Oh, Brezsny, I'm not sure you really get it, but it's still funny.

Capricorn horoscope from Free Will Astrology:

Throx.com sells you socks in threes, so if you lose one you have an extra to take its place. Their ingenious marketing plan resembles the approach of some romance-addicts I know, who always date two or three people just in case they get dumped by one of them. No bouts of loneliness to worry about! Which brings us to my main advice for you this week, Capricorn: Have a back-up plan. Keep an alternative handy. Make sure you won't run out of the stuff you really need.

*EDIT*
Oh, and pierceheart: in spite of your dream this morning, YOUR horoscope says this:

"Cartoonist Gary Larson defines luposlipaphobia as the fear of being pursued by timber wolves around a kitchen table while wearing socks on a newly-waxed floor. According to my reading of the astrological omens, there is a real danger you could fall victim to that deluded phobia. And it is definitely a delusion. No timber wolves will be in your immediate future. If you hope to avoid this mistaken anxiety, as well as other equally irrelevant and unproductive superstitions, you should have a nice long talk with yourself as soon as you finish reading this. Be very clear and strict and rational as you explain how important it is to be very clear and strict and rational right now."

Got that? No timber wolves. ;)

Dating a couple people at a time seems like a valid plan to me. I mean, what's the downside?

[badseed1980.livejournal.com]

Scheduling, one of them deciding they'd rather be monogamous, occasional jealousy/envy, etc. Everything has a downside. :) I just think he doesn't get it because for most people who I know who date multiple people (me included), it's not just about "having a backup".

Well not "just" about having a back-up, no.

I'm just being facetious anyway. It does seem like one isn't really putting an honest effort into a relationship if they feel the need for a back-up.

And I don't care what anyone says, cookies have no downside.

heh, the interesting thing is that I had talked with the M about ravens and wolves last night ... and didn't think myself through closing down the circle.

D'oh!

Aha! I thought that interaction might well have had something to do with the dream. :)
