Writers Horoscope for October 16: Today, endure the fickleness of your livelihood.

Either way, it was 3:00 AM** and you tossed and turned and tossed again.

Your spouse stumbled out to the peace and quiet of the living room couch.

Let the brooding continue…and here you had just come to terms with your own flawfulness.
