► You are feeling the holiday spirit still -- so get out there and volunteer, or at least lift the spirits of someone close who's got the blues. The karma you earn is just the icing on the cake! Spending hours reflecting on your own life isn't selfish -- it's essential, especially right now. You might want to keep things lighthearted for the sake of the social situation, but that just isn't necessary! The people you'll be with will totally understand if you need to be a little bit introspective, today. You can get wild and crazy some other day, when you feel like it. Right now, follow your mood. If it tells you to stick to yourself, then do so.

Haiyaaa ...They're tapping, staking my heart or ... what?
Last night I dreamed I saw Khodokovsky. (Saturday, 28 december 2013). This is not unusual. Perhaps because there is something in him after he got out of prison. More cool thing is, he's bald. Ahem ahem. And he's more suited to his bald head. Classy.
I've said what my heart said a few days ago. Do not let Khodorkovsky go out from Ruusia political scene.
But one thing, if he is capable to replace Putin, then do it by constitutional means. Mobilizing the masses to be bloodshed just to channel the people aspirations to the legitimate government is not characteristic of graceful Russia.
Putin actually has a soft heart. He is quite argumentative and has a pretty good sense of the religious. So, do not be brutal and unconstitutional. Tell your aspirations beautifully, then the result will also be beautiful.
And you, Kovsky, get ready! Mwah.
