Oooh... are you going to share what you picked out!? I love Amazon... and have to avoid it because I wind up with a bunch of new books every time I go on there.  (Their CD prices are pretty good too...)

I'm inclined to disagree with some of those as being indicators that a relationship definitely is not that of soul mates...as most of those things are present in ANY new relationship... (well, hopefully except for the lying, manipulating, worry, jealousy and neglect parts....).

And, just for the clincher, I'm going to throw in here that I don't necessarily believe in soul mates.... I just thought I'd put in my .02.  Wink Sounds like you may have an interesting book on your hands though.


I believe in soul groups and that soul mates are possible. And yeah, the book is interesting. I'm still reading it as time permits as I consider it "pleasure reading" rather than "serious" reading.  Grin

The two books I'm expecting in September are "Psychic Energy Codex: Awakening your Subtle Senses" by Michelle Belanger and "Vampires in Their Own Words: An Anthology of Vampire Voices" edited by Michelle Belanger. I probably won't have much time to read them during our vacation but with fall and then winter on the horizon, I'll have my reading list for the dark half of the year all set!

The two I'm expecting next week (I ordered them from an instate vendor.) are "Tactical Magick" by Seth and "Creating Magickal Entities: A Complete Guide to Entity Creation" by David Michael Cunningham. I've been looking for books on those subjects for a while now. I guess it is like the old saying. "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear." Or in this case, the book...

I've got the references I need -- something like 90 plus pages worth in a word document. Now I get to pull out what I need for the story to make sense, write the "links" I need to, again, make the story make sense, and then, I HOPE, get to write a different and much more personally satisfying ending to this particular pivotal sequence in the story!  Smiley

Well, I've posted all the Castle stuff that I have ready to go. I've decided to post it in "bite sized" pieces as I go along with the rewrite since the thought of making 300+ posts all in one session was a bit much even for me!  The spirit might be willing but I'm not sure the eyes would cooperate and I KNOW that the posterior wouldn't!  Grin I hope to be up to the "Penth goes crazy" section by the end of the weekend. That will be the last subsection in that thread. And I strongly suggest, if you haven't already read it at the Castle's original home, that you do NOT read it if you are the least bit squeamish......  muwahahahahahahahaha

I just realized that I haven't eaten since about 10:45 this morning. That probably explains why I feel like I do at the moment. I miss having someone around to remind me to eat...

I have added approximately 45 posts to the part of the Castle I've yet to post. I have edited out all the extraneous "stuff" and I'm reasonably sure that I have the new posts in the right places. [Things got a bit out of sequence and downright overlooked in the heat of the original posting!  Grin ] Rewriting what needs to be rewritten so it makes sense will be tomorrow's writing project.  Smiley With luck, I'll get enough done to justify putting it up.

Ok, I think this is where someone mentioned pics... so I'm putting them here.  Grin

Here's the hoops:



And the new tat!



Which is obviously still healing.   Tongue

Interesting design on that tattoo and I can see the pinkness around it in the photo. I bet your shirt collar irritates the hell out of it. I'd need a powerful reason to get one or to have my ears pierced any more than they already are!! [I was traumatized in my teens. Long story...]

And what in the name of all that's holy are you doing up so early?! It's Saturday, fer crying out loud!

Well, MoonCat has the computer while I go to make sense of the Darklord's problematic lovelife -- in the Castle, sillies! -- and I'm hoping to have more to post this evening. I still haven't figured out how he got into so much trouble. AND I WAS THERE!!

Well, I've gotten to a good stopping spot on the rewrites so I will have some posting to do tonight. I'm going to let MoonCat finish up her stuff before I take the computer for the night. I'll be back and posting in a couple of hours more or less.

*Yawn* The eyes are killing me   Shocked and I'm packing it in. The next batch of Castle posts is kinda involved -- you will understand when you see them -- and given that Sunday is Father's Day, it might be Tuesday or Wednesday before I get this next batch up. *Yawn* Just don't think that I've forgotten about it. I won't forget. I'll just be slaving over a hot keyboard pounding out the details. Nite everyone. Be safe.

