Life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.
Yoda: Dark Rendezvous
"But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."
John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper
"You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."
Oh. My. Satin. I was prompted to change my password. Guys, this is MY LAST variation of password. What's it gonna be next? A new password? HOW AM I GOING TO REMEMBER IT?!

I encountered this problem not to long ago... I had to come up with something completely new... It took me a couple months to get used to it.
On another note, I feel sorry for our babysitters. Nova is so used to nursing (even though she's been going to the sitter for 3 of her 4 months of life) that she still throws a fit every time she has to wait for a bottle...

I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.

I need to save more money to get out of here... I'm not ready to be an adult but I fear that I might already be one.

Camped all weekend long, and drove 1200km to do it. I'm tired.
First night was camping nearby my house with some friends, but I woke up hungover at 4am and couldn't sleep, so I packed my things quietly and hit the road, drove 500km south to go hang out with the SO in the town he's working in, and then we went camping next to a massive waterfall, and then I drove another 600ish km back home again.
It was a good weekend, but gosh I'm tired now. Aaaaaand now I have to go to work.
I'm getting a root canal on a molar today. Mixed feelings. Not my first rodeo, but I'm looking forward to being pain free and being able to eat properly again.

My girlfriend got the truck stuck in the mud next to the driveway, this morning, so I think what *was* going to be a wonderful day outside will now be a drugged day in bed.
I think people should donate to the cause, and help raise our driveway up about 2 feet. Out of the water, at least.
I wonder if it's time to appoint someone to be in charge of The First Annual Pagan Forum Get Together, since I totally suck at planning, prepping, making reservations, and just plain getting things going with all of it.
I think taking Vicoden, Ultram and Salsalate should be more than enough to deaden pain and knock one the hell out... why can't it be so? Why am I awake?
Lastly, I think Pink Floyd is *still* awesome daydreaming music. I just need a friggen hallucinogen, now.

My plans for tomorrow:
I have an exam at 8:30 am until 10 am, then back home...
Plans for the day after tomorrow:
Pretty much the same, but the time differs.
Both are maths exams! O_O

Since I adore cats, I might write something strange or unusual in my comment.Cats are awesome!!! ^_^
So what exactly is the appropriate welcome for a kid who had a junky dad kill himself, a slow kid brother, plays the guitar like a rock god after giving up his pokeman games, finds and dedicates people to Satan and generally is a grand wizard of life in general? I feel my welcome might be..lacking.
*in case anyone is wondering the tone I'm taking..

Hubby's leaving for the move this upcoming Wednesday, and I'm gunna be stuck here another month.....not 100% sure how I feel about it. On the one hand, it'll be great to have a bit of time apart considering that's what most of our relationship has been over the years but....1) I'mma miss him, and 2) I'll be stuck by myself with the roomie who I've been feeling not 100% comfortable around due to his rather bs elitist attitude and mental/emotional control issues-both of his own, and trying to control me.
Oh well, it's only a month, and I've dealt with worse for a lot longer
