agreed to let us buy!!! But we had not decided when to buy."
-expect new edition of Cherie Herald to feature snipits of the life of JJ Lin cause he and I have a lot in common, and I feel that we may be existing in parallel lives.can I get in trouble for pointing out other blogs? What are blog rules? So many things to discover in this new blog world I've thrown myself into.

So I've decided to reinstate "The Cherie Herald" but in blog form. Gone are the days where I would sit behind my desk at work typing away on Microsoft word -converting word to PDF, and then distributing my labors of love and frustration to all my "subscribers" via email. However, its seems technology has passed me by and I don't fully know how to access all the wonderful features that blog world probably offers- nor do I feel that I will ever be up to speed on such matters. I don't even have an ipod, nor do I have a cd player in my car. I have mixed cassette tapes, which is a labor of love. Mixed tapes require much more forethought then does the ipod or even the cd- because if I don't like a song I have to fast forward through it, which requires me fasting forward, pressing play- seeing where in the song I've forwarded to, and then either forwarding or rewinding again. This I would like to avoid, so I have to really think about which songs make great "car songs" and which songs are more "chill at home" songs- cause no one wants Jeff Buckley coming through the speakers when you are in the mood for speed. Plus I feel my "coolness factor" greatly increases when this occurs:
"What are you up to tonight?"
"Oh...nothing , just making a mixed tape"
"A WHAT?"
and then I see that little glimmer in their eye where I know they are thinking - that Cherie is really something else! A one of a kind, a real keeper.
Now I must admit that it will be a bit tougher to have the gusto I once did while writing the office versions of the Cherie Herald. Those were the days when I was filled with boredom and frustration and could afford to spend 8 hours searching the internet for good material to put into the herald- cause I was at work, in an office, as some sort of distributing manager or whatever it is I did. In short , I was miserable and it turns out that I am pretty good at being hilarious when I'm miserable. In fact when I'm happy I'm probably not funny at all.
You are probably sleeping. I've bored you to death. You are not even listening to me anymore- furthermore it just occurred to me that I'm in essence talking to myself. I've reached a whole new level of lame.
Since it's late in the evening and I have to get back to work I'll get to the "meat and potatoes" of the herald- a saying which I hate. I am going to thus conjure up what I feel may be the more "eastern" inspired version of that phrase the "fish and rice" of the herald.
The Horoscopes- Bar Themed
Aries
Your bar needs to be bright and sunny, and it needs to leave you with that burning feeling because you've met someone at the bar, were "not too safe" , and "acquired something". Go to the doctor and get checked, if you are suspicious of something its probably cause you have something.
Taurus
For some reason , Taurus just always conveys boring. I'm thinking stainless steal, bright lights, and gin and tonics. Simple, clean, no fun. Sort of like how Pic Wicks use to be fun and then it burned down and then they rebuilt it but took all the fun out of it.
Gemini
Gosh darn it I can't get the friggin' typing to not be bold. There it goes. Stupid blog. I miss my PDF format.
Cancer
Whatever bar your in, its probably not going to lead to anything good unless you turn off the phone, give your car keys to someone else, and wear a blindfold.
Leo
Darts and dancing. Something with pink flamingos. I'm seeing pink flamingos and linoleum siding, the smell of stale cigarettes, and a barking dog
Virgo
Wherever it is you'll be happy and it'll be wonderful.
Libra
why are there so many damn signs and why can't I properly work the bold machine. I'm friggin' tired and I'm sick of writing papers. If Ivan starts chewing on plastic again I swear he's getting it. Oh he's going for it ...friggin' cat!
Scorpio
Back alley knife fight. Get on it
Sagittarius
I'm having self-esteem issues. I don't think I can live up to Heralds of the past. and my cat keeps chewing on wires. What's wrong with him? I need advice.
Capricorn, Aquarius , and Pisces walk into a bar, they have a drink and they go home.
Alright, I'm out.
Lames herald ever.
It was just a warm up, I'm a bit stiff from my 3 year break.
