Overview: The certain person in your life who's always been so elusive is about to dramatically change their style. They're suddenly interested in your business and eager to spend time with you. Are you suspicious of this remarkable change of attitude? Good, because you should be. This isn't the day to make a fresh start with anyone. That doesn't mean that you should never give them the time of day. It just means that today they could have ulterior motives.
Career: So you win the contest. Does that make you right? Be sure it does before you even begin. It's the facts that count, not your opinion of them.
Singles: Brainstorm with friends on a project that is in need of serious help. Creative ideas can come from anywhere, so let suggestions flow freely without judgment. Call in your crush for more insight.
Couples: Do you keep secrets from your partner? It might be time to examine what you're keeping to yourself and why. You don't have to reveal everything, but being open with each other brings you closer.
Finance: Being abrasive won't solve anything, but it sure feels good at the moment. You'll let your temper get the best of you. Don't forget you'll be paying dearly later.
Food: Dieting will be a challenging test of your willpower. You're usually very committed but today will be hard. It would be easy to give in to cheesy pizza or nachos. But do yourself proud by having a teriyaki chicken rice bowl instead. You can do it.
Beauty: Buy clothes that fit properly, not ones that you'll fit into after you stick to your boot-camp exercise routine or items that camouflage your imaginary weight gain. That might mean taking your measurements.
Mom: A busy day is on tap, though you may have to watch for impulsive behavior. The young'uns may change their minds three times about what to do today -- and that's all before lunchtime. Things will go more smoothly if you stick to the schedule.
Teen: If you've been waiting for the right time to get started on something new -- like asking someone out -- now is the time. If you can't make events line up right, go for it anyway even if things seem dire.
Home: The European furniture store appeals to you today as you consider a makeover for your studio apartment. Speak with your landlord before you upgrade to those glass cabinet fronts. Maybe he or she will give you a break on the rent if you are truly fixing the place up fine.
Green: Before you get ready to fry that Tmeat (or whatever else you enjoy cooking in fat), make plans for that spent oil. You can actually reuse it. Simply filter it through a cheesecloth or coffee filter and store in a cool place. It'll degrade, so when it becomes brown or starts to smoke, that's when you call the garbage department and ask about its oil disposal policy. Never, however, dump grease down the drain. It'll make a mess of your pipes and create extra work for the waste-water treatment system.
More: If your special someone had a kangaroo pouch, you'd want to sit it in all day long so wouldn't have to be apart from them. Let me clue you in on something: They are thanking their lucky stars that they aren't marsupial. They want you to leave them the hell alone.
