For some reason, I have picked up a persistant cough that I cannot shake. I don’t know if I’m just picking up dust from somewhere, or if it’s indicitive of a more sinister problem. My throat is scratchy, my voice is slightly off, and if I talk outloud for too long, say, more than 10-15 […]

July 18th, 2007 · 2 Comments
Today, My Bride was kind enough to buy for me a book, which I’ve wanted for awhile, called Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner by Scott Cunningham. We found it in a small shop called Mystic Dreams here in town. I knew of the shop, from about a decade plus ago, but had not […]

Interesting Find

Drummin’ Up Something Special
July 8th, 2007 · No Comments
Tonight, I went to a drum circle.
I went with My Bride and a friend named Michelle. I’d never been to a drum circle before and really did not know what to expect. If you’ve never been to one, let me try to paint a picture for you of what it was like. Picture this:
