When I first read the article on miscarriages four weeks ago, I wanted to re-write it for Oak Leaves with ADF in mind (it came from a Christian-leaning clergy journal). Last week, I ran the original article by mazisexton, who agreed that the source material was an excellent starting point for such an article. I think I'll be working that article up in the ( Read more... )

Today's lesson is in focused intent.

When I left for lunch, wandering down toward the Union, I realized that, while I had my copy of OL to proof, I didn't have anything to write down corrections. Too far from my office to go back and not near enough to High Street to go buy a pen, I remembered an exercise from Prometheus Rising designed to show ( Read more... )

Last weekend's discussion of shamanism on ADF-Druidry (in which I was amused to find myself called a snob for stating that ADF doesn't call things "mumbo-jumbo") was fun, but today, latexpussy pointed me to a similar discussion that sort of encapsulates how it went ( Read more... )

A few weeks ago, I created a page specifically for ariansdreams, so that she could check out the opening and closing of the Gates as I do it in solitary ritual. I think I'll also submit it to Oak Leaves.

I submitted a number of items to Oak Leaves and began another essay. I've gotten responses on some of my GSP work (some of which was rejected, though small ( Read more... )

I realize I haven't been around much. Sorry about that. I didn't look at LJ for . . . 6 or 7 days, I think. I was in Chicago last weekend, visiting family. It was a good visit. Extra bonus for getting to see a crazy religious cult that was able and willing to joke about their prayer house looking like a UFO! More on that in another post ( Read more... )

Last night, out with tesinth and singingwren, I managed to get my first reasonable meal in weeks. Even when my parents were in town, I avoided eating my fill. . . They don't need to know just how hungry I've been recently. It's something that will, I know, pass, as things do. And tesinth knows why I couldn't get my fill of steak fries at Red Robin ( Read more... )

So, as part of one of the many projects I'm working on for ADF, I was digging for articles on our website relating to the Nine Virtues. . . And I found that we have very few ( Read more... )

Well, 940 friends entries later, I'm caught up.

Or I would be, if I retained more than about 10% of that. But I read it all.

Of course, there were certain people I retained a good deal more from. Thanks for the surprise, mayden_dor. I did need that ( Read more... )

I admit, I am somewhat afraid to look at my friends pages. I suspect I will do that after work today.

I'm looking forward to a good lunch at the Union, I think, where I will edit the piece I wrote for Oak Leaves. I'm currently somewhat unhappy with it, but it'll do, I think ( Read more... )

Last night before I left work, I got some things thrown together in a list. Actually a couple of lists I've had on my plate for a while, but haven't really put them together ( Read more... )
