For this, I wound up drawing two cards actually, and I'll explain why later on ( Read more... )

And on this day, another major trump was born. I drew The Hanged Man. This one is drawn quite similar to the Rider-Waite version, with the main figure suspended by a rope tied round one ankle, leaving him to dangle upside down. However here the figure is a scarecrow, which is fitting ( Read more... )

And now for something completely different. For today I drew the ten of Bats(swords). This depicts a prone and likely sleeping redheaded woman with ten bats hovering above her. This is somewhat of a departure from the Rider-Waite deck. In that one, a face down figure is pierced by the ten swords. Since bats don't really pierce that I know of, ( Read more... )

I did remember a stretch where it seemed like I was drawing him quite a bit and now can't remember jack squat. Guess it's time to go back to the reference on the Book of Doors. That's what it's there for at least.

Okay, back on the road again. First load's not too bad, other than the fact it's both a live load AND unload. Seriously. WTF? Whatever happened to our 70% drop and hook rate? At least the miles are great ( Read more... )
