Mercury is about to do that retrograde thing.

Whaddaya think?

Alison Bechdel is talking in town tomorrow.  If the retrograde thing has its legendary ways, she won't communicate much, her audio-visual equipment will mess up, and I'll get hit by a car outside the theater.

Here's an explanation from a Huff Po piece:

"For those people who are not familiar with Mercury retrograde (such as those living in a cave, being held captive by aliens or because no mention of it appeared in the Wall Street Journal), please let me briefly explain.

"The planet Mercury rules our intelligence, mind, memory and, all types of communication ranging from talking and texting to writing. It also affects our self-expression, and communication style. In a more public sense, it rules commerce, computers, telephones, transportation and air travel."

So stuff involving that stuff is supposed to be more fucked up than usual.
