I seriously don't remember writing this...
I was lurking around, looking at some of my old poetry from the previous years... and came across this. It's mine. I know it's mine, but I don't remember writing it!! How weird is that?! I find that I like it, the more I read it. The most glowing words I've ever written have always come in brief flashes that are bright and brief.

Travel
"But how could you have expected to travel that path in thought alone; how to expect to measure the moon by the fish? No, my neighbors, never think that path is a short one; you must have lions' hearts to go by that way; it is not short and its seas are deep; you will walk it long in wonder, sometimes smiling, sometimes weeping." - Attar, ( Read more... ) -
Elusive
So school's back in session for this slacker extraordinaire. Thank goodness for Muse and his support, or I would have run off a cliff in grand fashion about a semester ago. Some people are just special in keeping us from losing what little we have left of our minds. ;)
I'm going to survive this, apparently. (Not for lack of trying.) I have ( Read more... ) -
Define Cynical
Thanks to Muse I've found some great icons to use! If you've ever heard of Ozy and Millie, you'll find this amusing. If not - go to www.ozyandmillie.com and start reading!!! According to Muse, he's the Ozy to my Millie. In honor of this delightful, and strangely frightening, statement I have uploaded a bunch of Millie icons to use on LJ. My ( Read more... ) -
Huzzah!
I got my Agathos Daimon picture up! It took some work and the resolution could certainly be better, but I'm just happy to have something of my own for a representation. The Agathos Daimon is a Greek guardian spirit, often for a household or person. No, it's not a demon, so don't even make that comparision! *grins* Though I know that some people ( Read more... ) -
I threw up
Finally. This stomach virus (according to the doc) has earned the special award as one of those rare illnesses that actually made me throw up. Trust me, that's a big deal in my book. It also means that I will run screaming at the sight of this illness again! That was the night before last when I was up until three debating on the grand ( Read more... ) -
"But if the 'sploding gets all big, won't it get bad?"
Yeah, so I was all ready to go to work on this new dragon tale, when my stomach exploded. Stupid stomach. I won't give out details; they're too disgusting. Suffice it to say that the toilet is my new best friend. Thankfully after sleeping for 12+ hours (with intermittent trips to the porcelain throne) I am feeling a lot better. I think it was ( Read more... ) -
When Goblins Attack
Well, the day after New Years Day and I'm already ready for another holiday! No I didn't stay up 'till all hours drinking myself silly. But I had a lovely evening with my darling mother and sweet boyfriend (musegryph ) to end the old and bring in the new.
So my Brian Froud "Goblins" calendar says that yesterday is New Fears Day where all the goblins ( Read more... ) -
Kangar**s, take two
So I'm going to follow Musegryph's example and post about the new community blog we're setting up with two of our library buddies. Laughing_Sphinx and Ms. A (who doesn't have an LJ yet!). We get to discuss, rant, ramble, and generally babble about our library (no names attached, of course). The Kangar** strikes again! If you don't get the Kangar** joke, I can't help ( Read more... ) -
Lazy, lazy, lazy days....
And I haven't had any for months now! But I'm back to try again. Since Muse and our latest LJ addition Laughing Sphinx have both been active I'm feeling left out. *pouts* Hmmm... I need to create an icon for my LJ from my own work. Sphinxy has been inspiring me and since Muse got me an awesome drawing book for X-mas, I'll have to plug into it ( Read more... )
