This was someone's signature:
God does not play dice with the universe. He does, however, hit the blackjack tables.
I just found it funny. Things are good here, Adam came over for dinner. We had ham, and it was good. I am going to try to go into work early tomorrow for a little OT. I got a speeding ticket on the way home from Pagan Pride Day, so I could use a few extra beans.
Gonna play some WoW, I think. My main character, the dwarven hunter Kharasa, is halfway to level 59.
Merry Part and Blessed Be!

A few vacation pics
More later. Work has been kind of hectic this week, first week of the month and all. I'm going to Pagan Pride Day in Erie this weekend, which should be a blast.
Having our boy Adam over for dinner this evening, so I gotta go. Merry Part and Blessed Be all!

Look what I did!
Found and killed this guy in the Canals in Stormwind. There really are crocolisks in the sewers!
Anyway, just wanted to share that. I'll try to make a real post soon.
Merry Part and Blessed Be!

Blogging from NC part 2
We got Jeff's new glasses yesterday afternoon and then played miniature golf at Jurassic Putt in Nag's Head. It was pretty fun. I won the first game of the girls, and Wendy won the second (We played in 2 groups as not to take so long. Would that others on the course would have been as considerate) Then we drove to Dirty Dick's in Avon for some seafood. I had crab cakes, Jeff had a boat of whole blue crabs. They were yummy, but seemed like a lot of work to eat. I was happy with my crab cakes. I also tried some deep fried calamari as a appetizer. Don't know what the big deal is, they tasted like onion rings. Although some of them were whole little calamaris, so it looked like you could have been eating a deep fried spider.
We spent most of the day today at the beach, as it a beautiful sunny day. Tonight we are deep frying a turkey, and having mashed potatoes and aspargus. The turkey should be ready soon. I think the plan for tomorrow is a few of us wanted to go down to Hatteras lighthouse and take some pics. I can't believe it is Wednesday already. We are having so much fun!
That's all for now, Merry Part and Blessed Be all!

Oh help. We went down to the ocean this morning and the ocean stole Jeff's glasses. He and Grant came back up and went to Wal-Mart to try to get a replacement. I'm very worried because normally, it takes his optometrist in St Marys a week to get his lenses made, because of the prescription. I feel guilty even though I know I shouldn't. I feel like he wouldn't have been in the ocean if I hadn't wanted to go. I feel like I should have known it was going to happen. Jeff doesn't blame me, but I am blaming myself. And he and Grant left before we even got back to the house, I had walked down along the beach to meet Wendy, she was asking people to keep an eye out for them. Jess walked along with us too.
I think I'm going to sit outside in the rain (without Grant's laptop, of course) and drink my tea. That suits my mood just now.
If you read this, please add your good thoughts to mine that we can replace his glasses with relative ease.
Update: Grant and Jeff called from Nag's Head. They can get his glasses for us tomorrow. So that is very very good news. Goddess Bless Optometrists in touristy places. this kind of thing must happen a lot down here.
Merry Part and Blessed Be.

