So I was going out to Wendys for lunch at work yesterday. As I was turning onto the street where Wendys is, my car didn't actually turn. And ended up hitting the median curb. Hard. The steering was all messed up ( Read more... )

Last Sunday I saw the movie Immortals with my lovely wifelisbet and Grovemate, robsteiner. If you are any sort practitioner of Greek religion you will most likely hate this move.

Well, today was our Grove's Fall Equinox ritual. We had a good omen and no one died.

We honor Ana, our River Goddess/Earth Mother and the Nature Spirits for Fall Equinox. It was a good time. We had a newer member do the Outsider part and it was well done. He had been inspired by illious's Outsider offering at the Summerland Festival and did a similar ( Read more... )
