Hectic Eclectic
I had a great set of days off. I was incredibly busy, but I feel like I've accomplished so much. Let's check the list....- I'm going to finish my handwritten work on the runes this weekend
Ok, this didn't get done, but I worked on them quite a bit AND I put in motion the makings of my own rune set. I've attempted to make them before, but hopeful this time I make them work.
- I'm going look through my library (my actual library, not the one in my head) and see what I have that tickles me in the way of wicca/northern gods.
I found a copy of Bucklands Complete Book of Witchcraft that I'd bought over a year ago, laying on the shelf with loose papers stuffed inside. I brought it up to camp to read, study, work from, find who stuffed it full of paper (I know it was me, I usually make strange notes and stick them in things, like some sort of treasure hunt for a future me).
- I'm going to start (and hopefully finish) chapter 3 of MotM.
BWAHAHAHA!!! I'm almost done Chapter 3!!! I'll hopefully finish it today and get it up.
- I'm going to start preparing for Beltane, working with the assumption that I will be in camp for it.
Ok, I didn't do this. BUT I brought Bucklands and I have access to the internet AND I'm pretty sure that the loose papers in the book have something to do with Beltane, since it was about this time last year that I looked at the book.
- I'm going to plant my herbs (rosemary, peppermint and lemon balm).
This I did. I bought one of those "mini greenhouse" things, knowing that my thumb doesn't do green, so hopefully that works. If not, I've decided I'm going to try to find my herbs at the greenhouse and transplant them. I don't know why I can't grow things...
Apart from all this, I saw Julian Austin on Thursday night when I got home. He's a country singer who came to our sleepy little town, and though I don't like country music, Diane and I went to be social. All in all, it wasn't so bad. I drank, yelled "what?" a lot, watched two morons get into a fight and had some dink try to pick up my girlfriend in front of me while letting me know "that's your first problem".
Friday was a day of acupuncture and shopping. I picked up 4 of the brand new Episode III Star Wars action figures. I felt guilty for about 2.4 seconds. Oh, I love toys.
Saturday brought the Arrogant Worms to Lloydminster, so we went. It was a good show, really family oriented, but funny. For those of you unfamiliar with the Arrogant Worms, they are a musical comedy group out of Ontario, whose hits include Killer Robots from Venus, William Shakespeare's In My Cat, Mrs. Catto Loves Her Budgie, Pirates of the North Saskatchewan, etc.
Sunday, Sin City. All I can say about the movie is it was brutal. It was well done, but definitely not for the squeamish. All in all, I liked it.
Monday was tax day! Yippee!!! *insert extreme sarcasm here* I found out that I'm entitled to a refund this year, which I wasn't expecting, so it was a pleasant surprise. HOWEVER, I found out I was over paid on my 2002 return so I have to sort that out. Either the revenue Canada is going to send me a cheque and a bill or a smaller cheque.
I feel good about getting all I accomplished. I also did a bit of work around the house (hung the new light fixture and blinds in the living room). I'm also moved into my new room at camp which about twice the size of my old room. This week I plan to clean my cubical.

did your girlfriend punch him in the nose?! >:)
No, she saw me getting mad, so we left. She's not a puncher, and I'm more of a teeth and claws man, myself.
I thought so too, but Diane didn't talk to me for three days last time I tried to defend her honour.
