<p>Or at least that&#8217;s what I thought my horoscope said the other day and I was so excited about that.  I do think I&#8217;m ready for a unicorn, whatever that may entail I&#8217;m sure that I have what&#8217;s necessary.</p>
<p>Hope everyone had a good long weekend.  Sunday I went to the LA County Fair and had a lot of fun.  My favorite thing to do is pet the farm animals.  The sheep are my favorite, they&#8217;re softer and more cuddly than the goats and a sign at the fair said that they make good pets.  I plan on getting one.  The piglets were adorable too, but I eat a lot of pork, so I think that would make me feel a bit uncomfortable.  I think meat is the optimal food for humans to eat, but I wish it didn&#8217;t come from animals.  I try to separate the two objects in my mind. <img src='http://mariettakeays.com/wordpress/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_neutral.gif' alt=':|' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Another thing I did a lot of this weekend was practice my guitar.  I am amazed that I can play simple songs now, that is so super cool to me because for many years I just stared at my guitar with a few lackluster attempts to learn to play which would last no more than a few weeks.  I think I&#8217;ve broken some kind of mental barrier between &#8216;I can&#8217;t play guitar&#8217; and &#8216;I can play guitar&#8217;. I feel extraordinarily jubilant!  Quite a lot of the time in life after completing a task I think &#8216;If I&#8217;d known how easy that would be I would have done it long ago&#8217;.  We really are our own biggest obstacles in life.  I&#8217;m still waiting for some calluses to form to protect my left hand fingers against the metal strings, they are super resistant to being anything but soft, squashy, and vulnerable.  I understand where they are coming from though.  My guitar is a electric hollow body, she&#8217;s very pretty with yummy brown and amber colors, mother-of-pearl inlays, and gold-colored hardware.  I will post a pic as soon as I have a good one.  To go with my guitar I also have an fairly big amp and a processor that gives my hollow-body a fat acoustic guitar sound &#8211; awesome!!!  My gift to myself once I get to a certain level of proficiency is a nice acoustic guitar so I can play more mobiley.  I&#8217;m thinking campfires, picnics, that sort of thing. <img src='http://mariettakeays.com/wordpress/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-60 alignright" style="border: 4px solid black;" title="Joyous sheepiness!" src="http://mariettakeays.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/IMG_4571e-300x225.jpg" alt="Joyous sheepiness!" width="300" height="225" />I have my CSS class tonight, so hopefully that goes well, since that prof was such a poop last week, but I&#8217;m not worried, she probably feels bad about <a title="what happened last week...." href="http://mariettakeays.com/wordpress/2009/09/04/hello-world/">the incident</a> too.  So far, I have actually learned more about CSS in my Dynamic Web Database online class &#8211; I guess between the two I&#8217;ll be pretty proficient at CSS by Chrismastime.  I can&#8217;t get over how into coding I am &#8211; weird.  Never in a million years would I have thought I had a predilection towards that.</p>
<p>Pacifica is moving along slooooooowly, but what can you do?  Some things, especially big things, just cannot be rushed.  All I can say about it is that our business plan is extremely fluid, but it has to be in this economy.  We are considering, right now, moving the operation to Hawaii because there just seems to be more flying opportunities there.  Hopefully next week I will have some more concrete information for you.</p>