Blog Things
| Your Aura is Red |
 You have a high level of emotion. This can mean passion, but it can also mean rage. Usually, you don't take these emotions out on others. You just use them as motivation - and it works! The purpose of your life: embracing all the wonders of the life, lots of travels, and tons of adventures Famous reds include: Madonna, Marilyn Monroe, Jennifer Lopez Careers for you to try: Dancer, Boxer, Surgeon |
| You Are Snow |
 Magical yet potentially destructive You are well known as fun to play with People anticipate your arrival but then are quickly sick of you You are best known for: your serenity Your dominant state: reflecting |
I don't think people anticipate my arrival but then are quickly sick of me? Readers?
| You Are Italian Food |
 Comforting yet overwhelming. People love you, but sometimes you're just too much. |
Blogthings is not being completely flattering to me today.
| You Should Rule Venus |
 Venus is a mysterious, stormy planet - shrouded in a thick layer of clouds. You are perfect to rule Venus, because you are quite emotional and volatile yourself. Your emotions change as rapidly as the weather on Venus, and both you and the planet are incomprehensible to others. While you are not a logical thinker, you are quite empathetic. You can care for and understand others, but your emotions swirl too quickly to truly understand yourself. |
| You Are A Cypress Tree |
 You are strong, adaptable, and striving to be content. You're good at taking what life has to give - even if you don't like it. A passionate lover who can't be satisfied, you are quick tempered at times. You hate loneliness, want love and affection, and need to be needed. A bit of a live wire, you love to gain knowledge any cost... and you can be careless at times. |
Okay, I think that's enough Blogthings for today.
I hope this works, it's friggin hiliarious
Several months ago, I remember Paul and Adam sitting at a gaming table trying to remember the words to a particular part of this song. We never got around to looking it up. Browsing the web yesterday evening, I went from Lacy's MySpace page to her friend Sean's, and he had it on his site. I hope you all enjoy the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny.
This weekend is the Italian Fest in Bradford. Hoping this year is better than last year. Last year the prices went up on the food and you got much smaller portions. I'm looking forward to going for dinner, eating some pizza or a meatball sub, and having fried dough for desert. Maybe I'll get to play some poppers as well.
Today I intend to do both workouts 1 and 2 on my Louise Solomon's Yoga and Pilates DVD. I ordered a few things from Amazon I hope to take on vacation, like Memoirs of a Geisha and KT Tunstall's Eye to the Telescope. Unfortunately, the tracking information is currently not available.
I think that's all for now, I'm going to eat some breakfast and maybe play a little World Of Warcraft.
Merry Part and Blessed Be!

Currently listening to:
Oral Fixation, Volume 2. I picked up this CD at Wal-Mart on Friday. I've been wanting it for awhile, but I was apprehensive because I only knew a couple of songs on it, Hips Don't Lie and Don't Bother. I really liked both songs, but I try to avoid spending $15 on a CD if I'm only going to listen to 2 tracks. But, I bought one of her other CDs, Laundry Service, only knowing 2 tracks on it, and I liked many of them, so I figured I'd gamble on her again. From what I've heard so far, I like it. And now I can hear Hips Don't Lie without having to hear a Yahoo Launchcast ad first, which is good.
On Saturday, Jeff and I went down to my parents' house in West Hickory for dinner. We had steak, chicken, shrimp skewers, baked potatoes. I also got to see Grey briefly and give him his birthday present. My mom said I should have invited him to stay for dinner, and after the pile of food we had left, I felt bad that I didn't, because there was more than enough. However, Grey did need to be at the farm by a certain time, and he might have been running late if he did stop to eat with us. Jeff and I finished the evening at my parents' by chipping some golf balls around the yard and stopping to say hi to my Aunt Evie, who was sitting on her porch.
On Sunday, Jeff and I went shopping in Olean. We found him a new pair of sneakers (identical to the previous pair) and I found a new swimsuit for vacation at the Bon-Ton. It's cute, it's royal blue with white flowers and it has a cover-up that matches. Good sale too, orignally the set was around $65 and I got it for about $30. Jeff also bought a new PS2 game at EB, Star Wars Battlefront II, which he is playing right now. We had lunch at Friendly's. We tried the featured sundae for dessert, something called Caramel Cone Crunch. It was Nuts over Caramel ice cream, which is caramel flavored and has nuts in it, with hot fudge and crumbled sugar cone sprinkled on it, and whipped cream on top. It was very tasty.
The week got off to a good start at work, I was very busy today, which made the time go quickly. Only 13 days until we go to North Carolina! I'm so excited!
Merry Part and Blessed Be! And aren't links fun? I can waste hours on the Internet just following links...

