Two Simple Rules to Take Control
When the Lovely Wife and I decided to move last year, we had to face the fact that we had lived in the same semi-large house for nearly twenty years. We both are casual hoarders (no, we're not like those crazy people on TV, honest!). Me with books, she with yarn and craft supplies. But in the dim attic light, surrounded by possessions I had long forgotten existed, I had to admit there was more up there than ancient college texts and unfinished knitting projects.

Pisces is a Water Sign, Right?
To prepare, I did a teeny bit of research to remind myself of some things about the Zodiac. For example, Aquarius is obviously a water sign... wait. It's an air sign? Doesn't 'aqua' mean 'water'? How does that make any sense?! One second, let's look up Pisces. It's a fish, so I'm guessing water? Google says... water. Okay, we're on track again.

Recycled
Jacob looked down at the bottle he found in his hand, not remembering when he last drank from it. He tilted it back hoping for anything but only found the smell of cheap liquor. Panhandling had been hard of late... there's a sweet spot between hard luck and desperation where the change really flowed. He had been on the wrong side of desperation for too long.
