BTW if you talk to our mutual friend "R", tell him to go to the postoffice and pick up his freakin package!

I'm glad it was such a good event for you!

And, heh, yeah, doncha love that moment of shock when people realize you're, no foolin, TOTES a grownup?

I know, right? yes, I'm 43 years old, I have purple hair and tattoos and I'm a freakin tarot reader - and I look half your age! LOL! she might have even been younger than me, I couldn't tell and her features were so distorted by unpleasantness. honestly, if you think it's so stupid, why bother with it?!

yeah, I had a great time and can hardly wait for the next one. I'm also planning to do some cafe research over in Alameda next week... hoping to find a place that'll let me offer readings. might check out a couple of the friendlier pubs too. I'd love to have one evening a week where I regularly go read someplace.

atta girl! I'm so glad your first party went so well.

djmermaid October 31 2009, 20:30:45 UTC

thanks! it went better than I'd hoped!

although I would have preferred not to have to deal with the skeptics at all, apparently it is not at all uncommon - there is a mindset that by reading cards you are presenting yourself as psychic - whether you actually are or not - and people have the need to attack this for some reason. believe me, I didn't want to see into her life! really!

glad it went well, tho I admit to not wanting to know what my future looks like :) I suspect it's pretty dark out there...

thanks! no worries, you do not have to look. the tarot doesn't so much predict what WILL happen as what is LIKELY to occur if things continue as they are. the future is too malleable to make hard and fast predictions. I use it more for insight.
