Say what?

Yep.
Mercury is definitely retrograde. Miscommunications abound!
I've only had my first real problem with it today (yesterday?) -- which is pretty good considering it went retrograde on the 18th or 19th this month.
Here's what happened to me:
I sent an email asking for directions. I got a reply with an offer to be picked up instead. I replied to that, turning down the offer, and still needing directions.
I waited. And waited. No return email.
What the hell? Am I just supposed to stay home, or what?
See, that's where Mercury entered.
I was getting replies, but on my voice mail. I'm on dial-up, so I had no idea. I'm -by now- impatiently staring at my screen, wondering what the hell is going on. I start getting frustrated (Mercury again), and start venting as soon as my husband walks in the door (poor guy).
I finally get an email...

...telling me to check my voice mail. *laugh*

Sure enough, I had four messages waiting for me, and one of them had the directions I was waiting for! :D

Aren't miscommunications fun? And they happen every time Mercury goes into retrograde. It messes with electronic stuff, too.
Hmmm... maybe that's why I was having so much trouble online today/yesterday...
