Look into a lit candle, and inside the bright flame you will see a dark one. Each of us has a shadow self hidden away, made up of everything we fear about who we are. –Judith Hawkes, The Heart of a Witch Yule, also known as Yuletide, Alban or Arthan, falls on the winter solstice, [...]

I got a lovely card from *-*-*deevalish”> today. Thanks. We’ve had little bits of snow in Salt Lake today and the weather-guessers on TV think we might get some of it to stick before Christmas.

Sorry for a whine post, but bear with me. I’ve been in Salt Lake for three months this weekend. I’m feeling the first real pangs of regret about that decision. I know that moving home to help out with the family and to make a fresh start of it was the right decision, but I’m [...]

I’ve fallen into a bad habit of deciding to write updates at the end of the work day so that I don’t see most replies until the following day. I came to work today all fired up to get it done before the pile o’ crap on my desk… but when I arrived we had [...]

So yesterday my brother-in-law-to-be (Brandon) promised my baby brother (Jared) that if he got at least all “C”s on his next report card, he’d take him hunting. Now, as an 8+ year vegetarian, I’m not one of those types who flies off the handle when someone else decides to eat meat. Rationally, I can’t really [...]

I’ve been Santa-hatted! Thanks *-*-*ann1962″>! I’ve spent all day trying to do our paper’s “Year in Review.” Why is it that every year I convince myself that a YAR issue is an easy, stress-free project to give us more free time through the holidays… and every year I end up working harder on this sh@t [...]

I was going to write about this yesterday, but I only had time to do the three thing meme and answer email. The large family gathering have become so rare that I feel it deserves a special lj entry. Sunday night was the big extended family (Mom’s side) Christmas party. My friends in Utah won’t [...]

I got massively motivated and completely finished my first draft of an episode for a certain online project, although with rewrites from my coauthor *-*-*deevalish”>, input from the board, and our premier schedule, it’ll be sometime in Jauary before wide release. Yesterday and Barnes and Noble, I picked up Neil Gaiman’s Smoke and Mirrors. Normally, [...]

I don’t know if anyone’s heard the story on CNN and other news outlets about the young gay man who’s principal told him he’d have to bring in a permission slip if he wanted to attend a school dance with his boyfriend. It’s a local story for me, and yesterday I spent quite a bit [...]
