Mary's Thoughts

I've been reading the book that Bridget gave me on Wicca and it's pretty good. I love looking in the New Age sections of bookstores but so many of the books there seem so fluffy with no real substance. This one is pretty good (Wicca for the Solitary Practitioner). I love how in the introduction it says, "If you want to perform magic, this book is not for you." These New Age religions aren't about casting spells and curses and what not but respecting the world and the energies around you. It's about keeping balance. It reminds me of the end of Kung Fu Panda that there is no secret ingredient. The secret is YOU.

Why I stopped being a brain-dead liberal

Never have I read a piece that makes more sense. He doesn't bash either side. He simply says what I've been saying all along. All sides are essential to politics.

I would probably make this longer (like I would put more research into it) but right now I'm just writing a simple quip...

Geraldine Ferraro made remarks on how Obama would not have gotten as far as he did if he were white. After some extensive research, I have determined that if Obama were white, he would look like the following...

Hello 2007!!

Holy shit I can't believe all that has happened this year.

Yesterday, Julian ran D&D with his friend James and me. It was fun. I got a baby pet dragon turtle!!! Then, we had a huge dinner at KOTR. So much sushi @_@ and holy crap did that Plum Wine I had go straight to my head.

I had loads of fun these last two weeks. It's gonna suck to go back to my semi-prison but it is almost done. I should just suck it up.

I don't have anything else to add except I get my cell phone on Sundays! Give me text messages or voice messages!! :D

WHY DO I MEET ONLY GAY MEN?! >.<

I've been having nothing but weird dreams since I've come to Portland. There was first the catfight dream I had with Sarah then Batman the Opera.

Then last night I had a really sad dream that took place at my old high school. I was coming for a visit and got sickingly nostalgic. I was so much in fact that I began to leave crying only to run into my second and third grade teacher who comforted me. I went on and on how I have no direction and I wish things were back to being simpler. She calmed me down saying that things will get better. I just have to think things out. Miss Franco was a very influencial teacher who actually pointed me into a direction and made me feel very proud of myself. I just think it's ironic that she took the form of the consoler in this dream. I ended up feeling a little better before I turned around to leave. She said to keep in contact and I took her information but I know I won't ever contact her again.

I think this dream was spawned by what Tom and I were talking about a few days ago. When you were a kid...you knew what will happen. You knew you would go to elementry school then to junior high then to high school. You knew you would be involved in activities, you knew you would have friends. You knew you would go to college. You knew in college you would learn a lot more with the real world. But what about after college? There is what lies uncertainty. I don't care if you ended up getting a job after college, there is still at least a few days after graduation in which you think, "What now?" Life is not planned out for you anymore. I have no idea what the fuck I'm going to do. But I think to the people I graduated with...most of them I lost contact with over the years and I wonder if they're feeling the same way I am.

I don't know. The more I think, the more I consider trying to get my teaching degree.

Paladin You scored 52 Holy, 50 Tactful, 58 Natural, and 40 Arcane!

Hahah... I once heard you described as a paragon of chivalry and virtue, but just because you fight (hard) for a God doesn't mean you're virtuous in society's eyes. Especially because in this world as you could just as easily be an anti-paladin, so don't let it get to your head. That warning aside, you are pretty awesome... you are a knight in the Templar style. You are almost always found riding around on a glistening (or nightmarish, your choice) horse, with impeccibly shined armor sparkling in the ray of sunshine that God makes sure never leaves your side, with your sword making neatly coreographed swishing motions, and caught amongst a cloud of blood and bits of non-believers that splatters everything 10 yards around you save your armor and your achingly-white-toothed fanatic smile. Is there any creature of God more dangerous than the single-minded paladin riding around, smiting everything it sees?.... Thank God (most of) you are on our side. No, literally.

Okay who thinks this is not like me?! XD

I'm sorry everyone up in Maine that I could not go. Angie, thanks for the ride but I wasn't sure what I was going to do. I felt I hadn't spent enough time with my friends in Mass. I know it's late and I was inconsiderate. Sorry.

And Seth, I'm sorry that had to happen....

I have the urge to update my tarot site again...this time with a Fullmetal Alchemist deck. I have some time to think about this...like during the pointless class that is history of medicine. I want to work on these decks but my image editing skills suck ass. I already have some ideas...like Scar as Justice or Death. Ed as the Hanged Man (or Al could work too). Izumi as the Hermit. Lust (her form before her Homoculus form) and her lover for the Lovers. Meh.

Heh, this picture will probably end up changing like my interests tend to do ;)

I forgot I made this quiz a while ago. It never really caught on. But here it is again:
