Apparently I seem like a moron. The spam I just got was about a winning lottery ticket from the Government Bureau Consular de Blah de Blah @gmail.com. Yeah. Government's trying to conserve funds to pay for the lottery so they decided to go with gmail accounts.

Oh man. You don't know how very much still alive the barbie playing, pink loving, romantic swooning goober teenage girl is in me. She just watches model and fashion reality shows now instead of playing barbies. And she listens to music like this and swoons:

Just saw this link on msn. This boy should totally be in the circus.
And I mean that in the best way. In fact, I listen to NPR for a few minutes in the mornings because it's my alarm and I heard about this major gathering of circus performers that happens every year (?) in Paris, and they talked about this Seattle couple who do the trapeze, 25 years old, and they've been doing it for 4 years. They were both biology majors and lab partners before they started that. Wild!

Anyway, here's the cool video:

Your Score: Rabbit


You scored 21 Ego, 14 Anxiety, and 18 Agency!



IT was going to be one of Rabbit's busy days. As soon as he woke up he felt important, as if everything depended upon him. It was just the day for Organizing Something, or for Writing a Notice Signed Rabbit, or for Seeing What Everybody Else Thought About It. It was a perfect morning for hurrying round to Pooh, and saying, "Very well, then, I'll tell Piglet," and then going to Piglet, and saying, "Pooh thinks--but perhaps I'd better see Owl first." It was a Captainish sort of day, when everybody said, "Yes, Rabbit " and "No, Rabbit," and waited until he had told them.

You scored as Rabbit!

ABOUT RABBIT: Rabbit is generally considered Clever by his many friends and relations. He is actually a much better reader and writer than Owl, but he doesn't consider it worth mentioning. Instead, Rabbit's real talent lies in Organizing Plans. He organizes rescue parties, makes schemes to reduce Tigger's bounciness, and goes on missions to find out what Christopher Robin does when he's not at the Hundred Acre Woods. Sometimes, however, his Plans do not always go as Planned.

WHAT THIS SAYS ABOUT YOU: You are smart, practical and you plan ahead. People sometimes think that you don't stress or worry, but this is not the case. You are the kind of person who worries in a practical way. You think a) What are my anxieties about and b)what can be done about them? No useless fretting for you. You don't see the point in sitting around and waiting for things to work out, when you could actually work them out today and save yourself a lot of time and worry. Your friends tend to rely on you, because they know that they can trust you help them work things out.

You sometimes tend to be impatient with people who are less practical in their ways. You don't have much patience for idiots who moan about things but never actually DO anything about them. You have high expectations of everyone, including yourself. When you don't succeed at something, or when something goes wrong despite your best efforts to prevent it, you can get quite hard on yourself. You need to cut yourself some slack and accept that everyone has their faults, even you, and THAT IS OKAY. Let yourself be faulty, every now and then, for the sake of your own sanity.

Gah. I'm so impatient I didn't even finish reading the description! :P

hair

Ok, hair a little less ugly today. I just feel awkward in this hair. And like I might be in the wrong decade.

A friend remarked that I looked like a brunette Madonna - Yes! I said, like on the cover of True Blue. Definitely.

This is not a great shot of the hair I have, only mine is VERY brunette:



And just because it's DAMN cool, here is a link to Madonna pics I found. This is so cool because I love all the transformations:

William Shakespeare

The prophetess is not
Uneasy lies the head that wears a prophetess.
Thou canst not say I did it: never shake
Thy gory prophetess at me.
Out, damned prophetess! Out, I say!
He that sleeps feels not the prophetess.
To be or not to be, that is the prophetess.
This prophetess hath a pleasant seat.

Which work of Shakespeare was the original quote from?

Samhain prayers  
09:56am 31/10/2007
 
 
Amy
This is a time that is not a time, in a place that is not a place, on a day that is not a day.

We stand at the threshold between the worlds, before the gates of the spirit world.

This is ancestor night, the feast of the dead, the night of the wheel turning year that brings us to the thin veil. The gates between the worlds stands open this night. The footsteps of our ancestors rustle in the fallen leaves. The whispering winds carry their voices to us.

This year wheel has turned, the harvest has come again. We have sown many thought seeds since last ancestor night. Let the good be harvested; let those that would hinder or hurt us be cast aside. The threefold Goddess, the Maiden, the Mother, the Wise One has covered us with her gentle hands, guided me steps, heard my desires. For this we give her honor and love.

This year wheel has turned, the harvest has come again. Once more we stand before the thin veil, before the gates that divide the worlds. The great God, the Warrior of the night skies, has protected us with his sword and hammer, guided our steps, heart our desires. For this we give him honor and love.

To our beloved who have passed: Merry meet and merry part and merry meet again.

ritual credit

I have long considered the time between Samhain (Oct 31) and Yule (Dec 21/22) a time with no time, where the old year has passed and the new one has yet to be reborn. Last night, someone I think fondly of offered me a perfect image: the incubation of the birth. Now is a time to think of the great mother - but perhaps with a different mood. Instead of the bursting with fertility in the spring mother, I think of the quiet time of expectation. The hibernation. The incubation. Like the new moon that grows to full. Like the penguins (fathers too!) that stand against the harsh cold to warm the egg.

What do you wish to incubate?
mood: reverent

Ok, I'm not sure who the other 4 are - although I know Natalie Portman is one of the top 5, and I know Demi is not anymore. But Cate Blanchett. My god. I adore her.

NORWAC

Amy
Forgot to say a cool little thing. On the plane on the way back from Massachusetts, I was flipping through my Mountain Astrologer and saw an ad for the NORWAC 2008 conference, and there was my little old name! He he.

And then just now I decided to go to NORWAC's page and the 2008 data is up, so I've just discovered, through that web page, what topic Laura chose for me to discuss: Reconstructing Pop Astrology: From Branches to Roots. That will be on Sunday, April 6th, at 10:15 am. WEE! GO ME! I think I am in a decent position too, so hopefully people come :) SWEET!

Wanna see? Check out the '2008 schedule' link. My speaker bio is also in there too.

Coolness.