Be safe Penth *HUGS*

Dealing with a new roundof nincompoops who join an active moms group and hello..when you see the sign on the front saying active mom's group and playgroup...I think it's safe to say there will be a lot of emails and playgroup activities...had a mom actually say to me

"Hi,
You can remove me.  I just joined a few days ago but clearly this is not the group for me.  It was my intention to join a mommy group to occasionally share time with our kids together (not to feel compelled to answer "Questions of the Day" or risk getting kicked out) and have found a better group to suit my needs.  I find it impossible to believe that you all spend enough time with your kids with the massive amount of emails that I've received over the last few days over silly subjects.  Where on earth do you find the time?  I prefer to spend my time interfacing with my child rather than a keyboard.   

I appreciate your time and please accept this as constructive feedback.  Perhaps this is the reason for lack of participation that I keep reading about within the group.

Thank you."



What the freaking fraking @#%@%@!

When she joined she wanted an active MOMS GROUP AND PLAYGROUP so she can meet other moms and kids...I think she was a lurkr or a guy.

Maybe if she had actually CHECKED her email she wouldn't have a lot of email and uhm...hello...good luck finding a group that doesn't kick her butt out for NON PARTICIPATION.

  

Being defiant isn't always a bad thing; Refusing to be belittle or struck down isn't a bad thing; Submitting is a bad thing.

Smiley Bladey. Sorry that you have to deal with this nonsense! I made some headway in the "figuring out what to do" part, including how to break all the evil spells on Penthesilea. "What evil spells?" you ask. Keep reading the Castle. In the next section, the fertilizer WILL hit the fan.

I'm taking a break from trying to bring order out of the chaos that is this batch of Castle posts. One of the "member characters" at the time seemed bound and determined to hijack the story, ignore everything else that was going on, go her own way and mess up the story I was trying to tell which involved a life changing development in my character's life. Things went a lot smoother once she and her associated thread moved on. But at this particular point in time she and it were a part of the story so I gotta deal.  Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley I will deal. I will deal. I will deal. I will deal. I will deal. I will deal. I will deal. I WILL DEAL!! [If we had a "hair tearing" smilie I'd use it here!]

The Divine Conspiracy is coming along nicely. And it looks like another female is gonna be after the Darklord's .. ahem... services.  Grin And she's a Goddess. But She is going to have to wait her turn. The line forms on the right and the end is three quarters of a mile thataway! -------->

Afternoon! I'm here finally. I spent most of the morning (not to mention part of last night! Turns out I wasn't as tired as I thought!  Grin ) doing things that can't be discussed on a PG-13 site!  Smiley  Well, you can but I'd better NOT!!  Wink Castlewise, I'm working on getting Kodiak and Penth where I want them for the big finish. Once I've got THAT set up, I'll do Act One for the monster hunt that has me stuck and see what I can do about sorting out the incomprehensible mess left behind by a female member character who shall remain nameless..
Like I said before it will probably be Tuesday or Wednesday -- and I'm thinking that it will be Wednesday unless I get on a real roll -- before I get the rest of this section up.

Bladey, I wonder if that woman ever lets her baby sleep.  Cause, you know you can't use a couple of minutes of your kid's nap time to hit the computer.....  No, then you wouldn't be interacting with your child, because well, they're asleep.  We can't have that.  Gotta instill workaholic, insomniac values early I say!

I've been thinking about increasing the "grossness factor" of this Castle section. I've decided not to. It is quite gross enough!! Shocked

I'm trying to keep an eye on the weather -- rain finally!! -- and to write something suitably pretentious that just isn't coming out like I want it to. grrrrrrrr I've got the "final pronouncement", it is the "lead in" I'm having trouble with. *snark!* [Goes to wrestle with words....]