V for Vendetta is out on DVD now
V: Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.
I am sure we will own this movie at some point, right now, we suspect that they will come out with a special edition DVD, so we are waiting for that. Hugo Weaving was marvelous. Watching the movie in the theater, I laughed, I cried, I thrilled to the horror of a government that had manipulated its people to rule them with fear. And the scary part was it wasn't a fantasy world, this wasn't someplace you've never heard of, it was set in England, in a time not too far from our own. It could be our time. It could happen here. Also, the cinematography is amazing, dark and harsh.
Figured it was time for an update. Things are a little slow at work, so I thought I'd work on this a bit. I'm excited because I'm going to a Reconstructionist event on the 13th in Warren. It's a Libation to Hermes, the Greek God of travel. Reconstructionists research the old pagan religions, like the religion of the Ancient Greeks, the Norse, the Druids, etc, and try to make their personal practice as close to those ways as possible. Gitana does a Greek Reconstructionist ritual every month in Warren. I went to the Libation to Poseidon back in October with Jamie. Everyone was very nice, and I've been wanting to go again, but since I started working weekends, it hasn't been possible. Also, when they are held on weekends Jeff and I are both off, I want to spend that time with him. Anyway, I am glad to get to spend some more time getting to know these people. I really like meeting other Wiccans and Pagans.
I really should try to get some work done now, so I'll end this here. Merry Part and Blessed Be everyone!

Progress
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man. - George Bernard Shaw
For some reason, I found myself struggling to remember who had said this quote as I work up this morning. Well, who originally said it. I know that MacKenzie Astin's character said it in Dream for an Insomniac, which is one of my favorite movies.
I slept a little longer than I meant to this morning, but I'm pleased with the work I got done yesterday. I emptied the heaping baskets of laundry that were in the bedroom and also started picking up the mess on my side of the bed. Today I want to straighten up the night stand on my side of the bed, try to straighten up the closet a little, and run the vacuum in there. Then hopefully, next weekend maybe, we can shop for the new mattress we've been talking about since we got our tax return.
Yesterday, I also went down to the Community Blood Bank here in Bradford on Davis St, in the same plaza as the Sports Cafe. The women there were very nice, and I was done donating in about half an hour. I'd like to donate again when I'm eligible in September, but I'm still kicking around the idea of getting a new tattoo, and if you get a tattoo or piercing you can't give for a year after. I like giving blood, it's an easy way for me to help other people, as I'm not bothered by needles and I've never (knock wood) passed out or felt more than just a touch light-headed after. Also, if you live in McKean, Elk or Warren counties and you give blood before Labor Day, you are entered into a drawing to win a snow blower!

