Ive been tapping away at reports tonight... finally. I should have started them 2 days ago, but ended up chatting with some funny witty folk on Friday night

Oh, do you know what that does for a Venus in Virgo native!!!

Right, off to bed! Off to dream about Jen, but will probably dream about reports instead.

Have a great night all...!!! A great day!!!! A great week!!!!

It helped me through the experience of being to the dentist for the first time in 15 years.

Must be my lucky charm ~ no work needed.

I don't have pretty teeth though, but they are good for biting, and they don't rot easily. So serving their purpose.

Cancer Moon & Virgo Venus - but not fitting the degrees (or height in some cases):

You just made me think of an interview with Christian where he said something about the English not being renowned for their dentistry. Cracked me up.

That's when you really get to connect to people, in my view.

Thanks for the pic of Mr Bale

Yeah - that's always going to be an eyesore.

Twist my arm will you? Damn, I have to yield.

Going beyond the greedy part of Pluto, sorry, I'm struggling for the right way of putting it. But accepting is a good word for the opposite.

...forcing....vs accepting

That comes with age and experience. Rather than pursuing what's not good for you no matter how much you think you want it. But rather letting what is right just come to you.

Thought this may interest you.

Sean - Aries Sun, Gemini Venus, Cancer Mars.

Same as Gregory Peck.

Seems as though you may have a thing for men in uniform.

Seriously? Think about it. I mean, you mention all those things about Sean. Does that make him more accessible than - say, Rafe? Even Colin. Who we know likes wit and is willing to take a crack at a woman 40 years his senior.

Are we basing celebrity choices based on accessibity?

---

Great question.

I think maybe they are symbolic of a type of person we like. Or an experience we lack in our every day lives.

Say, Sean. Why do the thirty and forty-something northern women like him? Easy, he could be the boy we went to school with, he's not up himself, he goes to watch the Blades, he does charity stuff. But he's charismatic, a Hollywood star. He's one of us, but he's something special

If you have a life with responsibilities, for kids, grandkids, earning a living, it's the fantasy of those days when you were young when you could just go down the pub, meet someone who's got manners and will treat you right, but who is up for a laugh and a good hard. Just like when you were 20. Just like when I was 20, should I say.

Yes, yes, yes. Totally see that and agree with that.

But the weird thing is, it's a family thing. Me and my uncle, we can't get enough of the Naval dramas. Seriously, we swap them around. He reads all the books as well.

And the military. That's my dad, too. He has read all the Sharpes. He knows all about it.

But it's just me that's got the hots for Sean.

Master and Commander, that is one of my favourite films. It's not just perving over that big naughty lad Crowe, it's all the naval history side of it.

I think someone in our family must have been a sailor.

Colin, there is the fantasy of someone who would take you seriously, listen to what you have to say, someone with depth. It's the suprise of finding that depth under the jack-the-lad image. He stands out, a Hollywood star who takes a man sleeping on the street out for dinner. He dates a writer, not a model. Age isn't a barrier. What else isn't? It makes him intriguing.

---

Well said. Love that. Because that is so spot on. There's more there. And in the perception of that depth in him you would expect that he sees that part of you as well.

You never know! Sean could easily have that metrosexual appeal. Even the blokes want to go to the pub with him. But maybe not to the back of it.
