Items x 3

Item the First: Goals
Percent of 2012 that is already over: 4.09% (15/366 days)
Percent of my 2,500 mile goal completed: 5.7% (142.62/2,500 miles)

Not too bad. Going to be more difficult once I start work (and school at some point), though.

Item the Second: Frivolity
This is something I surprisingly haven’t come across before today. “Each of the 53 cards represents a day in the year; therefore for every birthday there is a card that holds a profile for you. This is called a Birth Card, and the profile of this card represents your personality and characteristics.”

So in the spirit of “Claudia’s blog loves to explore frivolity on the internet,” here is my card reading + extra info!

I am a Ten of Spades.
The Workaholic Card. Ten of Spades people can be very materialistic and workaholic types and when they are, their home life always suffers, and they suffer with it…There are many spiritual influences present in their life path that can make these people the masters of their destiny and lead them to great heights in helping others. However, there is also the pull towards material accomplishment that can blind them to their possibilities and limit their growth potential. As Spades they have the opportunity to transcend the material through spiritual awareness…these people are capable of great, unattached spiritual love and can have everything they want if they look to their higher sides for direction and guidance. Having both Karma Cards that reside in the Neptune line of the Life Spread can create a tendency towards addictive behavior. Combine that with their drive and the tendency to do everything ‘all the way’ and you find a personality that often goes to extremes, in both good things and bad. They learn through experience and experience life in its fullest. The ups and downs can be dramatic in some cases. The Ten of Spades will meet with endings in this life designed to teach them the value of letting go of personal attachments to ideas and lifestyles. Meeting this challenge, they can live to experience the heights of spiritual awareness and understanding which is a part of their destiny.

Some of the Ten of Spades Issues Concerning Relationships
Highly ambitious and creative, they can become indecisive in the love arena which can lead to problems. They are often unsure of what they truly want in love matters, or they continually attract romantic partners that cannot make the commitment. In either case the outcome is the same – changes and fluctuations in the romantic life…they are very giving and loving and only need to find a way to balance out their desire for a family life with their naturally intense, ambitious nature.

Info about the Spades suit: Spades are the suit of wisdom and wisdom can only be obtained through experience. Though a Clubs may have wealth of knowledge, their knowledge is, by definition, inferior to wisdom. And all Spades people know this. These are the workers of the deck. All the workaholic cards are Spades and any Spades person can be accused of it at one time or the other…Spades are more interested in doing their jobs well than talking about them or becoming too emotionally involved with others. Spades can be stubborn and don’t like it when others try to control them.

Info about Tens: You are a person of personal accomplishment and like to be applauded by many for your work. You tend to overdo things. You are ambitious and can be very successful.

Item the Third: Humor

“Extendended” indeed.