Shuffle Quiz
I found this on Chits' myspace blog and it sounded fun. I don't have any music downloaded to this computer though, so I'm going to use my Yahoo Launchcast station. If you want to do it, here are the "rules"
Put your iTunes/Winamp/WMP on shuffle.
Say the following questions aloud, and press play.
Use the song title as the answer to the question.
NO CHEATING (Unless you only have one album in your entire library plus the music that came with the program, then write lyrics instead.).
1. How does the world see you? - Send Me On My Way, Rusted Root. So the world wants to see me gone? I don't think I like that.
2. Will I have a happy life? - Wild West Show, Big and Rich. Well, I don't know about happy but at least that sounds interesting
3. What do my friends think of me? - Too Far This Time, Toby Keith. I'm too far away for my friend to come see me right now?
4. Do people secretly lust after me? - On A Mission, Trick Pony. I don't know how to interpret that one. Maybe I'm on a mission to have people to secretly lust after me?
5. How can I make myself happy? - Truly, Madly, Deeply, Savage Garden. So to be happy I need to live as truly, madly and deeply as possible. That I do like. Plus, it's a great song.
6. What should I do with my life? - Helena, My Chemical Romance. I should find someone named Helena, I guess, if we're just using the titles. If I can use the video, that means I should get up out of my coffin at my own funeral and do ballet. That sounds much cooler.
7. Will I ever have children? - Just Around the Eyes, Faith Hill. The song is about a woman meeting someone who reminds her of an old lover. The title on its own could indicate something about a child possibly. "You know, she looks just like you, except around the eyes, she's got her daddy's eyes."
8. What is some good advice for me? - I Fall Down, U2. I do fall down a lot. I guess the advice is to be more careful.
9. How will I be remembered? - Shut Up!, Simple Plan. Apparently, I'll be remembered as someone who talked too much.
10. What's my signature dancing song? - You Were Meant For Me, Jewel. This isn't a dancing song. I think this song was supposed to be the answer to question 15.
11. What's my current theme song? - Lonely No More, Rob Thomas. Sounds good to me. I'm never lonely with Jeff. :-)
12. What do others think is my current theme song? - Happiness, Lee Ann Womack. So I radiate happiness. Sounds right to me!
13. What shall they play at my funeral? - Going Under, Evanescense. Weird choice for a funeral.
14. What type of girl/guy do I like? - Blame It On Your Heart, Patty Loveless. So I like bad men, with a penchant for extreme flirting. Well, we knew that.
15. How's my love life? - Redneck Woman, Gretchen Wilson. Well, that's what I am, and Jeff knows it and married me anyway, so I guess my love life is pretty good.
Work's been okay. Tomorrow will be my 9th day in a row to work, and I'm definitely ready to have a couple days off. I plan to do a lot of cleaning this weekend, especially in our bedroom. I'm going to do a lot of laundry.
I discovered something at work this week. Does anyone besides me remember Surge? It was a Mountain Dew competitor Coke put out sometime in the mid-late 90's. Well, it's back! Coke's just re-packaged it as Vault. Seriously, close you eyes and drink Vault. It's Surge.

I hate it when people litter!
I followed a litterbug on my way to work today. They threw out three pieces of garbage onto the highway between Bradford and Salamanca. It really made me mad.
I had a good day at work, I was very busy so the day went quickly. The Admin team bought lunch for us from Subway, so that was good. I had a turkey sub with some green peppers. I also got e-mail from Grey, which always brightens my day :-)
"History shows again and again
How nature points up the folly of men
Godzilla!"
Heard this song on the way home today, and it reminded me of the litterbug. I hope Godzilla smashes her green Chevy Cavalier.
Jeff went golfing this morning for the first time with his dad. He has returned home unscathed, and seems to have had a good time.
I'm currently looking for something to spend my $25 Amazon rewards gift certificate on. I've got some different CDs and books I'd like, but I've juet got too many to pick from, and I really don't want to go over the $25 by too much. I'm also watching Attack of the Show, live from ComicCon on G4. They were just talking to Rosario Dawson and which reminds me how much I want to see Clerks 2. I think I need to see if it's playing around here.
Ah, the Olean Carmike does have it. Maybe Jeff and I can go see it Thursday or Friday evening. Although I see My Super Ex-Girlfriend is also playing, and that also looked pretty funny. I like Uma Thurman.
Well, there you go readers. I hope the amount of links made up for the amount of real content.

No one likes a stalker!
I was just browsing the merchandise at iLL WiLL PreSS, home of Foamy, the Lord and Master of all angry squirrels. There is a cute little spaghetti strap t-shirt that says "No One Likes a Stalker!" on the front. I also rewatched some of my favorite episodes of Foamy, like Squirrel Songs and The Amityville Toaster (making breakfast spooky)
Jeff and I had a nice day. I got to watch Molto Mario on Food Network this morning. Mario Batali is awesoe. And I'm also excited about Alton Brown's new show, Feasting on Asphalt. Food Network is just great.
We had salad, soup for Jeff and a sandwich for me for lunch. I watched my soaps and we played some World Of Warcraft. We did some grocery shopping at Wal-Mart, and invited Harriet and Artie over for some chicken tomorrow.
I didn't really have much to write, I just wanted to post something so I don't go a week without any updates again. Merry Part and Blessed Be!

