Group dynamics are tricky right now. There are too many cooks in the kitchen, and no one wants to be stuck peeling the potatoes. In this crowd of egos, the best role for you is observer. Watch for different ideas and help organize them. Keep people focused on the task at hand, and help them avoid going off on tangents. In the end, you’ll have made the most valuable contribution by being the person who kept everyone else in check. Important people will take note of everything you did.

You can be a pain in the rear – just ask your friends! Despite your pedantic proclivities, they still love you. Now, how do you convince that certain someone to overlook any crankiness? Let your inner beauty peek through your fickle facade.

The conditions at home may feel somewhat shaky, but there’s really no need to fret. All this surface turmoil is just that – on the surface. The two of you have exactly what you need to make do in this moment.

Fantasies of moving home to mom and dad should be all the incentive you need to keep working. Bringing home the bacon by hook or by crook might not feel really great, but imagine the alternatives.
