always good advice

My FreeWill horoscope for this week, wherein Rob advises me to avoid stepping in Flaming Death:

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Maurice Krafft has made a career of filming
places where hot lava is flowing. *National Geographic* describes him
hiking across the crater floor of Ol Doinyo Lengai, an active volcano that's
sacred to the Maasai people in Tanzania. The ground is not erupting in
torrents of fire and burning liquid rock, but is constantly bubbling and
exuding. Through long years of experience, Krafft knows exactly where to
walk so that his shoes don't catch on fire. If you are going to attempt a
metaphorically similar adventure in the coming weeks, Cancerian, make
sure you've studied up on the ins and outs of the terrain. This is no time
for guesswork or naive faith.

Hrm... my horoscope is also about shoes. Why is that??

Mine is about being afraid of otters. *blink, blink*

I am trying to force my brain to contain the concept of terrifying otters. So far, I am failing.

That's how they lull you into a false sense of security - being cute and cuddly and doing cute human things with their hands. In reality, otters are fucking vicious bastards with a psychotic hatred of humanity. Sure, they look harmless now, but really they're just laying in wait. Soon they will rise up. Soon comes the Otterpocalypse.

Otterpopcalypse?

Very useful in walking across lava fields, shoes are.

Also in protecting ones feet from otters.

Tequila and diamonds...

I would like to believe one avoids flaming death in a way that is like breathing--done without conscious thought. However, since we are in fact human, this is clearly not the case. And even more alarming, perhaps you are about to "metaphorically" walk right into it!?!@#&*! Also, as a Taurus I feel the need to advise you there is never a time for naive faith. Never.

I suddenly feel a need to know when those Egyptian Days are, you know? Stepping carefully.

My feet are COLD today, so perhaps I'm going all right so far. ::knocks on wood::
