Last month my full moon ritual's intention was to seek mercy and justice in terms of those dying from COVID-19. My thinking was mercy for those infected through no fault of their own, and justice for those who were infected due to their own hubris. I was working with the Mórrígan. During the course of … Continue reading Of Mercy & Justice
An informal poll
Is anyone I "know" (i.e. we have had a relationship either in person or online elsewhere) reading? You can email or text to let me know if you don't want to reply here. Is there any interest in me posting videos, à la Marco Polo?? It wouldn't take the place of the more essay-driven writing … Continue reading An informal poll
Zero to Overwhelm
This weekend I went from zero to overwhelm in five seconds. It started on Friday, when we watched a livestream of an Authority Zero concert on YouTube. I started crying towards the end, I couldn't even name why, and even typing about it is making me tear up again. I reached out to people I … Continue reading Zero to Overwhelm
Staying Busy
It's been a busy time for me. Even if you're not seeing a journal entry every day, they're happening. Some are just private. I'm realizing that I need to bite off fewer bits of what I'm working on so I don't burn out. Today was a struggle to get going. In addition to what I'm … Continue reading Staying Busy
Okay, okay, I get it! I’ll read the damned book!
Today while working on some coursework with The Irish Pagan School (which I highly recommend, by the by), I had my third recommendation to read Atomic Habits by James Clear. I ordered the damned book. The first recommendation came from one of my best and longest-termed friends, someone who knows me well and someone with … Continue reading Okay, okay, I get it! I’ll read the damned book!
Organization is a sign of… staying home
Well I certainly made inroads to my rock star status last night, but it appears I have more touring to do. RockBand 4 - Rivals is great fun. I woke up this morning and starting my new planner/organizer dealio. I found it on Instagram and I really like it so far. It's not as complicated … Continue reading Organization is a sign of… staying home
Fuckin’ Rock Band
I find so much joy in singing, so I'm dusting off Rock Band 4. I'll see you after I'm a GD rock star. Peace! #copingwithquarantine #fuckyeahrockstar
No Sleep
I knocked myself out last night. I had to. For the past week-ish, I've been waking every hour from vivid dreams - basically, I think I'm waking at the end of every dream cycle I have, and never making it into deep sleep. The dreams are about many things - COVID-19, my dad, Jasmine, things … Continue reading No Sleep
On the Eve of Week 2
Monday will make the beginning of my second week of staying home. We have a team meeting on Wednesday to talk about what comes next. I have incredibly mixed feelings. I want to work and not have to deal with the drop in income... but more than that, I want to be laid off so … Continue reading On the Eve of Week 2
War & Peace
Things resolved with my nephew - he has returned to Arizona indefinitely. I told him he would need to stay until there is no risk of infection. Based on the latest information, not only is my mom at risk because of her COPD and heart disease, so is Jeff with his blood thinners and heart … Continue reading War & Peace
