. He's similar to the Knight in that whatever he says he will do, will get done. But where the Knight takes on responsibility for the sake of responsibility, the King is in it for profit.
When he appears, know that you have reached the height of achievement and you don't need to take any more risks. Simply watch for the right time to draw money and wealth to yourself.

The Future: Judgement

This is another card of transition, like Death and the Tower, but its energy is neither violent nor catastrophic despite the fact that its power is far greater. This is the energy of creation without destruction, impossible on the material plane but certainly possible in the world of the spirit. There is rebirth not through discarding negativity, but through integration of all parts of the self. The spirit is cleansed and restored without loss or addition. It remains the same, but different.
Judgement's appearance in a reading often signals that a major change is heading your way, but unlike Death and the Tower, the change will not be a destructive one. The change is under your control, and in fact you can even turn your back on it if you wish. In time, however, you will likely regret doing so - this is another lesson of Judgement. Decisions such as the one it offers are necessary to growth and spiritual development, and you cannot run from them forever.
Judgement is also a card of cleansing, representing a time where your slate is wiped clean and you can start over, with all your debts taken care of and with nothing to worry about. Put the past behind you and look to the future, ready to begin again. Now is time for a definite step, so don't let the shadows of the past hold you back.
