Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, Aug. 20, 2010: This year, you might opt to reorganize your daily life. You will become more effective and perhaps build in more time. If attached, sometimes a relationship could be confusing, and other times very satisfying. The key will be to work on better communication. If single, many would-be sweeties surround you. Be sure the person you choose is really the person he or she projects.