I like to walk!
I just got back from a long walk. I walked up to the trail that winds along the mighty Tunungwat (sp?) creek (the mighty Tuna for you UPB students and grads) to where it meets Blaisdell Hall. I walked straight from blaisdell to the parking lot over by the basketball hoops, and wrote in my notebook and communed with nature for about an hour. I probably would have stayed a little longer, but my pen ran out of ink. Then I walked home, coming straight down Campus Dr, trying to take the shortest route possible home. It still took about 25 minutes to get home. But I love seeing all the different wildflowers, and the flowers they've planted along the trail and on campus. I like seeing the different people on the trail. There was a woman on a bike pulling her son in a little trailer behind her, and he waved to me and said hello. I also saw an older woman getting onto the trail when I was on my way home. She had a bicycle with a basket, and the basket looked just like the one of my first bike. It had plastic flowers on it. I like the satisfied, sweaty feeling I have right now. I even like the blisters forming on my feet.
Plans for the evening, make dinner, we're doing porkchops on the grill with my specialty, mac and cheese, on the side. Got to get working now, those chops need to marinate for a little while.
More later, perhaps. Merry Part and Blessed Be!

We were wrong, Paul
It's not ogre-chuks or bow-chuks.
It's Beaver-chuks!
See Flintlocke's Guide to Azeroth's latest strip for an explanation.
Well, an explanation of the Beaver-chuks. Explaining the origins of bow-chuks and ogre-chuks would take many hours and result in you needing therapy. I don't know why I though ogres riding giant trikes down a grassy hill with lances would be neat, but... It was my first attempt at DM'ing.
Today Jeff and I went to the Highlands Gathering at Letchworth State Park. The park is beautiful, it's set around a deep gorge on the Genesee River with 3 sets of waterfalls. The Highlands Gathering apparently wasn't as impressive as last year. There were only two merchants, although they had some nice stuff. We watched one of the games, which involved burly men trying to pitch a 20 pound bag over a 24 foot bar with a pitchfork.
I think that's all for now, WoW beckons.

For the 4th of July, Jeff and I went down and had dinner with my folks. My Grandpa Harry came up for dinner also. Dinner was great, we had steak, fried potatoes, Texas sheet cake, and strawberries with Cool Whip. We bought a bunch of fireworks in Bradford, at Wal-Mart and at a fireworks tent and set them off in my parent's yard around 10. We also gave a bunch of fireworks to Brandon, our old neighbor from up on Pleasant St. It's interesting, in some ways, America's 4th of July is like a big, secular Midsummer's Festival.
Grey also came down to my folks from the farm on the 4th to give me an awesome present. He made me a beautiful staff. I really, really love it and I can't wait to use it.
Grey gives me such neat witchy things. He also gave me my gorgeous chalice a few years back. Jeff also gives me neat witchy things. He got me a copper bird bath for Yule that can be used as a scrying bowl, it's also great for holding candles. Jeff also bought me my current Witchcraft journal, it's got natural recycled paper, a wooden spine, and actual leaves on the cover.
Boy, I am one lucky Witch :-)

Expansion for WoW pushed back to October 29th
grr... It's a good thing Jeff asked the guy at EB when the World Of Warcraft expansion was coming out and not me. I might have had an aneurysm. Not really. But I'm still pretty unhappy that I have to wait until the end of October to start my new characters. Kharasa made it to level 52 yesterday. Maybe I'll make it my goal to get her to 60 and get my epic mount before the expansion. I doubt I will though. My other characters are too distracting. I'm really enjoying playing my warlock again, I can't wait til she and Jeff's mage get to level 40 and get our mounts. Mine's free, so I figure I can help him with his.
That's about all here. I worked today until almost 2 PM. I had to get on the phones 3 times. I couldn't believe we only had 12 people on the phones for the 2nd day of the month. The beginning of the month is always crazy busy.
Trying to get supper ready. Merry Part and Blessed Be all!
